Help with corrupted Gen 3 Saves.

[Scep]

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me retrieve the saves from my two corrupted Pokémon Emeralds, or tell me if they're definitely beyond salvaging.

Both of the saves are extracted from bootleg cartridges. I extracted them with an R4 using both the GBA Backup Tool method and the GM9 method. I have also used theSLAYER's tool for extracting saves from bootleg GBA games.

I've mostly met with failure however the GM9 dump for one of my cartridges saves has worked in PKHeX and from there to an emulator despite all other methods not working. This makes me wonder if there is anything salvageable from the cartridges.

Here are my Saves, D refers to the cartridge with the dark sticker and L for the cartridge with the light sticker. GM9L has been the only save that has worked in PKHeX. If it's possible to salvage anything from these saves so I could get them to run on an emulator/actual hardware I'd greatly appreciate it.

Light saves (I do have more but these are the ones that worked).
