Fire red - save file has been deleted...

[BigMac]

I've been running Fire Red on a pocket analogue. Went through a sleep/wake cycle to find that my save has 'been deleted'. Downloaded PkHex to see if there was anyway to recover, but it will not open. Anyone know whether this is recoverable or not? Thanks

Blocks A-D are stuck with an old revision (18) while the rest of the save blocks are at 29-31

Other than that, we can do the same rebuilding/rearranging of blocks to create a new save file (attached).

Thanks a bunch. Stoked to be able to retrieve this data. I still get the message 'save file has been deleted' when trying to boot up the game. Is it possible to fix this, or should i copy all my pokemon over to a different save?

Oops, I forgot to fix the checksums. Just take the file I uploaded and open & export within PKHeX to have it fixed. (also attached a "fixed" one since I did it anyway)

Only blocks 2,3,4 are present in your save file; missing blocks 0 (trainer info), block 1 (party), and boxes (6+), there really isn't anything recoverable.

Recovers just fine by the recovery tool.

vou falar até em português, cara muito obrigado de coração. In fact, I had already resolved it, I downloaded Net 8 and tested it so it was there, beautiful as I left it. But thank you very much, you have a sweet place in my heart
