Petty BUT very annoying Pokémon DS Problem

[JasonBurrows]

I have got some Event Pok?mon from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and also 2011 on all of my Nintendo DS Pok?mon games that I have downloaded legitimately from Nintendo WFC via Mystery Gift and I have also got some from Events that were in the United Kingdom as well.

I will admit that I have used Action Replay to get my main team to Level 100 quickly as I don't have patience to train my Pok?mon (sorry about that) and now just recently I have felt that cheating was awful and I really want to be able to start again and the ONLY thing stopping me is having a start date of sometime in 2012 and then adding all of the event Pok?mon back into the newer saves via NDS Adapter Plus and the game data looking odd...

Spoiler: Smaller Explanation

Event Example: 23/11/2009
Start Date: 21/02/2012

I am hoping that whoever reads this will understand what I am on about as sometimes I confuse myself...

Hmm... well I can see where you're coming from with the cheating guilt. I own a AR card to. I only use it to level up my Pokemon quicker, like you. But I do admit that I do own a cheated Charmander and Mew (I couldn't help it! ).

I do feel awful about it sometimes though. You know because others work hard to train their teams. But I do know that some people that own AR cards go overboard with the code privileges and end up crashing their game!

I know exactly what you mean...
Do you think that I should use my NDS Adapter Plus and backup my data on all of my games with all of the event pokemon and when I know that they are all safely backed up, delete my data on the cards and then I can restart?

If you have Nintendo Wi-Fi, why not simply trade your event Pokemon to someone who will hold them for you until you're ready? Sure the dates will be a little weird, but its better than losing them or using illegitimate(?) ways to hold onto them.

I don't have the cheating issue.
I also don't have any code cards or anyway to Backup Data.
I don't own any Event pokemon other than Victini.
I do have some traded for pokemon.
My boyfriend and I trade pokemon for information alot.
I need to get my team leveled up to face Champion Alder!

Anyway, I'd only back up your event pokemon.
Since you used a Cheat to Level your other Pokemon.
