As there is no storage for saves on the console or disc, [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] saves saved data onto a Nintendo GameCube Memory Card. Players are prevented from saving the game if a save file on the Memory Card was not loaded or created when starting the game. To prevent players from cloning Pokémon, the player can only save to the Memory Card which was inserted when entering the mode selection screen. Attempting to save to a different Memory Card than was first inserted will result in an error message appearing and the game rejecting to save the game. The functionality to copy or move the game save data for both games is disabled as well. In addition, Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness will register a save as corrupted if the previous saved game has greater play time than the one it is being overwritten with. Pokémon Colosseum requires 48 blocks to save the game, while Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness requires only 43 blocks to save.

Pokémon Colosseum requires the player to use the [[PC]] for saving, as opposed to the handheld [[core series]] games, which allow the player to save anywhere. The "save anywhere" feature was restored in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], and it is not possible to save using the PC, only using the menu opened by pressing Start.
