What is this?

It doesn't look like my LeafGreen.
And when you remove it from your DS with the power on, but not playing the GBA cartrigde, you lose your save file and cannot save any more.

my best guess is that its a fake version. they were a few leaked fake versions of ruby and sspphire, and the only was you could tell is when you entered a place with fog you wouldnt be able to see anything because of a hacking defect or something of the sort. Although i havent heard of any fake FR/LG, i wouldnt doubt that they are being made

But can you remove the cartridge when the DS is on, even if you do not play the LeafGreen, maybe when you play your DS-cartridge? And if you remove the game while its on, if it damage the game, is it the internal battery or something else that can stop working?

 

[W. Grimm]

i dunno never encountered one personally

Well, it would be good to know it you can remove the GBA cartridge while playing the DS card.

Hmm...it looks like someone slapped a Leafgreen sticker on their Emerald after making a copy of it. Where'd you get it?

 

[Te-em]

Some one had it. It was a LeafGreen, even if it looked like Emerald. But the LG sticker is supposed to be shiny, this one was not. An the owner of this game is angry at me because he lost his savefile and cannot save. But my fake Sapphrie did the same. He says it's because I removed the cartridge while the DS was on (not playing the GBA), but it's because fakes have bad internal batteries.

It does look fake indeed. The cartridge itself is meant to be far more opaque than that isn't it?

i can see a lot of people are telling you that its a fake but it could be that your DS has a problem.Did you get your DS used or new?Or look at your game cartridge while you are looking near a lamp make the cartridge tilt foward and you will find a number if you cant find the number its a fake.Also if you look inside the wide slot at the bottom of cartridge you can find a number and the Nintendo Symbol if you cant find it its fake.And if you find all these things on it its ok.If you are wondering how I know this i looked at my own LeafGreen cartridge.So I hope you appreciate my help because thats all i can tell you

Fake. I know a few fake GBA carts were floating around on eBay; did this mysterious "some one" get it online, perhaps?
