multiplayer supports pokemon trading in RBY and Ruby/Sapphire, but not GSC - sabinscabin - 05-17-2018
I'm using mgba 0.6.3 on macOS high sierra, and pokemon trading works perfectly between yellow and blue, as well as ruby and sapphire. I simply open a new multiplayer window, and the link cable works automatically, and I'm able to trade pokemon without any issues.
However, when I try to do the same for gold/silver/crystal, it doesn't work; the game simply says "your friend is not ready", which I'm assuming indicates that the game thinks the link cable is not connected.
Is this a known bug? It's strange that link cable would work for gen 1 and gen 3 pokemon, but not gen 2.
