pokemon diamond screws up GBA game

[arthur.com]

Why in why does Pokemon diamond erase my saved data on my old GBA games when I try to transfer?
It erases even if i turn on pokemon diomond.
S.O.S. !!!!!!!!!!!

You know, this is exactly the right place to ask this.

That's why he's asking it here.


Duh.

[voh]

It's because the Pokemon from Pokemon Diamond are jealous and have egos the size of fifteen regular Pokemon. Obviously, there's not enough room for both the Diamond Pokemon egos as well as whatever data was on the cartridge before.

Obviously.

It's because the DS always erases GBA memory, because since the arrival of the DS, the GBA's have been jealous. Pokemon fear their virtual lives because of the DS's powerful "BRAINWASH" attack that does 1000000 damage and causes confusion, poison, paralysis, and loss of data.

Or would it be Corruptdatamon? *is confused*

Try Game Faqs for all of your Pokemon problems. You should be able to find some help there. Good Luck.

Well, the guy who runs google doesn't like Pokemon so that might be why you're not getting anything.

Good luck though!

Get over it?

Liar! No one ever "searched the whole google". It's impossible! Don't you know that Google's database is stored in a planet 10 times the size of our universe? It would take infinity billion lifetimes to search the whole google!

Well...you can always thaw it out in the microwave. Just put it on HIGH power for about 30 seconds. The whole DS. You have to put the whole thing in there or else it will wil never un-frease.

At least you haven't lodged your game inside of a pokemon geek. I hear that sticking the game into a pokemon geek will definitely cause it to frease.

I would definitely recommend using AGS to write a Hex Editor for the DS so you can fix your game. I know for a fact if you open your game using AGSHexEdit while it's plugged into the DS you will find at memory location 0x3A28213A the beginning of the text "BAD_SECTOR_FINDER_START" and then at memory location 0x7363682E the text "BAD_SECTOR_FINDER_END". Just delete these two lines completely using AGSHexEdit and then restart your computer and DS (or else both will become frease). Then you can successfully use all games on DS and GBA without bad sector problem. Trust me I know how this works I verify it 109% three times today!
