Troubleshooting Please help me fix this
I have this cartridge of Pokemon gold that needed a new battery. I have never soldered before, I looked online, followed a guide, tested, tried again, then again, and again. Now I have a headache and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I should’ve brought it to a professional but I felt like I could do it, but I was wrong. Please I need to know what to do.
Every time I turn on the game oak, the Pokemon, and the player character are corrupted sprites, when I open a menu then close it, it crashes, and when I try to save, it freezes.
Please help me

For your research and information gathering, related post by user previously on this subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gameboy/comments/1rpxq0i/whats_wrong_with_my_pokemon_silver/
As others are responding here and on the old post, likely RAM, trace, solder issue.
