If you don't know, B2W2 had a feature where you could use download play to link a second ds that had a completed copy of BW in it to "transfer" your save over for some cool bonuses. What steps would you need to take in order to do this using melonds?

You need a NDS firmware file in order to use the Download Play feature and not boot the game directly. So, select your firmware file in Config>Emu Settings>DS firmware and also unselect the "Boot game directly" in the General tab.

So, boot Black 2 (or White 2) in the first melonds instance and in the game's main menu select "Unova Link" and then the feature you want. For example, I chose the "Memory Link". Then select "Link via Wireless Communications" and "Yes". Then launch a second melonDS instance from System>Multiplayer>Launch new instance and boot Black or White.

Then, in the DS menu, instead of selecting the game, select DS Download Play.

If you have done everything correctly a download will appear.
