I'm hoping someone might be able to assist me in recovering this save file. This save file was running on an EZ-Flash Omega Definitive Edition flash cart, and everything has worked as expected until today. My Gamecube (Game Boy Player) froze in the middle of the berry blending minigame, and when I restarted the system, the flash cart booted into Safe Mode. I restarted again, and was able to boot it normally, and when I loaded up Pokémon Ruby again, I got this message: "The save file has been deleted..." And I am presented only with the New Game and Options selections on the menu. I pulled this save file off of the EZ-Flash, and it appears to have the exact same file size as the old save file I extracted off of my official Ruby cartridge (131 KB, 131,072 bytes), but it's listed as a "Unix Executable File" instead of a "Document" like my other save files. Is there any hope to restoring my save file? I expected to load the game right in front of the berry blender in Lilycove City. It's not the end of the world if I can't get this back, but I would really appreciate some help. The first file (.sav 2) is my deleted save that I am hoping can be restored, and the second one (.sav) is the "parent" save file that I started with a month ago. I'm just losing a month's worth of progress, but I was blending Nutpea Berry pokeblocks with 4-players and I'm losing about 140 Pokeblocks I made this way (and the Feebas I was feeding them to!)
