I want to use pokesav but i cant find mt pokemon black savefile, i have it in a folder called games but the only files with the rom name are:
Pokemon Black.dtc
Pokemon Black.nds
Pokemon Black_.rtf0
I can see my save file when i load the rom on my SCDS2, so where is it on my card?
 
For some reason, some big games have phantom .sav files...
I had this problem with SoulSilver & DQIX, but I didn't really mind since the save could still be magically loaded. It sucks if you want to move a save to another flash cart.

I couldn't find a solution. It's not due to microSD corruption, I think it's just some bug with the way the DSTWO makes big saves.

Thing is, he wants to use Pokesave on his Pokemon black. It was possible to use pokesave on SS too, so it should work on black too
 
I dont even have a dtc, i wanted to do it to, the only way i figured is to use the multisave feature, it makes a SAV file for the second save, so if you finished the game on the first save you arent getting anywhere with it. I did it and have no way to use it
 
yeah im having this exact same problem, only with etrian odyssey 3, .sav file is nowhere to be found

if the save corrupts I will be a sad panda
 
Um, the DTC is created if you used the real time save menu, it's not the save game.
And, that doesn't happen for me =O I can see all my save games clearly in the Games folder.

Nope. The dtc is data for the in-game DStwo menu. The DStwo still uses sav files.

Also, the rtf0 is the realtime save.

Actually, this is what you can do. Take a SS save from your save 1 file and then reload the SS in your save 2 file and save. Rename your Save 2 file to Save 1 and then you should have a working save file.
 
Aww man that really sucks, i really wanna use PokeSav and im scared that i cant make a back up of the save file in case of corruption
 
Weird. All my save files show up just fine. Maybe it got a different filename somehow? Look for all things with a .SAV extention, if you find one that hasn't got a name of one of your games, it's most likely Pokémon's save file.
 
Thank funk for this topic. I thunk I was going cuckoo when I couldn't find my Pokemon White .sav on my DSTWO!

It's only Pokemon White I'm having trouble with so far, not tried EOIII yet, so I'm not too fussed really as the .sav file is magically loaded anyway, (even if I change the ROM name!) so I can play if I want.

I'm just confused as to why this happens!

What exactly do you mean? Is there anyway for me to get my original save to appear so I can pokesav? I really want my dragonite and weavile from HG
 
Fixed it, set it to load save file 2 and it created a new save file called pokemon black.2.sav then i loaded my rts data from the ghost save file.. there you go
