Instead of PS4: How to play Pokémon on PC

Even if you can't play Pokémon on your PlayStation 4, it's not mandatory that you buy a new console from Nintendo especially. With the right emulator and a Pokémon ROM file, it is possible to play all Pokémon games on your PC instead.

1. To do this, first download the ROM file of the game you want from a website like "loveroms.com".
2. Abhängig davon, ob es sich bei der zuvor heruntergeladenen ROM um eine Datei für den Gameboy oder den Nintendo handelt, installieren Sie anschließend den „Gameboy Color Emulator“ oder den „Nintendo DS Emulator“ auf Ihrem PC.
3. Starten Sie den Emulator nach Abschluss der Installation und klicken Sie in diesem auf „Lade ROM“, um die ROM-Datei des Pokémon-Spiels zu öffnen.
