Damaged save data error messages: Difference between revisions

#''The save file is corrupted. The previous save file will be loaded.'' - This message appears in all handheld [[bp:Generation III|Generation III]] Pokémon games when the game attempts to load [[save file|save data]] which is invalid but the game has backup save data, and will attempt to load the previous save data instead. Backup save data was introduced in Pokémon games from the third generation and onwards, so that if for example the console's battery runs out while saving the player does not have to start a new game.

#''The save file has been erased due to corruption or damage. The game can be played.'' - This message will appear when the game has recently erased badly corrupted save data, as a method of informing the player that the continue option has been removed.
