I haven't worked with flash in a while and don't have the free time right now, but if it isn't answered by the time that I do have some extra time I will check into some of my old flash projects to see if I can be of better help.

Your question feels like it is missing parts, please re-read your question and try to word it better.

The folder I created with the path of this:
@"C:\Users\Cardon\Documents\Pokemon\" + ID + " - " + pokemonName
What I was trying to save the image as was this:
@"C:\Users\Cardon\Documents\Pokemon\" + ID + " - " + pokemonName

I didn't realize that I didn't change the path and naming of the picture, which caused it to try and overwrite the folder, but it couldn't. Yes it now works. Now I just have to go through and finish coding data scraping.
Digging into MSDN it brought this up:
ExternalException

The image was saved with the wrong image format.

-or-

The image was saved to the same file it was created from.

I found this by searching the method I was using on MSDN and looked at what exceptions it could throw and the explanation of why it might get thrown. When I did my initial search to "fix" the exception it was by what the actual exception was called which did not really provide me with a "fix".

Thank you SO much, I went back and looked at your comment carefully rereading it several times, taking a look at the exception stack and my code then I noticed the problem. I was trying to save the image as if it was the folder I just created causing it to throw the exception. I have fixed this and have given your solution a 5. I am sorry, sometimes I can just be so blind.

I got rid of some code I commented from when I tried a way to get around the exception. But it is that very last line of code every time.

The reason that it is hard-coded is because it is a personal application that I am using for a one time scrape of data, it will not be sent to users as it is really only meant for me to use once to grab the data off of 649 pages.
I already know what line it is, as I said "when I try to save the image", it should be obvious that is is pictureBox.Image.Save, which is the last line in the method. I did go through debugging as I always do when I run into problems, but the error is something that is so general it doesn't give any real information as to the problem.
Anyways I have updated the question with the exceptions details.

Thanks for the tips, I implemented them and it works nicely, except I still hit the same problem.
When I the method for when my Back button is pressed the Form updates properly and it is in the same class file as the FormStateSwitch method.


        private void Back_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            FormStateSwitch(_previousState);
        }

This simply takes the form back one step in the process.

But when I try to use FormStateSwitch in another class file it doesn't update properly but no exceptions are thrown.


        private void GoToOptionsButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            var mainForm = new MainForm();
            mainForm.FormStateSwitch(MainForm.FormState.Options);
        }

No exceptions were made in it ran through the code completely, the form just never updated. I will edit this post with direct examples when i get back home.

Yeah, my previous UI used I think 3-4 forms and I just didn't like how I used that many for something as simple as the program is meant to do. I was just concerned that this might be something the is a bad practice or such.
