Pokemon Green English (hack of Pokemon Blue) save file destroyed

[savememan]

I was playing Pokemon Green English (a romhacked Pokemon Blue to match the original Pokemon Green)

Played it on Retroarch Android

Worked fine made it to Cerulean City

A few days later tried to play again and it said the save file was destroyed

I loaded my file into PKHex and it showed all my pokemon just fine

Not sure why it's saying it's corrupt?

Help appreciated it would be a pain in the ass to start over (and maybe have it corrupted again)

@savememan I'm not a mod here, but it is against the rules to upload ROMs on this forum. I suggest you remove the file from your post.

I opened your save file in PKHeX, exported it again, changed the extension to .sav for it to work on my emulator, and it loaded up as a Pokémon Red save. I saved it again in-game, and it works. I don't know if it'll work with your Green hack, but you can at least salvage the playthrough itself.

It worked! Loads in Pokemon "Green" (Blue) just fine. Thanks a lot, looks like the fix was pretty simple

not sure how it got corrupted in the first place though

could be you were using some kind of glitch or something?

or maybe the romhack is imperfect...

Not glitching deliberately at all. Honestly have no clue how it happened. I don't think it happened due to closing the app while saving, wouldn't it have been unrecoverable then? Not sure
