Hi! Long time lurker, decided to create an account.
EDIT: I've attached the files now
This is a (US) Emerald save that I've been playing on for some time, originally intended to complete a Living Dex for Hoenn with everything possible caught in basic PokeBalls
I backed the save up in 2020 and intended to post it here around then. The external HDD that it was on died shortly after (spoiler: I dropped it
) and I thought I'd lost it all.
Well, today I found another copy of it, stowed away in a random directory on another hard drive (redundancy FTW!).
I'm uploading it here for preservation, and to hopefully contribute to the community.
I acquired three of these after purchasing a JPN copy of Ruby somewhere between 2019 and 2020.
The trainer name on it was まーと (Maato (Mart?)). Inside the cartridge, were the following Pokemon, with no other Pokemon (transferred, I assume?):
I've also received the following in an IRL trade with another player:
Some things worth noting:
I've no idea how to check their authenticity, but they seem to be completely untouched as far as I know, except maybe the Negaiboshi Jirachi which is at Lv.100* (*not Lv.10; typo) at the moment, with met level being Lv.5.

The trainer name on it was まーと (Maato (Mart?)). Inside the cartridge, were the following Pokemon, with no other Pokemon (transferred, I assume?):
- Mitsurin (ミツリン) Celebi
- Doel Deoxys
- Aura Mew
I've also received the following in an IRL trade with another player:
- Negaiboshi (ネガイボシ) Jirachi
Some things worth noting:
- I've performed the Battle Tower duplication glitch on Emerald quite a lot, for cloning TMs, items and Pokemon. However, no GameShark or cheats used at all.
- I have traded it over to Emerald a few days after I received it, and it's been there since there. The intention here was to clone it using the duplication glitch and keep two copies of each, on both Emerald and Ruby.
- Additionally, I used a duplicate copy of the save to open it in PkHeX to check the validity of these three Pokemon but was unable to fully verify. If I recall correctly, it marked the Celebi as an illegal Pokemon. Not sure if this is because it wasn't in the database or if it actually is illegal or a fake.
- I think it's also worth noting that I used mGBA to open this up for verifying the integrity of the backed up save file.
- As for the hardware, I used a GBxCart RW 1.3 Pro, and the software I've used for extracting the save is an old version of FlashGBX.
- There is also a Ho-oh, Lugia, Jirachi and another Deoxys that I've received through trades IRL.
- I'm unsure about the origin of the Jirachi. Upon referencing Serebii, the OT seems to imply it's from a 2003 event in Japan. I do not know about its authenticity.
- However, Ho-oh, Lugia and Deoxys seem to be from in-game events such as Birth Island and Navel Rock.
- The save file on the Pokemon Ruby is still intact. I have not reset it, although I did finish the story on it and left it there.
I've no idea how to check their authenticity, but they seem to be completely untouched as far as I know, except maybe the Negaiboshi Jirachi which is at Lv.100* (*not Lv.10; typo) at the moment, with met level being Lv.5.
Files:
- Traded_Events.zip contains the four event Pokemons picked out separately with PkHeX, if anyone wants to take a look at them.
- Emerald_Save.zip contains the full save file. Lanette's PC is very messy, so be warned
