EZ Flash 3-1 Saving

i am trying to get pokemon leaf green to work on vba, the problem is that once i have done with vba and saved it then transfered it across to my memory stick and i load the game up it says that the save has been deleted and i have to start again.is this a common problem or can it be fixedmatt

Is the game SRAM patched? I think pokemon needs it. I don't recall the name of the tool that does it... GBATA, I think?Another case is if the battery in the 3in1 has died. You can either attempt to replace it yourself (soldering needed, IIRC) or get a new one.

i will try the GBATAalso
i have only just bought it
