How to restore extracted save to Emerald bootleg cartridge

[nbdelboy]

Hi, I'm looking for a bit of help with the aforementioned.. I think I've done everything right. I've used the GBA back-up tool to grab the ROM from the cartridge and then extracted the save using the GBA bootleg save extractor. I've then gone into PKHeX and made the changes i wanted (event tickets) and have saved the file. I'm sure it's worked as when I reopen the save file in PKHeX the changes are there. How can I now put this back on the cart so I can play it? I'm guessing the save restore feature on GBA backup doesn't work as it's a repro cart (which I actually only found out during this process, derp). I've tried it anyway but as expected nothing seems to have changed when I play the cartridge. I can't seem to find anything about this, would anyone be able to give me a lil bit of help? Cheers!

 

P.S. when I tried to get the tickets, it asked me if I wanted to include one that wasn't on the list and something about it being japanese (I can't remember), I wasn't sure what to hit, so just went for okay. could this cause a problem?

TL;DR: There hasn’t been any tested and known way.

Also, to answer your question, and homebrew event injection that works off saves would likely not work, due to your save is being stored in the ROM sector.

The long version:
