Let's Play GBA 475: Robopon 2 - Ring Version

So when I played this in Japanese, I somehow got stuck in a wall... This time goes a lot better! I manage to get my first Robopon! HOWEVER, then the menu glitches out, and I just want to look at my precious Robopon... but the game freezes. I think it's basically a Pokemon clone, but I can't for the life of me actually get out of the first village without the game glitching out.
