In [[Generation IV]], the two-step saving process and prompts from [[Generation III]] remain, as does the {{wp|backup}} saved game data feature. In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{game|Platinum}}, the usual <code>Saving...</code> prompt will read <code>Saving a lot of data...</code> if the {{player}} has used the [[Pokémon Storage System]] at all during their session; this includes capturing a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and sending it automatically to a PC box | In [[Generation IV]], the two-step saving process and prompts from [[Generation III]] remain, as does the {{wp|backup}} saved game data feature.

When this happens, the process will take significantly longer. While no longer the case in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the message may still appear in certain occasions. | ||
In this [[generation]], the player is prevented from saving the game if there is already saved game data present. If the player selects <code>NEW GAME</code> from the title screen while saved game data remains, the player is cautioned: <code>WARNING! There is already another saved game file. If you start an adventure now, you will not be able to save it.</code>{{sup/4|DPPt}} or <code>WARNING! There's already another saved game file.

It is impossible to save. Please refer to the Instruction Booklet for details.</code> The instructions for how to delete saved game data are <code>Press Up + SELECT + B Button on the title screen if you want to erase the current saved game file.</code> and appear both on the first warning message and when the player forces a saving process with saved game data currently stored in {{wp|Random-access memory|RAM}}; however, they are absent from the first warning message in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, probably due to space constraints as the {{wp|Graphical user interface|GUI}} is presented on the touch screen, option buttons included. | In this [[generation]], the player is prevented from saving the game if there is already saved game data present.
