Sorry for the long answer, but I wanted to be thorough. Oh and ofc, if you still want portability, emulating on phone is also a very valid option, and have I played multiple GBA pokemon games like that before too And it's still quite fun, and feels similar to the original when using controllers(especially when you use nintendo brand controllers, the d-pad makes all the difference on WiiUPro/SwitchPro). That being said, it's not that easy to locate copies anymore, so emulation is the most easy.

Both emulation and DS lite are good, but I would much rather have a legitimate copy and play on the go than have to emulate. So which do I prefer? It comes down to finding the games honestly. But imo, at that point just emulate it, it would be less work. The GBA player is another option bc then you play it on the tv.

Rather, a DS lite would probably offer the most comfortable experience and is closest to the GBA experience you probably imagine. If you play it on an actual GBA, you'll probably find it very unfun in today's age, bc there's no backlight. Now, you can play it on an actual GBA(or subsequent models), GBA player on Gamecube, or DS Lite. Ok, so first, we have to assume you can find a legitimate copy, and that you can pay for it (and do not pay for more than $100 max, it's not worth the money.
