All Pokémon Yellow Cheats (using Gameshark Codes)

Card image cap

If you're like me, Pokémon Yellow hits you in a way that no other game does, and you've likely played it many, many times. But now, you want something a little different.

A way to play this game authentically, yet with some assistance in the form of cheats to give you that unique experience.

So, we've put together a list of GameShark codes that act as cheats for Pokémon Yellow and can be used on emulators, or if you're really retro, a GameShark cartridge/cheat pack itself.

Simply use your emulator, such as Delta on iOS, to enter the cheats via the "Cheats" section of the application, and these cheats will activate within the ROM file to offer the benefits of these codes.

Enemy Can’t Attack – and they’re burned!

  • 0170e8cf

Start with a Charizard

Maybe you don’t want to wait to do all of that pesky evolving Pokémon business – how about starting the game with a Charizard, instead of a low-level starter? Just enter this code:

  • 01B41ED1

Buy Master Balls For Free

Hey, those Poké Balls don’t come cheap, you know. So how about getting as many of the strongest types of balls you want – for absolutely free? Just use this code, and you’ll never pay for a Master Ball again:

  • 01017CCF

Infinite Coins for the Casino

The Game Corner in Celadon City is home to the slot machine game, which you’ll need coins to play.

Coins can also be exchanged for prizes, some of which are rare Pokémon that are difficult to get elsewhere.

So to get yourself infinite coins and play as much of the slot machine – or buy as many prizes – as you want, just use these codes

  • 0199a3d5
  • 0199a4d5

Catch Mew

Without a GameShark, the only way to unlock Mew in Pokémon Yellow would have been to attend a special event back in the 90s; obviously, that’s no longer feasible.

Surfing Pikachu!

⚠️
This will remove Pikachu’s learned attacks – if that’s not a problem, it’s time to get that surfboard into the ocean!

One of the coolest extra features that Pokémon Yellow has is a minigame in which Pikachu goes surfing.

Yet the method to unlock it is convoluted and becoming increasingly difficult to pull off as time goes by – it requires an N64 console, a copy of Pokémon Stadium, an N64 Transfer Pak and of course, a Pokémon Yellow cartridge (and a console to play that on too!).

However, if you have a GameShark, you don’t need to worry about any of that.

Simply ensure that Pikachu is in first place in your party, then enter the following code:

  • 013973d1

Catch MissingNo.
