definetely dont use a pen or marker. just hold off. see if you still have the second stylus that comes with the DS. oh and dont use a Q-tip either, i tried once and it damaged my screen.

Hm I think I will just use my finger that can't be bad.
Ya, well uh, being a proffesional of the subject, i would have to say you should use a pair of scissors. I've been doing it for 37 years now and i think it's quite effective. Hope this helps. Igoing back to my laboritory todo extended researchon the subject though and i'll be sure to tell you what i find out.
Just go to any store that sells a replacement stylus and buy one. If you use anything else you will void your warrenty. Anything else could scratch the screen.
you know....telling him that he can get a another stylus by BUYING another one isn't really helping him. Try a bobby pin with the cushions still on. u gotta be careful though because if its not then they will scratch your screen.
You know you can pick one up from a few places rather easily, right?

I know but i'm broke right now I can't get one until I get paid.
Well then um, wait 'till you get paid. Or look around for some extra cash. They only cost like 10 bucks for like 3 stylus...lucky i had the original NDS lite stylus and the Pokemon Pearl limited edition stylus. :D

I use the end of a thin paintbrush.Works nicely.Don't leave it in the stylus slot though.If it snaps you'll be left with a stub that's almost impossible to pull out(like mine....)
do you have the thumb strap? thats my back-up. don't use scissors, they make the screen have pretty colors and die.;) also, if you use an aforementioned stand-in, make sure the nub youre using to touch the screen is smooth. plastic molding often has a slight edge to it, and you may need to sand the tip of oh, say a bobby pin. just a little word of advice.

wats a thumb strap ,please explain im dumb founded?
I can't believe all the punks telling you to use scissors or a marker with the cap off. Use the thumb strap because it was made to be used on the screen or just use your finger.
Having lost both of my styluses at the same time (lucky for me I found them both again), I will warn you, DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF PEN! I used one once, andI was really annoyed when it made a mark. Although after that I used my little finger, I would reccommend a cotton bud.
Rush to the store, to get a spare. That should do the job. And mostly you can only get two or three, which is a good thing, because if one is lost again, you at least got the other one or two.

wats a thumb strap ,please explain im dumb founded? It´s a thing which you can attach to your thumb and use it instead of your stylus. It´s mostly used nowadays, if you don´t want to hold a stylus or if you want to use both thumb straps at the same time, since that´s not possible with two styluses.
i suggest getting quite a few replacement ones, i constantly lose mine, and if you have the old DS the strap that comes with it has a special finger stylus.
Mm.. Well.. I assume you purchased your copy of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass right? If so, you can register the game on the Nintendo website. I believe the promotion is still going on. If you register your game, you'll get a free quill stylus.
I know it's far too late for people to be reading this, but if someone does a Google search looking for an answer, I've found the eraser end of a pencil works just fine. Keep a peice of tissue paper handy to clean it off every once in a while and I can't see any problems.

What step in evolution, the monkey found the key board!!! Hold off for no, if you have a screen protector you could use some objects that are blunt small points. Other styulus like off a PDA or something could work, but your best bet is waiting, play your GBA games while you wait!
