Talk:Generation I item codes

Used "Get Any Pokemon", save wiped.

I used "Get Any Pokemon" to obtain ▼ W G d, game crashed, my entire save got wiped, why did this happen? is my save recoverable? edit: it didn't show the "save file is corrupted" message either. it's just gone. edit again: please can anyone help? (last edit: i don't care if i don't get the whole save back, i'd be grateful with literally anything back) --Zippee100 (talk) 13:05, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Sorry to hear about your save :(. You may have accidentally used the wrong party (bootstrap) setup or wrong item setup, or maybe it worked once but a glitch Pokémon duplicated or altered an item in the bag. Sadly you can't really get it back anymore, but if you do the SRAM glitch without clearing the save with Up+Select+B, there is a chance (yet only depending on precise timing) your party might return, but nothing else. Sometimes corrupted save files don't say the corrupted message, no. I'd recommend trying custom firmware with JKSM personally, so you can backup save files; (though is not everyone's taste). Another culprit to losing your save file especially on 3DS is accidentally clicking on an unterminated name glitch item or going out of bounds. Evie (Torchickens) (talk) 22:35, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

I was pretty sure I used the correct bootstrap and item setup, are there any effects with ▼ W G d in 3DS that is not in other versions due to emulation accuracy? (edit: i actually got it to work twice, both times with glitch pokemon, just something to note.) --Zippee100 (talk) 20:19, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
