If you’re reading this after having searched for Pokémon Blue cheat codes, then don’t feel bad — we’ve all been there with a game or two at some point.
Besides, Pokémon Blue is well over 20 years old now, so breaking a few rules in the game is nothing.
You can guarantee you weren’t the first and certainly won’t be the last to enter some codes and get infinite Master Balls — because let's face it, trekking back to a Poké Mart after being caught short without one in the field is painful.
So, we have a collection of the best cheat codes and simple workarounds to make your adventure in Pokémon Blue a little easier.
With a game as old as Pokémon Blue, we can assure you there are plenty of glitches, cheats and workarounds that have been found in the game. Here are a few of the most famous ones to get you started.
Initially bizarre and a little terrifying, this glitch in the game occurs when a corrupted Bird-type Pokémon appears to the player in the wild, but instead of being a fully-formed picture, it is a blurred image of dodgy-looking tiles.
It refers to a missing number in the Pokémon’s code caused by a 10 character limit found in western versions of the Generation 1 games — being Red, Blue and Yellow — according to Bulbapedia.
To trigger the MissingNo glitch, simply head to Veridian City and speak with the Old Man, who will ask if you are in a hurry.
Tell him «no». He will then show you how to catch Pokémon, but once he is finished, you need to fly to Cinnabar Island.
Surf along the coastlines of the island and, eventually, MissingNo will appear. Encountering this anomaly will also cause the number of items in the sixth entry of your inventory to increase to exactly 128.
It is worth noting that this glitch could cause your save file to become corrupted.
