Players may [[trade]] Pokémon between two cartridges using a [[Game Boy]] [[Game Link | Players may [[trade]] Pokémon between two cartridges using a [[Game Boy]] [[Game Link Cable]]. To take full advantage of this feature, several Pokémon are exclusive to each game of the pair, making it required that a person trade with others in order to complete their [[Pokédex]]. The Game Link Cable also makes possible battles with another player, allowing one to pit their Pokémon against new challenges. The games can trade and battle with Western versions of Red, Blue, and {{game|Yellow}}. They can also trade with Western versions of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} via the [[Time Capsule]]. Red and Blue are completely incompatible with games from [[Generation III]] onward. | ||
Trades between Pokémon games in different languages are possible in this generation; however, a Japanese game cannot connect with a non-Japanese game. The latter will always result in corruption if attempted. This is due to the fact that the games cannot automatically translate the Pokémon data from Japanese to a different language or vice versa, since there is not enough room on either cartridge for all of the text, namely kana and the Latin alphabet (a feature that [[Generation III|later became possible]]). If a battle between a Japanese game and a non-Japanese game is attempted, the battle simply does not work, with the save files left unharmed. | Trades between Pokémon games in different languages are possible in this generation; however, a Japanese game cannot connect with a non-Japanese game.
