How to use eReader/Gamecube/GameBoy Player/Pokemon Ruby combination?

[Wayne McKinney]

I've got a Gamecube and a GameBoy Player. I'd like to use my eReader
to scan Pokemon Ex cards (the one with the dot codes) into my Pokemon
Ruby cartridge. I would try to do this by (1) attaching the eReader
to the Gamecube, (2) using a Link Cable to link the eReader on my
Gamecube to my Gameboy Advance SP, (3) putting the Pokemon Ruby
cartridge in the GBA, (4) turning on both systems, (5) scanning a
Pokemon Ex card, (6) going to the menu option on the eReader that lets
you connect to your GBA, (7) initiating a "connect", (8) going, in
Pokemon Ruby, to a Pokemon Center, to the 2nd floor, (9) going to
either the "trade" desk or the battle desk and trying to connect.

It doesn't matter how many times I do this, I can't seem to get either
system to recognize the other. The Gamecube says it's connecting, but
the GBA doesn't acknowledge it. The GBA says it's trying to connect
but never displays a connection. Now, the GBA I have does connect to
another GBA running Pokemon Sapphire, so I know that both the games
and the Link Cable work (and also the link ports on the GBA's).

What am I doing wrong? Is my order of connecting wrong? I'd
appreciate it if someone could post a walk-thru on how to scan eReader
cards into Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire via the Gamecube.

Thanks!
