I am not exactly sure where to post this, so I am posting it here.

I am currently running through Pokemon White 2 on MelonDS, but I am running into a black screen when Skyla says she will fly me to Lentimas Town along with Prof. Juniper and Bianca.

I think this might be caused by a save problem, because the time and date is all messed up and has question marks. Is there a fix for this as well? Currently, I have just been using save states to save instead of actually saving.

I do not know how to fix this issue, any input is appreciated.

interesting, we had several reports for Pokemon B/W like this, though we still don't know what caused it.

To rule some things out, do you use AP-patches? If you do, don't and check whether your save file is exactly 512kb big.

Hi! SO I am currently not using any AP-patches, but suprisingly enough the save file is exactly 512kb. Is there any way I could fix the issue?

did you use savestates before you encountered this issue?

Yeah, I haven't been able to save since I got the c-gear, because the time is all messed up and it won't let me save regularly.

but before that, did you use save states?

Yeah I used the save states pretty often just in case

to make this clear, you loaded save states many times, not just created them?

it shouldn't be bad, but I suspect that the error is related to savestates.

And unfortunately your save file is probably irreversable corrupted. Though before loosing all hope I would try to load it into pokehex and reexport it again. If that doesn't work you can try to recreate it in pokehex.

Will try pokehex real quick and give you an update


So I am kinda confused as to how I should use pokehex, and then use the new file.

I believe my save file is a .sav file that is 512 kb, but after loading it into pokehex, I am not sure what to do

i'm playing pokemon black and so the same problem with the black screen is happening with me as well. yesterday i was in nimbasa city and when i go to the right and N starts talking to me, he makes me follow him into this house and as soon as i enter, my screen becomes black and it still is.

i actually only have one save state file and i just kept overwriting that one save each time i wanted to get off and save it so im not sure if that is the problem or something else
i could still hear the music from the game perfectly fine but everything is just completely black, i've spent some hours on this so if anything can be done to fix this please lmk
