The website was archived and due to that is still alive:
 https://web.archive.org/web/20080417193505/http://gbfan.web.infoseek.co.jp:80/pokemon_savedata/emerald/index.html

The site is well known in Japan, you can see it often being mentioned at 2ch. It's actually like a database with save files including Event Pokemon.
We can be very thankful that this has been done because this way a big amount of Japanese 3rd Gen Events were preserved.
It was also very important for our legality research. I tried to get in touch with Ahiru to get more information, especially about those unpublic ones from Gen 1 and Gen 2, sadly without success...

Edit:
Some "wannabe collectors" were trading these Pokémon for years while hiding the URL and information about where these came from in order to have an unfair advantage over others who knew nothing about it. Ironically pretty much all of these Gen 3 Pokémon files collectors retired after this reveal in 2017, so that hit the last nail in the coffin. :D

So here is a comprehensive list of what we are missing for Japan Gen 3:
- STAMP  (Not migrated to gen 4, still holding berry)
- Sapporo Pikachu (not migrated to gen 4)
- PokePark (Taiwan) Jirachis (Only seen a few not migrated)
- Hadou Titans (We only have the 2, not even a complete set)

I can download stuff, how are you downloading it?

there were only a few I could download, so far.
Couldn't download any of the celebi.
I basically click on the link, and let the redirect pop-up a downoad.
(using save target as downloads something, but it's pure junk)

Yeah, none of the Celebi worked for me either. Probably didn't get archived

I managed to get the "no_pokemon" saves on the top of the page,
then I'm getting stuff starting from the bottom.

Got two of the tamago sets, and couldn't get the aurora one.

If you change the date on the archive to December 10th 2006, you can download the Celebi files :)

I went too far into the past (Mar 11 2005), and ended up on some page with Pikachu.

 

ANA pikachu with fly!

Not sure what you're referring to.

Everything has been .zip with .sav file inside for me (so far)

Some of the .zip archives have an error when you open them, rename these ones to .sav to get them to work (It's written on the bottom of the page)

darn.I'll try for the ones I've deleted then!
edit: the ones I dl-ed were too small, so its not correct anyway..

I decided to screenshot the relevant page details with the downloads,
since there's info on it that may prove to be useful.

@wrathsoffire76 you mind uploading the Celebi sav/zip?
Even on Dec 10, I can't get it.

 

edit:
These are the ones I've been unable to download:
1. The Celebis
2. The shiny Poochyenaas
3. 2006 Tanabata Jirachi

The files are not valid. (did you use save link as or save target as or something. that doesn't work)

If you open them in HxD, you'll see it's just html type of encoding

edit:
As far as I can tell, using the wayback machine,
for the 3 missing entries I mentioned,
they have no archived link that is working.

No worries.

In the mean time, I've uploaded all the other ones I could get:

 

@Sabresite: The Negaboshi that Ahiru has is BACD_AU_X, but the ones we have are BACD_R

Ahiru's one: 385 - ジラーチ - 49F976B0815F.pk3

One we have: 385 - ジラーチ - 8A9C15B6163B.pk3

Update: In Ahiru save, there are both kinds of PID for Negaiboshi:
emerald_irotigai_no_pokemon.sav

Both failed for me, this seems o be one of the files that we can't get :(

yeah those are missing too, but I'm not too concerned with them. (unless it has the mystery gift, then damn; I can't check, cause @suloku's mystery gift tool is oddly treated as a trojan)

Lucky 4 us, the 2006 save for XD's Pokemon, has Tanabata Jirachi from 2004, 2005 and 2006.

The missing Celebi's are the Mitsurin Celebi, which @HaxAras got for us,
and @Afepoke also recently sent it to us. (the Tanabata Jirachi's was also provided there)

I'm guessing the Poochyena wasn't saved, since it doesn't seem to be an event Pokemon.

@wrathsoffire76 once again, not a save XD
