Got a question? We would love to hear a word from you. Let’s discuss Pokemon Yellow cheats.
All codes work, thank you!
I’m so much pleased to know about it mate. Thanks for coming here.
The Pikachu surf cheat works for al pokemon. I put a ditto in the first position and turned on the cheat and ditto learned surf.
Nice.
The masterball cheat works but is there one for unlimited master balls because one time use is not so usefull with there being legendary ppokemon they are all powerfull so id want to catch em all so if you cant find some please add it
i mean can find some please add them
Hi, I just used one of the Cheat Codes that lets you encounter a legendary, just for the pleasure of catching one. Is there any way to disable the cheat and get back to the normal encounters, now that I don’t need it anymore?
Go into your cheats and uncheck them. that should turn it off if you are on emulator.
or on a mobile
Could you add groudon and kyoger to pokemon red pls
he/her give`s cheats he/she dint make the game
these cheats are the best ways to get version exclusives. I hate having to trade pokemon. the only thing with using codes is that it may get a little laggy. on the other hand, it’s so much easier getting the harder pokemon from the game
I was 7 years old when this game came out and played it on a gameboy pocket. Never did i know i could hack till a decade later. And still never knew how yo until another decade later that i downloaded Myoldboy and now ita tons of fun playing gen 1 gen 2 games i played legit when i was young. And i always come to this same website to use cheats. Thanks my guy for always updating codes for us.
We’ll do our very best to provide cheats you guys need. Thanks for coming here GanjaRaider and I very much appreciate your message.
Wish I read these comments prior to using them. Didn’t realize that the first item in your bag will eventually be gone or turn into something different. Lost my bike and only way to get it back is to restart. Not the end of the world but still sucks.
Sorry for what just happened Ritch. Unfortunately undesirable situations can happen when using cheats, not only on this game but the other Pokemon GBC annd GBA games.
You can glitch the game by imputing the legendary cheat code and the master ball cheat code when you’re starting the game. Professor oak will catch the legendary and when you battle your rival it will be a wild pokemon battle with the legendary. Also, the sprite will be glitched and the bag will be also
thats true that exactly what happened i had to battle a Level 70 MEWTO
I wish there was a way to pass that part
if you use the legendary pokemon encounter cheat and fight a gym leader you can run away and automatically win
I’m not sure if this is true, anyone can confirm?
It is true as I’ve accidentally done it in red/blue
Yes also work with wild Pokemon modifier cheat
wow its the god of pokemon
if u use too many cheats then u the one where u can catch a trainers pokemon u can catch the trainer but u are stuck in a loop unless u run and the trainer is a rhydon
u can catch trainers but it puts u in an infinite battle loop unless u run
U want to share some thing to some people who want to use the cheat named have all badges but are scared that there bag don’t get ruined so I am sharing how to avoid the bag ruined thing in some easy steps and I have tested it two times and it didn’t ruined my bag
Steps-
Step1- Use the cheat and it will work and give you all 8 badges
Step2- Save your game (I know it sounds very risky but it worked for me)
Step3- Reset your game but don’t enter your save file wait at the title screen and Delete the cheat code and go back to the title screen
Step4- enter your game and check your bag and it will be not ruined (I am not guaranteed that your bag will be not ruined but it worked for me)
Step5- It’s Done!
These worked for me and One more time I am not sure it will not ruin your bag but I tested it two times and it worked so I think it should work .
Hi Jaanhvi, thanks for sharing your tips. Hopefully this will also work to our other readers.
Ohhh thats how you do it i just took the risk and it worked
do you have cheats codes for pokemon black palace 1mb hacks i want cheat code for all TM and HM
is there any cheat for
1) unlimited place for items
2) have all items in game
3) have all TMs and HMs
and thanks for your codes
Hey there, I don’t recommend using those cheats. It’ll just fill your bag with unused items and will make no room for new items. Trust me I’ve been there.
