Pal Park problem: European->american immigrating?

[Saint of Swords]

Whenever I try to immigrate pkm from my European Firered game to my American Diamond game the dude at the counter says I haven't stocked up six pokémon to immigrate.
Yet I have a team of six pokémon ready to immigrate on firered... (no eggs)
I figured it should work cause it only fails when the games are a different language?
Well they're both english.

Have you hit "Migrate from FireRed" on the main menu, by chance? They're probably still in the GBA game. Once you've sent them into Diamond it should be no problem.

You haven't migrated them. European > American works perfectly fine, as my full Legendary box in Diamond will attest to.

Not exactly European, though, right? People are stating that it only works with English European games, so that would only apply for the games from UK/Ireland, Denmark and perhaps some few other countries where apparently don't even bother to translate the game to the local language. o.o

My european game is also English.
I can't seem to find this "migrate from..." option?

Main menu, scroll down. Before you even start playing, it's on the screen where you access your saved game.
