I want to Speedrun Pokemon Conquest, but I have a save file with 80% of my Golden Warriors in Rank 2 and Perfect Partners + most legendary Pokemon. I'm worried if I play the new save data (which I know I don't have to delete my save data to do), I'm worried the game may force me to save at some point. Is there a way for me to speedrun this game without losing my save data?

I think the game only pressures you to save after the credits are over. I'll check into that. I think as long as I turn off the game during the credits. I'll check. Thanks anyway.

I’ve still got my save file from years ago despite doing multiple runs. But I also don’t usually leave it through the whole set of credits.

Ok. Thanks Wh0misDS. I'll just turn the game off halfway through the credits or so. I better start practicing.

If you start a new game with a save file already in place the game does not prompt you to save, even after credits. It's what I do in my runs to automatically skip the save prompts after each castle.

Would something like Two Heroes% be doable in new game without deleting the old file?

If not, it would still be doable to protect your progress by dumping it, which should be fine for all 0 people running the category.
