I've tried OCR on the computer itself with an emmulator many times, it almost never reads anything back to me, and when it does it's mangled beyond recognition. Seeing AI works a little better, but is still pretty inefficient. In the end it's faster for me to just use a save editing program to check things like stats and my items. PKX Delta is a fantastic program for generations 1-3, and Pokesav, while a little clunky, works for gen 4. I haven't found anything accessible for later games. This is all a lot easier to do with an emmulator.

Really? I use it all the time. Have you made sure that the emulator is full screen? To make it even more accurate, you could make either the top or bottom screen full screen, depending on what you're trying to read.

Ok I'll try NVision, just to compare it with Seeing A I. Thank you for the tips, I didn't know you could check your inventory by checking the save files.
The thing is, when you play with an emulator, how do you manage to aim with the mouse when you have to select something on the touch screen? For exemple, at the beginning of platinum you have to click on the pokeball that is in the center of the screen, I have never managed to do it myself except by pure luck! And you have a moment like this in black and white, when you have to select costumes for your pokemons...

If you're talking about on the actual hardware, that is incorrect. You absolutely need to use the touchscreen. Believe me I've tried buttons in both those cases.
