AboutLG Expertise Hello, Dear Reader. My name is LG. I'm able to answer most of your questions about ALL POKEMON GAMES.
Since I became an Expert in this category (+- 5 years ago), I became fascinated by the internal structure of Pokémon and I started to check all game info and all game research data. As a Pokémon Trainer, I know a lot about all game walkthroughs, stats, attacks, strategies, breeding, evolution and much more.
If I don't know the answer, I'll look it up for you or I'll redirect you to one of my Fellow Experts. I hope to read you soon! :)
Experience About ten years ago I started playing Pocket Monsters with my first game, Pokémon Red. I became addicted to the game and bought its equivalent, Pokémon Blue and later on the special version, Pokémon Yellow. After that, I bought all the games of Pokémon that were released for the Game Boy platform by pre - ordering them in my local shop. I'm still checking the data of the Pokémon Research today, even data from the old First Generation.
Question Austin would like to know how to find and open a game after he
has saved it. He is not familliar with Pokemon Gold and although
he can save his game, he can't find it again to reopen. Could you
describe the saving and reopening process? thank you very
much.
Answer Hey Austin,
After getting more and more complaints about the saving - problem in Pokémon Silver (and compared to that Pokémon Gold), a questionner of mine has pulled an answer out of Nintendo. It goes as follow :
" There's something wrong with the game itself. It was brought out in 2000. And usually the first things to go are the saving and loading on the consoles. The only other option is to buy a replacement at a used game store. But because we no longer make that game, because it's so old, you can't find a new one. But at a used gaming shop, you may be able to find one in a little better condition. And it should load and save properly."
Bu there might be a solution for your problem (if the problem is caused by this kind of ' being to old '). I copied it from another Pokémon - expert on this site, Chanseypage. It goes as follows :
" If you wanna try yourself here you go (good luck :-D)
Things you need:
-Pokemon Silver
-New battery: CR2025 or DL2025
-really small needle nose pliers
-soldering iron/solder
-electrical tape
Ok here we go, I didn't know how to get images to work so just copy and paste the url's to your address bar.
Ok now that we have it apart lets take a look. There's the battery, notice how it has a yellow lining around the edge? Also take note on how the positive side is face down, we don't want to put the new battery in backwards. It's soldered to metal tabs on the top and bottom too. To get it out, I pulled on the tab firmly but gentle not to damage anything. It's a little difficult because you have to break the solder. You have to do this to the top and bottom.
I wrapped a small strip of electrical tape around the edge of the battery to imitate the yellow band. It prevents the battery from touching other parts in the cartridge.
Now this was my first time soldering anything, but I think it turned out alright, and hey...it works! Now remember, postive side face down against the board! Solder the tabs on both sides and voila!
Put the board back in the cartridge. Careful, it's a pretty tight fit if you have no soldering skills like me. Put the screw back in the back of the cartridge, and enjoy! I don't know how long it will last, hopefully a couple years like the original battery. So far mine still works but it's only been a couple of hours. Well enjoy! "
