300 hour limit?

[abbyratso]

I was playing Gold version, and after a few months of lazy gaming I got about 287 hours, i was like amazed, so I tryed to get my last pokemon in my group lvl 99 but after a few hours my battery was working fine and then just poof, screen goes black, and then i try to play again and i have to start over, and im a little worried this might happen on my ruby version, someone please answer

[Jorah]

I've played for over 300 hours on my Silver game...there's a combination of keys you can press to delete the game (I don't know what they are) maybe you pressed them by accident?

[abbyratso]

its just that it happened right around when 300 hours shoudve happen, so lets just hope i dont make the same mistake again

[PikaChooseMe]

That's weird. I dont think there's any limit.

I've always thought that they put that effect in R/S/E and FR/LG

Oh please tell me your joking i dont want my ruby pokemon to be enialated!

[Katakoe]

Well with the Japanese version of R/S after a year, the internal clocks break or something, it just means you can't grow berries, lottery, etc etc. But I think they fixed it in the U.S versions.

But as for you're games, it's know to happen, it happened to a mates of mine Silver version, I can't remember how many hours it was, but it restarted his game and wouldn't let him save. --;

In saying all of that in Emerald I have done over 260 hours and raising and trading Pokemon to try and make my ultimate team. Gee I hope that my game will be able to over 3 hours:'( .

G/S/C has an internal battery just like R/S/E. It is used for keeping track of time for events like Berries, Day/Night, and Pokemon appearances. It is possible for this battery to die. Unlike R/S/E, however, when this battery dies, you will be unable to save. There is a way to repair it, but unfortunately I don't know how.

you need a saudering iron, very keen eyesight, and a steady hand
the 3rd gen games can go till 999:99 and you can still save
but my silvers battery is dead

[Haruki Hanai]

To my knowledge, the chances of the game erasing for Ruby are minimal as the data is stored in Flash memory. It's been that way since Crystal, I believe. The real time clock is still part of the battery though.

[Tycus]

no way my hours for ruby are 419 hours it cant be

[Eirikr]

350+ on gold, nothing happened, I assume your internal Battery died.

This happened to my Blue version when I had about 250+ hours on it. Wow, was I mad..I had all 151 Pokemon, and I was training to get my ultimate team..and boom. One day it shut off and my file was gone. =/

[Keruri]

ooh. That wouldv'e killed me.... thankfully I have short patience, so I often restart my games. But I restarted my crystal today, and I dont intend to restart this one for a very long time. so I really hope that doesnt happen to me ^^;;

[♥Naomi♥]

on my crystal version i am way past 300 hours,nothing happened at allsept i find way to many shiney tangela XD but i dont think that has to do with the game

[Keruri]

wow. I have never seen a shiny tangela, or shiny anything for that matter. :(. Oh btw my cousin has been playing his crystal for 600+ hours, soo.....
