Didn't see anything for Bizhawk when Googling around but the internal battery doesn't seem to work even when Real Time Clock settings are enabled everywhere I still get the dry battery error message in Pokemon games. All my settings say real time clock is enabled but it won't use that for some reason

I can't seem to reproduce this using pokeymans sapphire. Could you give me the hash of the rom you're using as well as a screenshot of the GBA settings dialog?

BizHawk version 1.8.4 10th 2014 How do I find out the hash of the ROM I'm using? It wasn't provided when I got it

With the rom loaded, look for a button at the lower left corner of the bizhawk window. It should bring up a Dump Status Report.

It's somewhat possible that a bad hash rom had its save\rtc semantics patched to work with a particular crappy emu; I know for a fact such patches did exist for some gba games.
