Gen 3 PkHex?

[Helmschrot]

Hello, so I'm currently playing pokemon ruby on an emulator ... now I wanted to pick up a Pokemon, but somehow it doesn't work. I play on "Retroarch" where the files are saved as ".smr". This was already in Pokemon Gold that I played. There I solved it so that I simply renamed the ".smr" file to a ".sav" file and then dragged it in. But now when I do that with Ruby the following error message comes up:

Attemted to load an unsupported file type / size. This could be caused by loading a different generation Pokemon file on an unsupported generation or youre file is courupt.
File loaded:
\ User \ [My name] \ Desktop \ Pokemon Ruby.sav
File size: 139264 bytes
139264 bytes (0x22000)

It may be important to mention that it is a randomized rom, which was the case with gold and still worked there

edit:

Yeah, that smiley sould ba an C_:

The save should be 128 kb for some reason yours is 136

so you're trying to load a save before you pick a starter?

That's the problem right there.
perhaps load the file onto a PC emulator (like VBA), then try to pick a starter.
Or transfer the save to a non randomized game and play there.

You need to grab a starter before trying to load the save on PKHeX.

Your save is too big. I had to trim it down.

@Delta Blast Burn already gave you an answer (and I didn't see it until now)

Gotta trim it down to an actual save size.

Ok thanks, is there a reason why it's to big?

I don't know, probably because your emulator uses a big save?

You haphazardly changed the extension from .smr to .sav.
I'm unsure if you load back a .sav sized file to the emulator, whether would it work

You may have to untrim the .sav after editing.

Better learn how to use Hex editor to trim and untrim

Ok, much thanks

You have to save ingame, don't use save states.
