Unlike other games in the Pokémon series, Pokémon Yellow stands out as the first one based on the popular anime. However, just like the other games in the franchise, Pokémon Yellow can also be exploited with cheats.
Originally released for the Game Boy, this game was an improved version of the original Pokémon Red and Blue games. Recently, it was remade as Pokémon Let’s Go! Pikachu and Eevee for the Nintendo Switch.
Despite its age of almost 25 years, the original Game Boy version of Pokemon Yellow continues to be widely enjoyed by fans. As a result, the cheats for this game have also remained highly sought-after. Whether you’re looking to quickly complete your Pokédex, obtain an unlimited supply of rare candies, or finally acquire a Mew in the first generation, we’ve compiled a list of all the amazing cheats available in Pokémon Yellow.
How to cheat in Pokémon Yellow
If you happen to be playing the physical version of Pokémon Yellow, you will require a GameShark device in order to use cheats. These cheats are specifically designed for GameShark codes and won’t function without it. Once you have connected your GameShark, simply input the code corresponding to the cheat you want to activate from the list provided below.
If you decide to use an emulator, please be aware that there may be risks involved. Nonetheless, if you choose to proceed, you can easily input these cheat codes directly into the emulator’s cheat menu.
Using cheats in Pokemon Yellow can result in various problems, such as game crashes, which could potentially lead to the loss of unsaved progress. It is important to be cautious and avoid taking such risks.
