Introducing abilities, natures and 135 new ‘mons, Pokémon Ruby added a lot to the long-running Pokémon series – which of course meant that there were new ways to cheat.

Cheating has been a popular pastime for fans ever since the Pokémon craze began in the ’90s, and while all the usual classics are still there – infinite money, unlimited Master Balls, etc – dedicated trainers could now alter wild Pokémon natures, award rare ribbons and catch several brand new legendary critters.

You can do a lot more than catch ’em all now – here are the cheats for Pokémon Ruby.

How to cheat in Pokémon Ruby

Bear in mind that while you can use emulators, to cheat the legitimate way you will need a Game Boy Advance, a physical copy of Pokémon Ruby and a GameShark.

Once attached and booted up, all you need to do is enter the code for your chosen cheat as listed below and then start the game.
