DS Pokémon Platinum with Firered/Leafgreen Inserted

Hello! I am in need of some help here. I cannot figure out how to get the option to have FireRed or LeafGreen added in the dual slot. I go through the menus and cannot find that option. All other guides I’ve looked at have this option. Do I need to have the FireRed/LeafGreen rom downloaded? Is my Delta App not updated? I’m currently on Delta version 1.7.3.

Transferring data to new phone

so whether you get your Roms yourself or get it online, would transferring those copies across the internet no matter the distance cause you problems? I know generally you wanna use a VPN but if I’m setting up a new phone ima gonna wanna mirror it so it’s an exact copy to my current phone set up (for ease)

I know each piece of media has a code thata used to identify what it is but I’m not sure if DS or GBA came with those codes at that point.

I also understand most companies don’t really care about ancient game piracy so maybe I’m stressing too much, but I am curious to know.

any insight?

Alami Pokédex .deltaskin for GBA

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a new GBA skin I made recently for all the trainers out there. It is based on the Pokémon gen VI Hoenn Pokédex design.

It’s not a perfect replication of the actual design because I wanted to adapt it to feel logical and tactile on a touchscreen. I made sure to keep the game screen as big as possible for optimum gameplay, tweaking the layout so it's comfortable for everyday playing. It's landscape only for now since the design it's based on is a landscape looking device.

  • Fast Forward: You can just tap the game screen, or toggle it on/off using the speaker grills.
  • Save/Load: Quick save and quick load buttons are tucked away discretely along the top frame.
  • Screen Filter: There's a version with a custom LCD pixel overlay if you like that retro look, and a clean, unfiltered one too.
  • A+B and Start+Select macros are also there for those who need them for soft resetting, even though I haven't used them much enough to know if the tap areas are comfortable for repeated use.

📦 It's up on DeltaStyles if you want to grab it.

Hope you guys enjoy it. Cheers!

Good ROM Hacks?

Hey! I’m new to the whole Delta Emulator thing, got Unbound, Gaia, Too Many Types 1&2, Imperium, Lazarus, and Emerald Seaglass. Enjoy them all!

Are there any ROMs like them I’d enjoy? I’m mostly looking for a good story and either party EXP share or easy level up, or at the absolute least easy found Chansey/Audino grinding spots.

I love playing these ROMs and especially wanna try Rocket Edition, but can’t find confirmation whether it has party EXP.

I’m more than open to suggestions!

Delta Save Porting to 3DS Help

Please let me know if there is a better subreddit/if I’m posting in the wrong place!

I’m new to ROM Hacks and wanted to try Pokemon Lazarus. I started a play-through through the Delta emulator, since I didn’t have access to my modded 3ds for a while. Now that I have access to it I’d love to bring my entire save file over, not just a few Pokemon like I’ve seen tutorials for.

I cant seem to figure out how to get it to work! I have the .sav file from Delta, but no matter what I do I can’t seem to port it over.

Since it’s a GBA game, it won’t show up in Checkpoint, and I’m unsure where to find the correct files.

At one point I tried following a similar process by re-naming my Delta.sav and replacing the one on the 3ds- only to get a loading error. I’m honestly at a loss, since ive never really messed around with save files, let alone ROM Hack save files. Id say I’m definitely a novice when it comes to this kinda stuff.

Does anyone have any advice?

Can’t select “new game” on Mac OS

Hi there,

I downloaded Delta on App Store on my MacBook Air M4. Works fine, loaded my Pokémon GBA ROM, starts fine, I press enter at the start screen where it says “press start” then I’m taken to the screen where I select “new game” or “options”. I can use my arrows and navigate to either of these but I can’t press them. No matter what I try: enter button, space bar. I can’t select new game. Tried using mGBA and it’s the same thing. Can’t select “new game”, or “options” for that matter .

Anyone have any advice on how I can select a new game? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for any help

Need help with local wireless Entralink on Delta Emulator

Thanks to Delta I’ve been able to trade all pokemon for the National Pokédex to my Pokemon White 2 save file on my DS. Because of that I figured I could also complete the 5-star trainer card. Now I’ve completed all the Pokestar studio movies, I’ve finished the PWT, I’m on my way completing the National dex, but when I got my Entree level to 30 nothing on my Trainer Card changed.

Turned out you need both Black and White Entree levels to be level 30. Did some research on how to do that, but didn’t really get far. (In order to get the black Entree level to 30 you need to join another person from Black2 in a mission) I got on my black2 save file (Delta) and my white2 save file (DS), but they weren’t able to find each other on the C-Gear. And without that I was not able to join a mission that I started on Delta via my DS.

Is it even possible to connect Delta and the DS via the local wireless entralink? If so can someone please help me. It would be a real shame if couldn’t finish my 5 star trainer card right now. Thank you!!

So… when will non patrons get the 2.0 Update?

Hey everyone. I’ve just been asking myself when the delta 2.0 update will release for everyone. I’ve stumbled across this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Delta_Emulator/comments/1satnjq/delta_20b3_your_new_favorite/?sort=top Where it’s stated the release will be when the update finishes, which was supposed to be soon. That was one month ago. Does anyone have an idea or information I’m missing? I don’t want to come off as inpatient or something. Just hyped for the update. Thanks in advance. Have a nice day everyone. ◡̈

How to access save states on mac

I'm playing a pokemon rom hack, and I want to upload my save file into a calculator, but I'm on mac, and I can't long press on the icon with my trackpad to access the saves the normal way. Is there another way I can see my save files and export them?

Uhh Cheryl, we have a problem.

The Pokémon randomizer does in fact work on Delta, just need a laptop to install it first.

Why won’t my game hold a save?

Been playing Medabots for the GBA, it runs perfectly fine but I can’t seem to get it to hold a save file (the moment I restart I’m presented with this screen)

It’s not necessarily an issue since I can just use save states, but I was hoping to move the save file to my computer post game to do some trading between the 2 versions.

Is this just an issue with this particular game?

Is there a way to keep your saved game while uninstalling the delta app?

I’d like to uninstall the app as I get easily distracted, but I’d like to keep my saved game to play in the future. I am on an iPhone 17. Thanks in advance.

Renegade Platinum - How to change skin and controller layout?

How can I change the controller from this pink color? Also can I make the gameplay screens bigger? I feel like the controllers take up most of the real estate of my phone screen.

.sav file wont load onto the emulator after importing it.

I was playing Pokémon emerald on https://emulatorgamer.com which uses emulatorJS. I downloaded the file as .srm and converted it to .sav and used one drive to transfer it to my phone. When I hit manage save files on emerald in the delta app, click import save file, and click the .sav file nothing happens. Is there a step I am missing?
