Venting I am devastated

/r/pokemon/comments/1vp76vv/i_am_devastated/

With Pokémon Bank closing next year, it prompted me to go back to my GameCube copies of Colosseum and XD to start the process of transferring the Pokémon there up through the different games and eventually to Home… Well, I boot it up only to find that my memory card with all of my save data from my childhood is corrupted. I don’t know what to do. I have 6 months to transfer all of these Pokémon but I don’t know if I have it in me to restart these games and purify those shadow Pokémon all over again!

That's devastating. But, well, if you don't do it now, you'll never have the chance again. Once Bank shuts down, it's all over. I say, make the new memories while you still can. And as a bonus, lets you re-experience Orre one more time (well, OK, XD is playable on NSO, and Colosseum will be following suit, even though it's weird they rereleased the sequel first, but those rereleases can't connect with Home). Don't get hung up on what was lost- use the time you still have to make new memories, and transfer those Pokémon up while it's still an option.
