Say I lost mine. Or trashed it. Would my copy not work?
[If so that's fucking dumb. Or is there like a required one time of doing it, with which it confirms?]
I doubt it, and if there was, the next version of Pokesav would have a "Pokewalker Synced?" checkbox.
Thing is: there are 2 transmitters, one in the cartridge and one in the walker-thingy. Even if you ionize your walker, the transmitter in your cartridge is still there.
And maybe that's the true catch: there's some flagging somewhere for 'WalkerThingyIRTransmitter = 1?', where it gives you a '0' in a flashcart and all dies. But that wouldn't explain why Acecard is still working...
Well, it's a theory [and a quite smart flagpoint, if that's the thing]
