There are a ton of Pokemon Crystal-based ROM hacks out there. That’s just the legacy or proof of how good Pokemon Crystal is. One of those hacks is Pokemon Polished Crystal.
This hack has been around for years and has been getting updates. It has a lot of features, like having more Pokemon beyond Gen 2.
They also added the physical and special split, as well as the Fairy type. Evolving Pokemon through trading can also be done in this hack.

Pokemon Polished Crystal Cheats
These are the only Pokemon Polished Crystal cheats that we could muster. There’s an unlimited money cheat that you can just use right away. The rest are all item modifier cheats.
Just change the AA to the specific item code that you want. That item will then be in your bag, occupying the first slot of the Meds section.
Changing the cheat will change the item as well, but make sure there is an item there.
NOTE: The cheats work for the latest version, which is 3.1.1. It may not work for older versions, so just a heads up.

In Closing
These are all the available working Pokemon Polished Crystal cheats for now. Once again, they were tested and found to be working for version 3.1.1.
There are a lot of added factors in 3.1.1 where you can adjust settings. Maybe that’s why these cheats work for this version, but feel free to test it on whatever version you have.
Who knows, they’ll work as well, and we’ll update this list in the future if we are able to gather more working cheats.



Hi, I just started getting into Crystal ROM hacks and I was wondering if anyone has a working code for wild encounters? Thank you for any feedback
Hi there, RogueKite. Welcome! Unfortunately, there’s no working Wild Pokemon encounter cheats for Pokemon Polished Crystal yet. Since it’s a heavily modified ROM hack, many of the standard Crystal cheats no longer work as expected.
Soo… i want thunderstone for eevee but it can’t work please fix code

I managed to find a cheat code that gives you Rare Candy on v3.2!
Heads up; it’ll convert the item on the 2nd slot on Rare Candies and won’t interact in any way with the quantity of it… I suggest you buy x99 Antidotes, place them in the bag’s 2nd position, activate the cheat to convert them and repeat!
Hey Avalon, this is amazing! Let’s gather some feedback from fellow Polished Crystal players to see if this Rare Candy cheat works for them.
– Has anyone here tried this cheat? Did it work for you? Your feedback would be really helpful to the community!
Yes, worked for me! The rare candies show up in the ‘Meds’ slot if you use that exact method (obviously, since antidotes are meds), but it didn’t corrupt the save or anything.
Hi Psyduck1964. Glad to hear that Pal. Enjoy your cheats.
It seems to work for me so far. And the item ID codes that you listed work with it.
Amazing! Thanks for verifying the cheat. Have fun with it, but make sure you do not overuse them.
my bad, the rare candy one gives 48 of whatever is in the 1st slot of the medicine bag I typed too fast
I have some other news. The two community-shared cheat codes only affect the quantity of the first item in their respective bags. The Max Repel code increases the amount of whatever item is in the first slot of the Item Bag to 95, while the Rare Candy code changes the first-slot item amount to 48.
Playing 3.2.2 and it works perfectly! Will have to keep this in mind
Hi Ashley, that’s music to our ears. Enjoy!
By any chance, do you have other cheats for version 3.2? The others don’t work. I’m especially looking for the Master Ball cheat.
I would also be very interested in a working Master Ball code. The one listed above just puts corrupted Park Balls in your ball space in the bag and you can’t seem to remove them because the game crashes when you do. Thanks in advance!
Put the code of whatever medicine item you want in the slot where it says XX after taking XX out. this code does not affect the amount of the item only what item you have. so if you want 99 pewter crunch buy 99 antidotes then turn on the code. It only affects items in the second medicine bag slot though. It doesn’t cause any issues unless you try to use it for items that don’t belong in the medicine bag. Also the max repel code on here gives 95 of whatever is in slot 1 of the items bag.

When I do the cheat turns my one potion into 43 of them but still gives me the rare candy. Is that supposed to happen?
