This was on the old boards, but I figured it not only would do well with being talked about again on the new boards, but also there might be new people who would LOVE to know about it.
Don't know how to get that elusive moveset? Can't get a Shuckle because you don't have colosseum and the e-cards for Fire Red and LEaf Green will never come out? Want to get just one Shiny pokemon, but don't want to spend your granddaughter's wedding trying to find one? Want a Celebi so bad, but because you don't live in Japan you figure you won't ever get one? Well don't worry, because the Pokemon Maker comes to your rescue!
In order to use it, you WILL need a gameshark, Action replay, or whatever cheat device in order to use it. Now, the pokemon maker has a button just below the code box that allows you to choose what cheat device you want the codes for. Virtually ANY device can be used for ANY game! Yep! If all you have is the gameshark V 1.2 or whatever, and you have Fire Red, this will produce codes for that! The problem, however, is that in order for the pokemon to be "yours" you NEED to find out the secret trainer ID of your trainer, and in order to do that, you might need access to a newer version of your cheat device. I don't know the rules for the new board, but I assume we're not allowed to directly link to sites with codes, so in order to find the code yourself for your game of choice, you're gonna have to go to a GAME site with FAQS and that site will have your code for you. you know.... that GAME site with FAQS...
Anyway once you get your Secret Trainer ID, you can use the Pokemon maker to make any pokemon you want from scratch. you can govern any and all attributes from what pokemon it is, what level you found it, what level it is, what it's IVs are (although the maker calls them DVs) Even what EVs it has and in what stat! You can even choose what ribbons or contest attributes you want it to have! Keep in mind though, when giving EVs, you can ONLY give a maximum of 510. You CAN give it 255 Evs in every stat, HOWEVER, if you choose to play Colosseum, the game will not allow you to use that pokemon. you CANNOT give more than 510 EVs to any pokemon. If you do not have Colosseum, and never plan to play it, or it's potential sequel, then give 255 EVs to every stat, because the gameboy game itself doesn't check for that, and link battles don't prevent that pokemon from being used either. (at least between Ruby and Saphire, I can't speak for Fire Red or Leaf Green or the upcoming Emerald) I do have colosseum, so I never give more than 510 ever.
There's also an interesting side note:
you MUST create a whole pokemon from scratch, you cannot just put down the moves you want and input the code because the pokemon maker doesn't add the information you are putting down in the slot you assigned, it's creating one right from scratch, you have to provide ALL the information. Including the Trainer Id, Secret Trainer Id and CORRECT spelling of your Trainer name. (caps and lower case exactly as shown)
But like I said, there's an interesting little side note, and that's that some of the information allows you to click a box and it gives you the code for that item separately. (Like Pokemon name, Trainer ID, etc) Which means that this info can be entered separately. for example, if you got a pokemon in trade, but you don't like it's name? Well then go to the pokemon maker, input a pokemon name, then click on the Code box right beside it, (Make sure you assigned what slot in what box you want it to appear in too. this is VERY important) and in the code box at the top it will give you a line of code. Input that code and EVERY pokemon you put into the slot of the box you assigned will have their name changed to whatever you decided. Other codes that have a separate box will work in the same way. Just be sure you pay attention to what Slot and what Box you're putting this information in for, because you don't want to accidentally screw up an already existing pokemon.
On last thing, if you do screw up, simply turn the game off without saving. No harm, no foul. As long as you don't save after a mistake has happened, nothing bad should happen to your game at all. (But remember, you ARE cheating, so use them at your own risk!) Anyway, here's the site! hope you all enjoy! oh and one for thing, I would like a favour since I posted this:
Can you tell me which Version to use for Fire Red or Leaf Green? Each one for the States as a V1.0 or V1.1 in front of it, and I don't know which one to use, it's not exactly very helpful in telling me which version I should be using. Can Anyone help? Thanks!
Here's the Site! Enjoy!
