Pokémon HeartGold cheats: Full codes list & how to use them
Gotta cheat 'em all.
The Johto region in Pokémon HeartGold is up there with the very best lands to explore, maybe even rivalling Kanto itself. The only thing that can make it better is cheats.
First launched on the Nintendo DS in 2009 in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Pokémon Gold, the remake looked to incorporate all the elements of the original that fans loved while modernising the graphics and adding some fun new additions.
While the decision behind who to pick out of Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile is always a hard one, the more difficult question is what cheat to use first. Rare Candies. Shiny Pokémon. Unlimited Money. Walking through walls. So many options to choose from.
Well, don't fret. To make things easier, we've rounded up the full list of codes that can be utilised in Pokémon HeartGold, as well as how to put them into action using a third-party device.
