Hi guys,

I've been experiencing some speed problems when playing on the emulator, and still after reading the FAQ and lowering all my settings I couldn't get the nagging feeling that the emulator can be sped up a million-fold. I've basically been having ups and downs in emulation speed, when sometimes the game would play fine and fast, and at other times, while doing the same exact things, things would slow down to a crawl.
Now, I play this on my laptop, but this works, so get your skeptic faces off. Now. Really, I mean it.

I figured this can't be an emulator problem - and it isn't! The problem, as I've discovered today, was CPU affinity and hyper-threading.
My laptop has an I5 processor, and this, like many other dual-core processors, have both dual-core and hyperthreading. The computer sees 4 separate processors, and assigns the DeSmuME process to all 4 of them.
So if you have a dual-core machine, and WinXP/Vista/7, try this:
Go to Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DELETE)
Go to the Processes tab
Find the process called: DeSmuME.exe or DeSmuME_x64.exe
Right-click the process, and select Set Affinity
In this form, uncheck processors 1 and 3, leaving 0 and 2 checked.
Click OK - you're done.
---EDIT: Note that you will need to repeat this every time you start the emulator! These settings don't save unfortunately.
I can go all technical and explain why this works, but then I'll stay here all day typing. Just try, and please reply if this helps you.
Good luck.

In general, emulators are allowed, as most Pokémon runs use the in-game timer. However, runs performed on an emulator may be categorized differently than runs on console. In particular, all World Records must be performed on console to count. There are often multiple emulators for a given platform, which can vary in quality and make it difficult to find one that works well. Here is a list of recommended emulators so far know about for the various platforms.
Gameboy / Gameboy Color
Recommended Emulator:Gambatte. For the interested, the main source project is at https://github.com/sinamas/gambatte. As far as we are aware, the timing on Gambatte is exactly the same as on console.
BGB is used for Gold Glitched any% and Yellow glitched categories (NSC/151) because Gambatte does not emulate some glitches correctly. You can find it here.
VisualBoyAdvance can emulate Gameboy and Gameboy Color, but does not get timing or lag correct, so it should not be used.
Gameboy Advance
Recommended Emulator:VisualBoyAdvance-M. VBA-M is the best GBA emulator that we're aware of, but note that timings and lag may not be perfectly accurate.
Nintendo DS
Recommended Emulator:DeSmuME. Expect some graphical glitches, and be aware that load times differ significantly between emulator and console, so times are incomparable. If it is running slow on your computer, try to enable 'Use dynamic recompiler' under Config > Emulation Settings (only available in 0.9.9 and above).
Nintendo 3DS
As of April 2015, there are no 3DS emulators that are able to play 3DS Pokemon games. Any emulator that claims to be able to do so right now is a scam. (This may of course change in the unknown future.)
Nintendo 64

Project64 v1.6 is used by most runners. Runs using v2.0 are banned because of inaccurate timing shown here. Not much testing has been done on Nintendo 64 emulators' timing.
