Hey hey, did some reading around the forum and there have been similar issues to this, but nothing exactly like the situation I have from what I could find so I figured I'd make a post. I'm playing Pokemon Heartgold and started a new run, am pretty far in but just realized I never deleted my old in game save, so I physically cannot save in game anymore without restarting everything. I'm trying to just use my emulator (DesmuMe)'s save state to load into PKHex instead of my Battery save, but am getting that its too large. Wanting to know if there's anything I can do, thank you!

Save states are RAM snapshots, and are not save files where the game saves the progress to a file for resuming from the start screen.

You can use PokeGen to load the save state and extract the pkm (pk4) files for transferring to another save file.

I'm not sure if it's possible to use a cheat code to toggle a flag in the RAM to allow you to save; don't think it's ever been investigated in the past 16 years since the game came out. Considering you didn't have too much progress (only up to like level 10) you might as well just start anew.
