Dongle list

Dual-slot mode, often called the dongle method, is one of the many ways that people can get Pokémon that are outside of the Sinnoh Dex, especially Pokémon that are exclusive to other regions, by using the GBA games of the series as dongles for the DS games. With one of the five Game Boy Advance games inserted into the GBA slot of a Nintendo DS while playing either Diamond or Pearl, you can find Pokémon not otherwise available in Generation IV in certain areas of Sinnoh, but only after you have unlocked the ability to use Pal Park. Using the dual-slot Mode with all five GBA games and trading version-exclusive Pokémon between Diamond and Pearl, you can get all Pokémon excluding Tangela, Tropius, the starters, and legendaries of previous generations.
