Somebody please help! HeartGold Freezing Issue!
Ok.. I am going to try typing coherently, because I am in a sheer state of panic right now.
Some quick things to note first:
1. My game was bought new from a reputable electronics store (Future Shop).
2. I have never once used Action Replay on this game, in fact, I have never used Action Replay.
3. The DS (original model) was bought new, and has never been tampered with.
My HeartGold, which has never before acted up, has begun behaving strangely. It all started when I came in from the Safari Zone. I had just caught two Shinx, a Manectric, a Girafarig, an Abra, and a Slowbro. When I got back in, I received a call on my Pokegear from Ace Trainer Reena, and I was unable to answer it. I just passed it off as a minor glitch, and proceeded to the PC to check out the natures of my new Pokemon. I had saved the game at this point. But when I tried to access the PC, the game froze. I then reset the game, and tried again. Same thing happened. So I took out the cartridge, blew on it and the slot, and tried again. I tried a third time, still froze. I am now afraid to touch the game, in fear of losing my Typhlosion. I could stomach the possibility of having to reset and losing the Pokemon in my Boxes, but I can't lose this one Pokemon. This is the game that brought me back to Pokemon, and losing my Typhlosion would be an absolute nightmare.
I just can't even imagine it.. If there is anyone who has had a similar experience, or knows what I could do, please let me know!!!
