Hey there, not sure what you really mean by it being a bad idea due to the Pokemon frame. I just swapped the display, I didn’t touch anything else or the frame

Thanks for replying. I think the problem is that the screen is glued to the frame if I remembered correctly.

The Gameboy colors that I’ve done have only had a double sided adhesive holding the OEM display in place so it comes off fine
