I learned today it was actually fake, since it has an SRAM battery and not a Flash battery. On my GB X cart it says it is unable to identify which type of cart it is so I can't rewrite the ROM.  And for some reason my GBA game seems to be corrupted.

The following cartridge configuration was detected:

ROM Title: POKEMON LEAF
Save Type: Unlicensed 512K SRAM (64 KiB)

Flash ID Check:
[   ROM   ] 7F 00 00 EA 24 FF AE 51 
[   AAA/AA] 10 00 1C 22 00 00 00 00

[  4AAA/AA] 10 00 1C 22 00 00 00 00 
[  7AAA/AA] 10 00 1C 22 00 00 00 00 

Common Flash Interface Data: No data provided

Cartridge Type: Unknown flash cartridge – Please submit the displayed information along with a picture of the cartridge’s circuit board. For ROM writing, you can give the option called “Generic Flash Cartridge (AAA/AA)” a try at your own risk.

Pokemon - Leaf Green Version (USA).gba

Hello Everyone, trying my luck here if anyone smarter than me is able to solve this issue.

I recently bought a GB operator from Epilogue to save and edit my GBA pokemon games.

And it worked fine with my firered and Sapphire cartridges as they were official. 

However, I thought my Leaf green cartridge was official and turns out it is classed as "Unrecognized" not exactly a bootleg. Image below.

I have edited my  Leaf Green cartridge on GB operator  and was able to use the upload feature and play with the edited save on my gameboy advance no problem!

However after using PKhex once more, my save file for LG was deleted on my cartridge and I am unable to upload ANY save on my cartridge... AT ALL anymore, everytime I do it freezes and resets the app. And it looks my 34hour save file is done for and can't be recovered on my GBA...

Anyone has a fix for this?

I've attached my pokemon leaf green save if anyone wants to consult it... I've tried contacting Epilogue and they said it might be because my cartridge is fake so there's not much they can do.

Best,

Jude

No, I don't have it. If you play someone else's save to that point, I can help import the event flags into your save.

Hello friend! I just speed ran through almost the entire game and I just got the 7th gym badge! In this (fixed) save Drayden is standing RIGHT THERE and is waiting for me walk up to him. Unlike my initial save from a few days ago, he disappeared and when I walk towards his house the game freezes. Is there any way you could help me import the event flags to my original corrupted save file? Because my progression, items, Pokémon completed trainer battles and etc are all there.

My 2 saves files are are the IDENTICAL spot in the main story, it's just that in my new save Draiden is here, and the old corrupted save ( that is pinned with the original post) Draiden is not

Thank you so much

Probably not the Kyurem, but you can try for the Reshiram.
Tho you could just uncheck Kyurem disappeared in PKHeX event flags.

I'll try it out! Thank you

Hi @theSLAYER do you by any chance have a save file right after the team plasma encounter in opleucoid city? Drayden is supposed to be outside confronting the plasma members but he is inside his house ready to teach my draco meteor. I think If im somehow able to skip team plasma in that short battle and beating 1 of the shadow triad before Cheren comes I think the save file should be fine. But I just can't because it freezes after beating the leader.

Thanks!

you are using a patched game right? maybe the patch messed with something. Or maybe it's an anti piracy measure, who knows.

Try this save, it should be post champion now:
test.SAV

I'm testing it out right now! All the areas are flyable so I'm beating the last gym right now, I'll let you know how it goes. I don't know if I can get the Reshiram or Kyurem though

Edit: nvm game freezes after I beat the 8th gym... I guess hope is lost unless I just want to roam the post game. But thank for the help though I appreciate it

did you use a cheat code or skipped badges or something.

well the best bet is probably to just set the save straight to battled E4. Do you want that?

I never used a cheat code to skip badges, I never had bugs in the game until I beat draiden and got the 7th gym badge

but if the only solution is to skip right through to the E4 I'll take it! I appreciate the help

hey, check my previous post, there's an edit you missed.

Hi friend! I just saw that you edited my save file with event blocks you had before, thank you very much!!!

It works fine up until I defeat zinzolin (the plasma elder guy) but then when the cutscene plays the game freezes because Draiden doesn't appear for some reason   

I don't know why, I haven't edited anything important in the game to make it corrupted like this in the first place...

You copy the block from base save, then paste write it into your copy of the save.

Paste write overwrites the data, hence when I got you to do Goto first, cause you want to overwrite the correct data.

Ok I managed to properly alter the save using HxD, and Draiden appeared! However when I walk to him, usually the game would force  a cutscene of him going towards his house and me following. However now there is no forced cutscene and he just stands there, when I talk to him he just says a few words then stays put. So I saved, made my [after] file and when I set my load old and load new it says "No event constant diff found" I literally have no idea what to do now. When I exported that its the same problem as I had before, nothing changed. When I would walk up to where Draiden would be at, game freezes... No clue how to fix this

HxD

I did everything correctly up until step 5 Played on [before], till right after the point hang/freeze

But for some reason it still freeze when I walk up to where Draiden is supposed to be... I'll try again though

On HxD when you "Search>Goto the same offset on your save, then Edit>Paste Write."  Do you have to replace the blocks? Or just paste write it on the 1FF00 mark? Because I did the latter.

Thanks

The save offset link should tell you (a) the block's beginning offset [think: address/location/position] and (b) and end offset of the block.
So copy that chunk of data (as per the beginning and end) from base save and paste write into your save.

 

using Hex editor, you can Edit > Select Block
to select that chunk.

 

You can then Search>Goto the same offset on your save, then Edit>Paste Write.

 

Lemme know if you have any issues.

Hi friend what do you use for Hex editor? Is it built in in PKHex or is a software you have to download on your pc? 

I'm sorry if these questions sound dumb I'm new to this

Thank you my friend, I tried following your steps, but on step 2, "pasting the blocks into a hex editor" what does this mean exactly? Do you have any tutorials that explain this? I'm quite confused I do not know how this works.

Thank you

Hello everyone, I just beat Draiden and got the 7th gym badge, and right before I had to talk to him next to the house besides the pokemon center (I think this triggers the team plasma encounter) I saved and closed the game, when I opened the game again Draiden was nowhere to be found. If I walk towards the house where Draiden would be standing at, my game freezes  I don't know what to do... Does anyone have any fixes? 

I am playing on a ds flashcart, but I also have TWilight Menu++ if that could help.

I put my file down below if anyone is willing to check Thank you
