Pokemon LeafGreen Version Cheats and Tips [GBA]

Glitch - Saving Time in the Safari Zone

When you are in the Safari Zone, it counts the number of steps you take to determine the amount of time you have left. Well, if you want to catch a rare Pokémon, but don't want to run out of time, enter the grass, then lightly tap the directional pad. You will change the way you are facing, but it will not count as a step. You can have near-infinite time in the Safari Zone doing this. It is helpful when some Pokémon, such as Chansey, appear in only one section of the Zone.
 

 

Secret - Ditto Breeding

You don't need to find one pokemon of each gender in order to breed them. You simply have to put your pokemon of choice and a ditto into the daycare center. After a short while, the old man will tell you that they found an egg, and when it hatches, it will be whichever pokemon you matched up with Ditto
 

 

Secret - Determining Pokemon's feelings towards you.

When you use an item on one of your Pokemon outside of a battle, such as a Potion, the Pokemon will either move closer or away from you in the short intermission sequence. How far the Pokemon moves depends on how much it likes you. If it does not move at all, it feels neutral.
 

 

Secret - Free Coins

In the Gamecorner in Celadon City, go talk to the man at the far right Slots. He will give you 20 free coins. Talk to the man on the slots beside him. He will give you 20 free coins, also. Go to the left side of the Gamecorner. Talk to the guy that looks like a fisherman, and he will give you 10 free coins.
 

 

Secret - Free Nest Balls

There's a woman that lives along the Water Path that's looking for a Heracross. If you catch one and bring it to her, she'll measure it and give you a Nest Ball as a reward. Each time you bring her a taller Heracross, she'll give you another Nest Ball.
 

 

Secret - Loose change in Game Corner

Apparently, the folks in the Game Corner don't hold on to their coins very well!
By using the Itemfinder or looking by yourself, you'll find that many spots in the Game Corner have some number of coins lying on them. If you find them all, you'll find 200+ coins!
 

 

Secret - Pokerus

This is a helpfull virus in the game. This virus can improve all of your stat points when you grow levels. If your pokemon has pokerus and it's in your party it will spread to your other pokemon. But these effects are temporary unless you put the infected pokemon in your PC. In order to get it, you need A LOT of luck. You need to find a wild pokemon with pokerus. You will know it has pokerus because it will be it's status condition. After you catch it, to make sure it really has pokerus go to any pokemon center and the nurse will say that it is infected with pokerus.
