In the Japanese [[core series]] games, saving from the [[menu]] is presented as writing down the player's recent actions in a [[Pokémon Report]] (Japanese: ポケモンレポート) (however, it is referred to as saving when saving due to changing [[Pokémon Storage System|Boxes]] in the Generation I and II games).

Whenever backup memory is damaged or worn out, the game tries to correct the issue a few times by itself; if all attempts fail, it warns the player that it can still be played but that any progress will not be saved. The English versions mistakenly suggest that the internal battery may have run dry, but saved data does not actually rely on the battery at all. | |||

<blockquote>{{j|「バックアップきのうの こしょう または じゅみょうが きました。セーブすることは できませんが このまま ゲームを あそぶことはできます」}}<br>(''The backup function has failed or reached the end of its lifespan. Saving is not possible but the game can be played.'')</blockquote> | |||

In the 1.0 release of the English versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the text box for the messages of the backup function is displayed incorrectly due to a bug that was partially fixed by release 1.1 and possibly full fix by release 1.2.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9NUMK6N4F0 Various revision differences (Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire v1.0, v1.1) by ChickasaurusGL]</ref> | |||

Battle Videos and the player's uncollected StreetPass tags are saved to the SD Card (separately from the save file of downloaded copies of the core series games), even when playing using a game card, and are not deleted when the save file is. This data is shared between X and Y and between Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, but is separate for each pair of games. | |||
