I started playing my silver version again and started a new file. Then, I played for an hour, saved, came back to it and the file was gone!!! Does anybody know how to fix my game from deleting my saved files?
IIRC, there's no way to recover. The thing that lets the game save broke, and the game can't be saved anymore. The same thing happened to me.
Crap! This sucks.
What happened was that the internal battery died. There was a guide to replacing it on the old Nsider, but since Nsider's gone... :(
The internal battery probably died. This is happening with a lot of old game cartridges, sadly :(
You have to have some basic soddering skills to put a new one in. There are guides on the Internet.
This may help ;)

this really doesn't help all that much. I guess I'm going to have to somehow get that screwdriver and replace the old battery.
Same thing happened to my Crystal version. :(

It happened to me too. No way to get rid of it, sorry. :(
hey, I was searching the serebii forums and I found another way to fix the save problem :D
1. Turn your GBC/GBA/GBA SP with the G/S/C in it on.
2. Start a new game. Set your prefrences.
3. Save at Elm's or early in the game.
4. If you have a GBA SP, (its much easier with one) turn the light off and put it to charge overnight or for a long time.
5. Your G/S/C cartdridge is barely alive, so the best situation would be to play your heart out and keep leaving it on for hours.
6. When you reach 100 play hours, your internal battery shall be fully recharged, and your game should work as normal.
