An emulator gives you the ability to play a game like Pokémon that wasn't actually developed for PC on it anyway. Which emulator you need to play on the PC depends on which platform the Pokémon game was originally developed for.

PC: These emulators for Pokémon are available

If you want to play Pokémon on PC as well, it is only possible if you install the ROM file of the game and an emulator on the computer beforehand. Depending on which Pokémon game you want to play, there are various emulators to choose from for this. If the ROM file is a Nintendo game, you'll need the Nintendo DS emulator. If, on the other hand, you want to play a Pokémon game that was developed for the Gameboy, you can use the "Gameboy Color Emulator" or the "Gameboy Advance Emulator". However, please note here that the use of ROM files is only allowed if you have purchased them legally.
