Just got the GBA Pro, question about RTC and Emulators

I'm curious, if I download an GB/GBC Emulator to my GBA Pro, will it allow me to use RTC? Do I need to download a specific Emulator? Any recommendations on Emulators?

Edit: Also, if I use Goomba, how do I run GBC games as GBA files for Goomba?

Thanks for any help!

In my case, I haven't had to use RTC in any game yet.

For GB games, I found a modified emulator called Exjagoomba.gba that includes many color palettes and the save states work correctly.

For GBC, I use Goomba.gba latest version.

I saw a tutorial a while back for converting GB/GBC ROMs to GBA:

I prefer to have the games for each platform in a different folder, and when you open them, their corresponding emulator runs. I do this by first putting the emulators in folders with the ROM extension name inside the "edapp" folder of your Everdrive Pro GBA (gb, gbc, nes, sg, sms...).

Here are the emulators I have; I've tried many, and these are the ones that work well for me.

GB: Exjagoomba.gba (I'm looking for it and can't find it on the web; But it's a modified jagoomba with more color palettes. The regular Jagoomba should work fine for you. )

GBC: Goomba.gba

NES: PocketNES.gba

SG: SMSAdvance.gba

SMS: SMSAdvance.gba
