So…

…even though the battery light was a bright red, I saved the game and it crashed. Now the save is predictably in a broken format and can’t be read (at least without extra hardware).

I was rather enjoying my 10hr game, just before the SS Anne and grinding my 'karp to a Gyarados, with a recently evolved Sandslash.

I can see that there are save editors for use, but does anyone know if there are save builders - that put you in a particular location at a particular level with progression flags automatically set to your point in the story?

I can’t say I’m big in to Pokémon lore - my introduction to the series was with Go - so some of the intricacies are beyond me but I’ll faff with editors if I need to and import them into an Android emulator if it comes to that.

Thanks in advance!

    but the fact that both my GBs and my NES work okay is an entirely anecdotal but personally convincing argument.

    This conversation wouldn’t be happening if that was true.

      You’re basing that off incomplete evidence. It isn’t known if it was the GBC, the cartridge, the batteries, or software at fault.

          …literally nobody is talking about playing on a phone apart from you, though?

          Well done for winning an argument with yourself.

            What argument? I was providing free objectively accurate information so that you don’t have this problem in the future. You were the one making up some kind of argument as to why you don’t want to utilize the superior solution in favor of carrying around old plastic garbage.
