monkey11 Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 So I just got to phenac city and I feel a bit too OP. The Pokemon I'm going up against are typically 5ish levels below me (like at ONBS). But I've only trained a little bit at Mt battle. Will the difficulty kick up soon? Btw I'm posting a lot. If I should stop lemme know.

I always feel a little over levelled as well but that's kind of my play style. I've seen a lot of playthroughs where people were really under levelled the whole way. I tried to make it so that it's worth training up a little but you can get by without it if you don't feel like it. That being said, there are a few level jumps later in the game so I reckon it will balance out again.
monkey11 Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Tried to do an in-game save and it told me the memory card save file was corrupted and that the save failed. Had been working fine up til recently. I just cleared Phenac City.

Had been working fine up til recently. I just cleared Phenac City. I've heard of that happening to someone else as well but not sure of the cause. Maybe an emulator glitch. You can use state saves instead? Maybe you can try deleting the save data from the memory card and then try saving again?
monkey11 Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Save states will work. Can try the other method. Also: Extrasensory was not very effective against robo Groudon. Is it something other than ground type? Giga drain was also normal, not super effective I guess that means it is ground and steel?
PinkOnion Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 I would really look into fixing it properly, as Save States won't let you proceed past the credits, I'm pretty sure. And yes, Robo Groudon is Ground/Steel with Insomnia.
PizzaHutGuy Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Yo stars is it good if I patch an older version of XG to the new one or do I need to get another clean rom?
StarsMmd Posted June 30, 2016 Author Posted June 30, 2016 Yo stars is it good if I patch an older version of XG to the new one or do I need to get another clean rom? Definitely go for a clean ROM each time. ?

Yeah I could use some help on that. The error was asked by someone before: -corrupt-save-file'>https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-pokemon--corrupt-save-file It doesn't seem that any solution was posted publicly. Any thoughts?

It says they wanted ti try copying the save to another memory card. There's actually an AR code i saw online somewhere that lets you copy the save file. Using that you could try and maybe that's the solution. Less likely but you could try deleting the old save data from the memory card, loading the save state and trying to save.
drizzletoed Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Less likely but you could try deleting the old save data from the memory card, loading the save state and trying to save. This is what fixed it for me when I had this issue a couple weeks ago.
StarsMmd Posted July 4, 2016 Author Posted July 4, 2016 This is what fixed it for me when I had this issue a couple weeks ago. Awesome! Good to know that there's an actual solution because I've heard of this problem happening a few times now.
drizzletoed Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Awesome! Good to know that there's an actual solution because I've heard of this problem happening a few times now. Also, in case it hasn't been identified, I'm pretty sure the cause is loading vanilla with an XG save file/state (can't recall which I used).
StarsMmd Posted July 5, 2016 Author Posted July 5, 2016 Also, in case it hasn't been identified, I'm pretty sure the cause is loading vanilla with an XG save file/state (can't recall which I used). That's really interesting. I'll see how easy it is to reproduce and the exact conditions. I wonder if it also happens when loading previous states after changing to an updated version of XG.
monkey11 Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 This is what fixed it for me when I had this issue a couple weeks ago. No dice, it tells me there is no Pokemon XG save file in the memory card, and then says save failed. I found the AR code that Stars mentioned. However, in order to use it you first have to save in game with the AR code enabled (and then that save can be copied). However, since I can't save at all, this won't work.

IIRC I went into the GC Memcard Manager in Dolphin and deleted my save file. Then I loaded up XG to the main start screen and started a new game, then saved, then loaded my save state and resaved. If you haven't already, try creating a new save file before loading the state.

I've tried that as well. When I load the state and try to save, it says the save file is corrupted (original error message). Did you just save when XG prompted you at the main menu, or did you also progress in the game until you can save for the first time?

PinkOnion Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Pretty much most of the TMs are available at the Realgam Tower, though some are only available for clearing areas of Mt. Battle and the Colosseums.
PinkOnion Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Noctowl is Dark/Flying and it's stat spread is made to mimic 5th Generation's Mandibuzz.