Hey ummm the Pokemon level modifier does that only work on enemie Pokemon? If not can u add one for that please
it does
just chose the code for the level next to it
please tell me i wanted to know
is there any cheat code for steelix
Steelix doesn’t exist in yellow so no cheat to get it
false unlimited candies it’s limited by what’s in your bag
Not true I used it and it “says” 40 but when you use one it stays at 40
it works for me
Any ideas if there is a instant catch? Been wanting to do that in the safari zone
You can use the codes to catch all the pokemon.
Been using cheats since I found them work out great. Always save game before walk thru walls may glitch.
is there a randomizer cheat for pokemon yellow
Just use Universal Pokemon Randomizer
Hey There PokemonCoders. I’ve been In Trouble making the trainer repel cheat. It doesn’t work though, how can I fix it? (Its on Perfectly Coded since I copy the cheat code.)
Make sure there isnt a space at the start of the code. When i copy paste it sometimes puts a space at the start or end of the code that glitches it
I’ve list the flute. Anyway of moving the snorlax without one.?
do these cheats work on a emulator on iphone? if yes, where do i type those codes in?
I’m not quite sure about that skapo. I’ve done so many testing of cheats on iPhone but unfortunately only a few of them work.
I’ve used one so far on my android
it will work if you download it from playstore by the creator called jean and you click on the 3 dots up top and click on cheats click add and put in the cheat code up top and call the cheat whatever at the bpttom
I used the rare candy cheat and lost all of my items, including the SS Anne ticket. Is there a way to get another ticket without starting a new game?
Sorry to hear about that Kris, unfortunately this usually happens when using cheats to it pays to be careful when enabling one. I’m not sure if this will work but give any of these codes a try 013F7BCF or this one 01001208. Let me know how it goes in your game.
Whenever you want to get items like master balls or rare candies etc, the top item of your bag converts into it.
For eg: If ur top item bicycle when u activate cheat for master ball ur bicycle will be lost and u will get master ball. So to avoid this before activating cheats deposit imp or all items and keep something useless like pokeball at top of item list
Guys, when you use the rare candy cheat or masterball, before activating the cheat, make sure in top of your storage list, is something easy to buy, ex antidote, potion… The rare candy or masterball will always replace the very top list items, so be cautious. Cheers!
Thanks for sharing this information Adrian. Very much appreciated.
I want item cheats especially TM cheats
How to recover candies
How do you combine cheat codes
You dont it ment use two at once you dont combine them
You have to just on the cheat codes you want to combine and back to the game and they will but make sure to save the game before combining the cheat or it can crash or glitch your game
255 bag space code:
01FF1CD3
Thank you so much by bag has been SO FULL!!
Be carefull using your cheat this might do is you can’t see the item names but if you use them the game crashes so this code is for bad only
How come when I use the code for wild pokemon the pokemon doesn’t learn any moves when leveling up
Hey there Mac, I’m not quite sure about this, but cheats can possibly create a problem like this. Perhaps your game version is different from the one that I’m are using.
The Pokemon should know the moves already.
Dratini code?
Do I put in the codes for the legendary pokemon but the game wont let me catch them any idea how to fix this thanks in advance
The Rare candies Cheat dont work 🙁
Gotta use the master code bro. Works for me on supergbc emulator
What I still don’t know
You gotta put in the master code
First of in the same code
After I’m finished, the trainers are level zero Pokemon and die instantly
Same for me too.
Same.
Trick to this for stealing pokemon. Leave the cheat off until you see 1 you like then capture and immediately turn back off
When I delete the cheats I have used,the trainers are level zero Pokemon????
In that case, saving game progress and restarting your emulator is more likely the best fix.
Under unlimited pp
Your missing ( unlimited pp number 4
Is it possible to breed in this game
Hey there Hannah, I believe it is possible.
Not in gen 1
Late answer, and you prolly already got one. Pokémon breeding wasn’t introduced until 2nd Gen, Gold/Silver/Crystal.
