I bought Pokemon Ecarlate (FR) and Pokemon Scarlet(NA). I bought the French one for the steelbook and im gonna ebay the cartridge later(not the steelbook) So If i play Ecarlate and play it for a day(it comes early) and then put in my Scarlet copy will it make a new save data and count as a new game or will it count it as the same game and share save data?

gotcha

desert prism
#

Only from seeing the US and UK version, the languages on them are different, so there's a high chance they are entirely different copies

stray spire
#

what did sword and shield do?

desert prism
#

let me check

stray spire
#

ty

desert prism
#

Each is a different version:

#

Sword seems to have international version after all

#

But don't base it on one generation of the game

#

Since it can be changed

stray spire
#

so for sword it wouldve shared save data?

#

is what that means?

desert prism
#

yeah

#

I have only seen a partial ID for 2 versions of Scarlet/Violet so still not sure

#

and it's weird

stray spire
#

hm gotcha i sorta understand how it works now but not completely

#

anyway if it doesnt share id only lose a bit of time

#

not a huge deal

desert prism
#

Each region may have a different version of the game

#

and they are treated as entirely different games from each other

#

different save data

#

may is the key here

stray spire
#

and sword and shield have the same ID on all regional versions

desert prism
#

Yeah but right now

#

Ok let me take a pic

stray spire
#

i mean u dont need to go through all that its okay

#

i understand

desert prism
#

This is all the data we have now

#

kinda strange that they have different selection of languages

stray spire
#

makes it seem like it will be one version and same IDS?

desert prism
#

Very possible. I think they have a mix up in language data here.

stray spire
#

i mean what ive gathered is save data could be shared like sword and shield just not guaranteed

desert prism
#

It's (All), indicating international version

#

but again, too early to say

#

just higher chance it will be like that

#

The reason I'm not linking the info is because the games were leaked ahead of release date. So these info is technically "leaked" info.

stray spire
#

okay well if u had to bet on it youd say it share?

#

thats enough for me haha

#

i appreciate it all the help

#

really do

#

thanks 😄

desert prism
#

I can only say there's a high chance, but can't confirm for sure haha.
No problem, good luck.

#

Oh @stray spire one more thing

#

I read something wrong

#

The US version and UK version actually has the same language set

#

not different, they are the same

stray spire
#

ayyyee

desert prism
#

skim read too fast

stray spire
#

yea i bought the FR and US version so i can play US and have the FR steelbook pre order

#

then i expected to get the FR one weeks later

desert prism
#

So I guess the chance is even higher this game has international version, one single version for all regions

stray spire
#

they shipped it from france 2 days ago and its arriving tomorrow its insane

desert prism
#

Alright, let me know how it turned out

stray spire
#

game + shipping cost $55

#

just got lucky its coming early too haha

#

thanks a bunch for the help
