Trademarks & copyrights
“Pokémon”, “Emerald”, and all related names, characters, logos and imagery are trademarks and copyrights of their respective owners. All rights to those are reserved to their owners.

What this tool does — and does not — do
The tool generates patch files that you apply, in your own browser, to a copy of the game that you must legally own. It does not distribute the game, does not provide a ROM, and does not host or share game files. Your ROM stays on your device and is never uploaded. You are responsible for owning a lawful copy of the original game.
No warranty
The tool is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind. You use it at your own risk; we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from its use.
