Is it possible to enter Union Room and trade Pokemon with another game?

We get questions like this A LOT.
DraStic does not support Multiplayer or WiFi, AKA no you can't trade pokemon. Sorry!

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

ok as I thought. I didn't mean WiFi though, I know it isn't supported. I was hoping for the other type of connection.

What about GBA slot? Is this supported?

If you use a GBA .sav file, then yes it's supported. Read the FAQ for how to use it, I don't know how it works.

I can't find something relative to GBA slot in the FAQ. Can you show me where can I find it?

Under drastic/slot2
Place bothe the rom and save with the same name or they can be named slot2

So the nds rom harvestmn.nds need files named harvestmn.gba and harvestmn.sav or slot2.gba slot2.save

Not
Harvestmn.nds can not use harvestmn.gba and harvestmn.sav. they have to be the exact same.

If you have those files in your slot2 folder and they are named properly then drastic will automatically load the gba save data for your ds game.
This is basically how you use any slot2 (gba game) importing feature with DraStic.

Just remember your pokemon gba game save file has to meet all the requirements to be able to transfer like it would normally if it was a real cartridge in a real DS. Usually means beating the final boss and doing some other things look up the exact requirements in a gamefaqs for the pokemon game you want to import in to.

Thank you!

Have you tried poke transfer through palpark yourself? If so, after it is finished, does it save the changes in both the nds and the gba game? Meaning it will delete the Pokemon from the gba game and and add them to the nds game?

I have only used slot2 function with a couple of games like FFTA2 and a Castlevania game (can't remember which). So sorry I do not know what happens with pokemon transfers.

Can someone confirm please if after a Pokemon migration the game deletes the migrated Pokemon from the GBA game?

It is impossible for me to test it myself at the moment.
