This page lists the changes made in the newer releases of DBZ: Team Training. If you have an old version of the game and don't know if it's worth switching over to the newer version (save transfers are possible in some, but not all, instances), this page is for you!
For information on how to transfer your save from an old version to a newer version, please check these links:
- How to save normally and test your save at the beginning of the game
- Basic information and warnings about the saves, particularly for Android
- Switching versions while keeping your save (also check the Version 3 header link)
Important Notes
If you already have a save, you don't need to restart the game from the beginning. Just replace your current ROM file (.gba) by the new version. Delete the old ROM if you want.
You need to keep your save file of course (.sav or .sgm). sav = normal save, sgm = save state. Rename it so that the ROM and the save have the same name (like Dragon Ball Z-Team Training V5.sav). On Android, the ROM and the save are automatically placed in the same folder. On a PC, make sure to put them in the same folder (with the emulator too).
Version 8 – August 11, 2020
Patched ROM: Download (Mega)
Patch (IPS): Download (MediaFire)
You can choose to download the latter file and apply the patch (to v1.0 Fire Red) using Lunar IPS, or download the patched ROM itself.
Game Changes:
- Checksave script: to avoid the super annoying problem of the save that doesn't let you keep playing after the league, a script forces you to solve the problem right from the beginning. If you can't save, you can't play. So, make sure to adjust the options of the emulator as explained in the Poke Community, Fandom and FB page.