The hell? You new school fans really don’t know your base game. No, you cannot breed in the original 3, or do that stupid contest on looks. They are raw true games based on skill and battle. Not tamagotchi emulators.
Whenever I try to do a water type cheat code the pokemon comes out all glitchy
If the pokemon isn’t supposed to be there could appear glitchy, see a pokemon’s stats and go back and you’ll see the sprites fixed.
Huh?
Huh?
The pokemon mat appear glitched when you find it in the wild but once you’ve caught it, the back sprite will be fine
In the Wild Pokemon modifier cheat the code for Krabby only has one “D” in the code not two like it has written.
Thanks for the heads up pal, very much appreciated your help. I already fixed the code. We deal with a lot of cheats that’s why sometimes we miss reviewing some.
Lmao so I caught Lance the dragon master in the elite 4 idk how it was with a masterball and the steal pokemon glitch and if u do this DO NOT USE HIM OR PUT HON IN UR PARTY corrupted all my saves even in Dropbox and deleted them so I have to start a new game but I already beat the game and waited till I beat it to use cheats so I don’t really care it was kinda funny but don’t catch trainers
Lol, that’s funny but that’s an amazing discovery and thanks for sharing it Lance, a huge help to the community.
Como eu uso no Happy Chick?
You can’t catch any trainers. I caught like, the whole entire universe of trainers AND YOU CAN NOT USE THEM IF YOU DO, YOU’LL PROBABLY PRESS “FIGHT” AND THEN, YOU GUESSED IT your game crashed. AND DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED WITH ITEMS WHEN YOU SEND OUT THAT MESS OF A POKÈMON!
Hi, wonderful codes they all work.
Hi, thanks for dropping here and I’m glad to know the listed cheats for Pokemon Yellow worked out for you.
How do I get the masterball code to work
Activated the second rare candy cheat and master ball cheat if you activate the first rare candy cheat you don’t get infinite you get how many items you can hold meaning once you use a master ball or a rare candy it will take your items in place of one…. So if it comes up as master ball x 1 or rare candy x 1 you did it wrong if it comes up as master ball x 40 or rare candy x 40 you did it right and your items are safe
Add hm/tm
How do you input these “cheats”?
Hi thanks, you did a great job at the giving us codes
Hello Prem, thanks for dropping here and I’m glad the listed cheats worked out for you. We have more cheats for various Pokemon GBA games, including rom hack cheats that you may want to check.
Plz add a pokemart buy anything cheat
Oh no, I saw a glitch Squirtle!
Please add a choose a different starter and missing money cheat.
It really helps me in my Pokemon “cheat journey”
There’s no cheat for changing starter Pokemon. What do you mean missing money cheat? We have the codes for Infinite Money/Cash check it.
The masterball cheat only worked for 1 ball. Any advice
There will be ?10 like this
You have to buy items and it will replace your items that you bought with The master ball
yea try this one. check the shops.
Can you add a code for missingno and this really helps
How do you put the code into the Game Boy??? I need to know!!!
not on gameboy… only on emalutor of gameboy…
Instead of using the unlimited money code, have you tried using the unlimited rare candies code and sold them. It’s useful especially when you want to get money quicker.
Did you do the Pikachu surf without knowing it replaces your original 4 attacks?
Nope I didn’t.
You can put only one line code, not the four codes. First line of code replace the first attack, the second line, the second attack, etc…
thx it helped a lot
It’s always my pleasure to help you guys. 🙂
Where are my infinite rare candies? I put the code in correctly.
Same problem, the codes says the letters are lowercase but after I put them in they change to upper case, no rare candies ????????
Ye how do you input the codes on the gameboy colour? Is there a step by step to doing this. The codes are no use if no one knows how to use them or input them
Most players play this game on emulators such as My OldBoy and there you can enter the cheats.
what and where do the numbers go to?
If you are using an actual gameboy color these codes are useless. You need to install a GBC emulator (an application that simulates the console) on Windows, iOS, Android, and more. There you can enter the codes
