Hey, hopefully this is the correct place to post my question, ive seen similar posts from months/years ago but havent found my answer :(

I have a physical copy of Pokemon X that has been completely corrupted, as ive found out today. I want to replay X and want all my data to be gone!

When i tried to open it, a black screen appeared with "Error type: generic, ID: 38, Process name: Kujira-1". Got some friends to try and help me and ended up using FBI and JKSM to try and wipe my save data off the game (clicked on Delete save/extra data etc). After doing this, i was able to actually enter the game and got the message "The saved game data is corrupted. refer to the electronic manual for details".

Then i tried resetting by pressing UP + X + B. This worked until selecting a game language (first screen that pops up), after that my screen turns black again and i get a similar message to the one i got before resetting.

Is there anything else i can try? to repeat i used FBI and JKSM already and already tried UP + X + B, but with no success.

Also for context if it matters, i highly suspect a hacked pokemon caused this. I used to trade and try and get legendary pokemon that werent obtainable in X/y/ORAS when i was a kid, got a suspicious shiny arceus. about a year ago when i was transferring pokemon onto my switch, i already couldnt access my PC ingame. It would crash when doing that, now i cant access my game at all anymore.

You could try to start a new game on PC with Citra, save in-game, then copy your new generated save file on 3DS and restore it on your actual cartridge with Checkpoint/JKSM

Can you try a hail marry and see if this fixes your cartridge?

    I setup a Bitcoin wallet yesterday, and good thing it wasnt with an exchange unlike those beginner crypto normies. The wallet is for my website, as I need to move it to a custom domain at some point.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, custom domain if neocities shuts down?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Custom domain will be linked to NeoCities. And just in case NeoCities shuts down, I'll move my site pages to the registrar.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, ok then why the custom domain? To make it easier to remember?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I'm also willing to host my downloads onto their CDN to make it far easier to access than MediaFire links lol.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, makes sense, considering the current url has your complex old username

    I also am gonna add a Monero address as well, its anonymous and no fees involved.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Bitcoin isn't recommended for sending less than $500 because there's an additional fee involved for every transaction.

    But hey, it exists(tm)

    @SylverReZ, you need money both for your daily life and for manufacturing modchips?

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I sell modchips sometimes, but quite rarely. And yes, I do need money that goes towards soldering equipment and hardware for projects alike.

    @Xdqwerty, I sleep a lot. So that probably considers me as either lazy or a night owl? :unsure:
