Your data was erased because it was a fake cartridge. It has happened to plenty of people in the past. Did you buy it online? That is where most of the fake Emerald cartridges are found.

It's because the file is corrupted.Like when my stupid cousin ruined my game with his fricken` action replay.You may have to start over(like me) or it may be fixible.

That's another possibility.

Yeh.. I'm having a problem kinda like his. My cartridge is a lighter green than the regular emerald games. It says the battery ran dry. It there a way to fix this? Cuz it won't save.

But that only means time based events wont happen like growing berrys our pokerus dying out over time or berries won't grow.That probably dosn't have anything to do with the save feature.

Even if the person was reputable, there's still a chance it was a fake.

If you ansolutely can't fix it, go buy Emerald used in real life. They're pretty old games, so there should be some used ones still on sale. I don't use eBay for that reason, most of the games are fake or don't fit the description they give you.

Other than that, all I can say is good luck with fixing your game!
