Why can't I migrate my Pokemon from sapphire to platinum??

Nov. 9, 2014

Whenever I try to migrate my Pokèmon to platinum, it ALWAYS “Error reading the game pak’s save file” I got sapphire from a friend who has used AR on it before, and my platinum is on a R4 card. If that is any help.Thanks in advance!

I’ve had this problem before .Make sure that the GBA games are real. There are ALOT of suspicious cartridges out there.You can check if its a fake by these things :

-No Nintendo Seal of Quality-A sort of “rough " texture to the cartridge sticker-The logo looks a little…..unreal

(It is quite hard to explain buthereis an awesome video)

Or it may be because your Platinum Version is on R4I had friend who’s Diamond version was on R4 and he couldn’t migrate it but on the real cartridge he could.

Thissounds a bit like your problem
