I recently bought 2x 3DS consoles, got a friend to homebrew them, I've got all the gens up to ultra sun/moon.
I've played gens I-IV in the past, so I'm "up to" black/white, but unfortunately the roms aren't working- there is an xp lock on those games.
Also the gen I, II games are all causing the consoles to crash.. so I've got all that to work out...

in the meantime I am playing thru Emerald, but trying to work out if its possible to trade with FireRed/LeafGreen, is it possible with the DS wireless?..

Diamond/Pearl were a little bit disappointing, very little endgame? I haven't played platinum yet, people say its way better but, endgame? as in, anything after E4?

Also my friend said I should skip B/W and just play B/W2, yea or nay?
