I think this can also occur when a lot of dust gets on the exposed contacts of the game.
|
lol that samething happened to my crystal.
Just do this get a screwdrive the super small ones froma hardware storwe unscrew the back. now you see that circle battery thing either go to radio shack and show it to them thy'll give you one like that and a then get tape adn pu the battery and wrap the battery around the cartridge. It cost about $10 if you buy the battery from radioshack |
yh its brobally is in game batter as the game is growing old and unfortunatly these things happen but if not it might be that it might be inside you know you get dust in it and you think oh ill blow it out you might not relise it but saliva gets in with it to and if it lands were it reads the game kaboom it will go crazy.
|
My game use to, but now I changed the batterie in my game, so it doesn't delete itself anymore. :)
|
Its your battary it died Try here mine got bumped out in the wroung place so now when you battle people its a ho-oh and when you talk to signs you get gym badges
|
No, so far (amazingly), none of mine have except Blue.
|
Oh man that sucks...a lot. It's happened to me on Red and thats the only one so far.
|
When I heard this, I ripped open my Gold Version's Covering and extracted my Save File from it.
I put more than 1400 hours into that game, I was not going to let it go to ruins. *pets Zip Drive* |
Thats happened to me on Gold and on Emerald. :\
I just threw them in the bin. I should have kept them though :( |

1.) Would they actually do that for you? ... (probably for a price. >_<) 2.) And how hard is it to replace the battery yourself? Is it really easy to mess up the internal green board and pointy metal things inside? I want to replace the battery (Johto was my favorite region...) but I'm scared of messing it up. I suppose I could always get a cheapie replacement at gamestop, but still. |
My Blue, Yellow, Silver AND Crystal all delete themselves ALL the time. :(
|
Ugh...first, my Gold version deleted itself, and that really ticked me off. Then my Silver version did it not long afterwards. My Yellow version hasn't deleted itself yet, and neither has my Crystal version. But it makes me worried that my Crystal version will eventually delete itself; that's my fav out of the really old-school Pokemon games (I actually just started a new game the other day on it xD)

a few friends of mine (started with me) have begun to replay these games, all figuring the issue was the battery, I'll be glad to let them all know tomorrow that it was actually just the battery, and only has to be replaced.
Thanks everyone ^^ |
wow im soo glad i looked here!!
my G and S wont save any more so i bought a new s and that one didnt save either i thought maby it was something to do with my gameboy or morelikely all the cheets i used to do so if i was to send my games off to nintendo should i just send it off to them? i think maby i should contact them first ;) edit ok i went to thier site nd found this page the most important thing i saw on there is this bit All Other Game Boy Games Due to the age of these games, repairs are unavailable. We recommend purchasing a replacement from a retailer or online auction site that carries older products. For more information on locating older products. |
Yeah, my Gold deleted itself last year... My other versions haven't erased themselves yet... *gulp*
Is it possible to change the battery without losing the data? If I didn't have my doubts, I would've changed them long ago. |

I actually replaced my battery this morning (my brother helped me... me + machines = bad) and it works just great! I was so excited. *Oh, and instead of using scotch tape to tape the battery to the contacts, I'd recommend electrical tape. My bro said it wouldn't hurt the circuit board as bad. I guess if you have to replace it in a couple years or something. ...woot! ^^ |
if i replace the battery will i lose the data?? and if it does is there any way to keep the data??

My game did that too - I remember playing my Gold version non-stop for years! Oh well - I'll have to take the time to get a new battery for it! =] It's well worth the money!
|
My Silver Deleted itsef and i got Mew in it. G/S/C was the best games ever, and it's anoying that Nintendo won't make a G/S/C remake like Leaf Green and Fire Red.
But it's good we got people like ZEL. |
I replaced the internal battery to my gold today, and now it saves and keeps it. I didn't really need a soldering iron. The cartridge applies force so the battery can keep in place. I am trying to get my crystal battery off, but it is stuck on there.:)
|
Argh! that happened to me too, my silver ran COMPLETELY dry.
As soon as I remove the cart, i loose my whole save. |
on my pokemon silver, whenever i saved i had to play it again within the hour or my save got deleted:\
|
My bros battery when dry i think he played like 322-350 Hours + And stopped He played again And it got deleted...He blamed me intil i finnaly got him too belive i didnt do it
