Cannot save ingame in Pokemon Diamond

I've started playing Pokemon Diamond on the DeSmuME Emulator for Nintendo DS(desmume-0.9.11-win32<-This is the version I'm Using). For some reason, when I try to save ingame I cannot save and it shows me what you can see in the image. I tried saving through the emulator itself as a save state and it worked every time but for some reason, I cannot save ingame. My friend also started playing this game same time as me, and he has no problem saving ingame(We use the same emulator and the same Pokemon Diamond ROM).

So I've tried many things, and finally it worked. I haven't suspected the ROM since it worked for my friend, but today I've tried using another ROM for Pokemon Diamond and I could finally save ingame. I can't explain how or why that was the issue(because I don't know myself).
