For me, (who does not have that version), can you give us a picture, of some sort?

UPDATE 1: i'm uploading the video to youtube now.

That's one fucked up cartridge. I'm guessing far too many codes, is the cause. My late brother, had a problem, with his Crystal, when he didn't use cheats after he had to restart, and when he went to help Lance, stop the noise, there Electrode, were not there, even though he restarted and cleared his game more than once. When it was working they reappeared. So, I guess too many codes can fuck up a game.

Using Gameshark codes indiscriminately can indeed corrupt the save file. If that is the case, replacing the battery will fix the problem (and wipe any existing save, of course).

I never used xploderlite codes on that cart, but the previous owner might have (pokedex was complete).

We have to know one thing, was the game used, or new when you bought it?

Pre-owned games, half the time will get them who used codes. The Pokemon Red, my brother got had a MissingNo. on it.

I'm pretty sure he already tried that.

yeah a friend of a friend gave it to me and codes probably had been used on that, but never after I got the game.

Well, I know how you feel, as my beloved Gold game finally gave up the ghost as well.
