Acceptable PvZ DS stylus

Is using a stylus that can reach the corners of the screen easily considered an unfair advantage or is it allowed for me to use the same non-DS stylus that I use when playing Art Academy on my DS? I just wanna ask this before I do a fullgame run and get it invalidated because I'm using the stylus for a Huion Inspiroy pen tablet, also is there a list of banned styluses because I don't want to unintentionally use a stylus that isn't allowed.

honestly, I'd imagine you'd be good as long as your Stylus doesn't end up providing an unfair advantage, most players of this game don't even run it on the DS anyways, I think you should be good unless there's something I'm missing

Cool. Also how in the world could a stylus provide an unfair advantage on a DS game?

basically, if it ends up somehow providing cheats for yeah, like being able to tap on the screen for you even when not touching the screen itself, that fall under an unfair advantage

Oh, I mean there's easier ways to cheat like calibrating the touchscreen in a weird way to minimize how much you need to move the stylus. I mean I could theoretically screw around on the calibration screen to see if there's any interesting effects that can be achieved, so far I found flipping where it sees touches.
