Yes, and Emerald! After you beat the Elite Four, you can use the Pal Park to transfer 6 Pokémon (per cartridge per day) to D/P/Pt. So if you own 2 of the 3rd gen games, you can transfer 12 a day. Or more if you start a new file on the games if you want to get the starters into the 4th gen game faster.
