How to Transfer Pokemon From "Ruby" to "Platinum"
The fourth-generation of "Pokemon" games --- which includes "Pokemon Platinum" --- introduced the Pal Park, which allows you to transfer Pokemon from previous "Pokemon" games. In the past, you could not transfer Pokemon from older games to newer games unless they were on the same system, due to the limitations of the hardware. However, with the Pal Park, you can transfer any Pokemon from the third-generation of "Pokemon" games released for the Game Boy Advance, including "Pokemon Ruby."
