and then a week later i come home from school and my little sis had saved over my file.
lost my complete pokedex, my bachelor pad on Jigglypuff Island, and most importantly, all my Florida friend's traded pokemon and secret bases.
I was pretty heartbroken after that, but i got over it since FRLG came out shortly after and it was a new start anyways.
Sorry for the long post, but Jigglypuff island gives me the feels.
