I found my old emerald cart! It gives a weird "battery is

>>33027933
it's probably the internal battery running dry. it just means that clocked based events will not occur, such as shoal cave changing tides, mirage island changing its id, berries, etc.

>>33027946
Will this affect my ability to catch the three legendaries?

Most gen 3 carts do that now
You're good, the games play perfectly, the only difference is that clock events wont work anymore but RSE didnt have too many

>>33027933
All GBA and (3)DS games use flash memory, so the savefile doesn't get nuked when the battery runs dry. It's pretty much what >>33027946 and >>33027952 says.

>>33027949
No, those arent timed related events so they'll work just fine

Thanks!
