This glitch has caused headaches for many players, but there is a solution! In this blog post, we'll provide a step-by-step guide on how to fix the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet save glitch.

Step 1: Download the necessary software

Before you can fix the save glitch, you'll need to download a few pieces of software. You'll need the game ROM, an emulator, and a save file editor. We recommend using VisualBoy Advance as your emulator and PKHeX as your save file editor. You can find the game ROM and emulator by doing a quick online search. The save file editor can be downloaded from the PKHeX website. Once you've downloaded the software, follow the installation instructions.

Step 2: Backup your save file

Before you attempt any fixes, it's crucial to backup your original save file. This ensures that you can revert back to the original save file if something goes wrong during the editing process. To backup your save file, navigate to the folder where your emulator stores save files. Find the save file for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and make a copy of it in a safe location on your computer.

Step 3: Edit the save file

Now that you have the necessary software and have backed up your save file, it's time to fix the glitch. Open PKHeX and load your save file. Look for any corrupted data in your save file, such as nonexistent Pokemon or items. Delete any corrupted data and save the changes.

Step 4: Replace the original save file

Once you've edited your save file, it's time to replace the original save file with the edited one. Navigate to the folder where your emulator stores save files and replace the original save file with the edited one. Make sure that the new file has the same name as the original file. Then, open the game and make sure that it recognizes the new save file.

By following these steps, you can fix the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet save glitch and continue playing the game without any issues. Remember to always backup your save file before attempting any fixes, and follow the instructions carefully. With a little patience and effort, you can overcome this frustrating glitch and enjoy the game to its fullest.
