If this sort of thread already exists, I apologize, but I don't feel like browsing through the entire forum looking for it.
I just restarted my copy of Crystal, got to Violet City, saved, and shut the game off for a bit to figure out why YouTube apparently decided to skip three videos on the playlist I was watching. When I turned the game back on, the in-game clock was 15 minutes slow, which is approximately the amount of time between shutting it off and turning it back on. Is this a sign that my game's battery is dead? Or is this some other issue? I ask because my brother has figured out how to change the battery in GBC cartridges, but I don't want to waste money on a new battery only to find out that the error was from some other issue.
Edit Just to be exact, the clock still works, but only when I'm playing. Whenever I turn it off and go back to it, it's still at the exact time of day it was at when I saved and turned it off.
