Save states are the best solution when you come across something challenging and you haven't saved your game into the actaully game save. So save states helps us more than what a cheat has to offer. But in a way save states is kinda like a cheat.

I use it all the time however its not really the best thing to do since if u slip and only hit an f-key without pressing shift then u might lose everything. And in some games you might save it when your about to die or something and not be able to save yourself afterwards.

I constantly use save states because I usually play games that can't save everywhere.

it's the best espically in the battle frontier ( emerald) for all those battles where you don't know what pokemon your opponets gonna choose. Just save before you do the next battle and load back to set it up to your convience

Yes, I use it a lot in Pokemon Emerald. Just like vibo said, it's good to use the save state because it is completely random at what you get. Also I like it because sometimes I may need a break from it. But in any case, it is always good to use.

I tend to have 3-5 save states at the same time >.<Slot 1: Main save file.Slot 2: Temporary save (places where I wish I had a save slot, dont use it when I can save any time)Slot 3: Emergency save (for when I need to stop playing right away in the middle of something)Slot 4: Reset save (for tricky spots where I expect to have to re-try something over and over.Slot 5: Alternative save (if I have to make a big decision I'll give it its own file.)

Save states are my friends >.< I don't know what I'd do without them. I would the save spaces actually in the games, but for some reason I keep thinking they'll magically disappear or something...
