Are there people with the files of PokePark Jirachis?

Manaphy egg from Ranger doesn't have Wondercard?

Maybe it was already received from a previous Ranger distribution?

With a quick Google Search I found this too - http://www.pokemon.com.gr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1051 It seems to be a documentation of the Azure Flute + Manaphy Egg Wondercard location & distribution. It doesn't seem to be in English though. Edit: It's only about the Azure Flute Wondercard.

It's from a private message on the AssemblerGames forum. The user who received the message asked for a second opinion on another forum and luckily he didn't proceed with the transaction.

Maybe that's the reason. I've tried to modify the .ini file with Notepad++ without success. By the way, it didn't take much long and scammers have already started to look for unsuspicious victims online.

The steps I included in my post work for me and for the most people I tried them with. You don't have to be inside a Pokemon Center in order to receive Pokemon from multiboot roms. I tried to transfer 10ANNIVs to the save file which was used to verify the legitimatecy of shiny WISHMKRs and it worked fine, even when the game character was outside of a Pokemon Center. The additional step "Close the emulator and open NO$GBA.ini in a text editor, change "SAV/SNA File Format == Compressed (good/lz)" to 'SAV/SNA File Format == Raw'" is optional and I don't know if it is worth it. Sometimes, editing the no$gba.ini file won't let you use your no$gba save file in VBA or retail cartridges. The .SAV2 save file extension works for me the same way that .SV2 extension does.

@theSLAYER, here's a pic of the Nintndo prototype label. The text is listed below:

@Deoxyz, do those "legal reasons" involve legal agreements and contracts between an italian source and "former Nintendo employees"?

@theSLAYER, http://www.thecoverproject.net/ & www.gamegeekhq.com The second one seems to be down.

Someone could bypass this by printing new labels. There is a website for label preservation and it used to include 100% scans of the nintndo dev cart labels. I don't know if they are still on that site or if they are taken down.

Flashing GBA roms into dev/prototype cartridges is as easy as one, two, three... especially when we are talking about collectors and people who know what to do. The easier the access to rare roms, the higher the chances of someone taking advantage of them in order to make money if the scene release of the rom does not get much exposure. Also, you don't even need to have any tool in order to flash roms into dev/prototype carts. You could just spend ~$20 to get a cheap prototype cartridge and after you get the link protocol, you can have it implemented into a custom or a commercial gba flashcard which could be used for flashing the roms. There was a whole market for the protocol many years ago but it got shut down, possibly by Nintendo. I think I've made my point of view clear before. There is no need for me to repeat myself.

Nintendo dev/prototype cartridge market is pretty big in forums for collectors and most of them have the tools in order to inject roms into the cartridges. So, by having the rom available online, it should be pretty easy for some of them to try and sell more fake distribution cartridges to people who have no idea about the scene release of the gba distribution rom(s).

Let's just hope this thread will get much exposure so people will be aware of the scene release. @Deoxyz, you may want to upload the rom on popular rom hosting sites, so more people will have access to it.

Devaluation? No. There will be people though who will inject the rom into dev cartridges and try to sell these carts as official distribution carts.
