Here's why:
* Wireless Communication: Pokemon Sapphire uses wireless communication for Mystery Events. You can connect to the game's servers through a Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection (now discontinued) to receive events.
* No Cable Required: Link cables were used for trading and battling between two Game Boy Advance systems. Mystery Events are received through a separate online connection.
However, it's important to note:
* No Longer Active: The online servers for Pokemon Sapphire are no longer active, meaning you cannot access Mystery Events through the original game.
* Emulation: Some emulators allow for unofficial Mystery Event distribution through the use of specific codes.
If you're looking to experience Mystery Events in Pokemon Sapphire, you'll need to explore options like:
* ROM Hacks: Some hacks have incorporated Mystery Events.
* Fan-made events: The Pokemon community has created fan-made events that you can try through emulators.
While you can't access official Mystery Events anymore, there are still ways to enjoy the content through other methods.
