Are there any Pokémon Sword and Shield GBA cheat codes? Sword and Shield is the Generation VIII game, so this version is not the typical one. This is a ROM hack that ports the game into a GameBoy-esque style. It’s not on an actual GameBoy, but rather a modded version online. It would be almost impossible to put a Nintendo Switch game on an older console like that.
Still, it’s effectively the same game, just in a very different format. Players still play through the same Galar region with the same routes, they’re just in GameBoy graphics. It’s a pretty popular game since it combines the new and old eras of Pokémon. As a result, a lot of players want to try it out. Like many modded games, this does come with cheat codes. They’re not part of the original game and often do things Nintendo would never have done. Nevertheless, they are a part of the modded ROM version of Pokémon Sword and Shield.
Keep in mind that cheat codes can cause issues with games, whether it’s a glitch or causing it to completely crash. As a result, you will need to save frequently and especially right before you enter the code. This will ensure you lose as little progress as possible in the case of a crash. Here are the cheat codes and what they do.
When playing with cheats, the gameplay is not how the creator intended. Things they put in for a specific purpose are often skipped. Many times, this leaves a player’s Pokémon team underleveled. You might get to a certain point in the game and be woefully unequipped to take on what’s next. Fortunately, rare candies can be used to level up Pokémon, all the way to level 100. Here’s the code:
With this, you can level every single Pokémon all the way to 100 without much trouble. This can also be used to force evolution if that’s how they evolve.
To get unlimited PP, use the following code:
PP determines how often you can use a move. With this code, those powerful moves that you can only use five or 10 times in the course of a battle no longer have those pesky limitations.
Getting the gym badges is the main way to make progress through the game. Not only does it mean you’ve taken down x amount of the region’s gyms and are thus moving towards the Elite Four and the Champion, but it also means higher-level Pokémon can be caught and will obey trainers. This code will give you all eight right away, so you don’t have to worry about that:
To use this, enter the cheat and battle with someone. After that, enter any building and check the Trainer card. If there are no badges, go outside and enter again. You may have to do this up to five times to ensure it works.
Complete the Pokédex code
Completing the Pokédex is a huge accomplishment. It signifies that you have truly caught them all, and many times, it comes with a very helpful reward. Whether it’s for the reward or because you are a completionist, here’s a code to complete the Dex right away:
This is one of the more troublesome cheats, so be very careful with saving on this one.
The only way in any Pokémon game to 100% guarantee a catch is to use a Master Ball. No Pokémon can escape it. The only problem is that most games only give one. Even in Sword and Shield, that’s not enough because trainers can catch either Zamazenta or Zacian and Eternatus, but there’s only one Master Ball. With this code, you can have infinite Master Balls:
Never worry about a single catch in this game ever again.
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, if a trainer on a route sees you, they will engage you in battle. It’s very hard to sneak around and avoid them, but this code turns them off:
Ultimately, this does remove a chance for your team to level up, but it also removes one of the most annoying and tedious parts of the game.
Ever been in a battle where you desperately need a move to land and remove all of the Pokémon’s health points? It’s a scary situation, and it often doesn’t work out. With this code, you can kill the Pokémon in one hit:
This can be the difference maker in a given battle.
Stats can be random for Pokémon. You might catch one with good stats or bad stats. This can be changed, though. You can maximize your team’s stats with a code:
Naturally, it works for the six Pokémon currently in your team. You can change them out and do it again, though.

Not only can you change the stats with a cheat code, but you can also change its nature. Natures are random, but some are better than others. Here’s how to change their nature to whatever you want:
TMs can be used to teach Pokémon any move. With this, they can become even better for struggling and can give you excellent type coverage. First, enter this string of text as the first part of the code:
After that, you need to enter the four digits that specify which TM you want. They are:
After using this cheat, go to the shop and buy the first item on the list. It shouldn’t be terribly expensive. Whichever item you got from the code should also show up in your inventory.
You can change the gender of a Pokémon by using this code:
Some Pokémon genders are important. For example, a Nidoran can be either male or female, and that determines its evolution. Only a female Combee can evolve. There are countless examples, and some genders even have visual differences. With this code, you’ll never have the wrong gender again.
This game, even though it’s technically a newer game, has barriers and walls. This keeps the game semi-linear. With this code, you can go right through them:
Now, you can truly go wherever you want, whenever you want to.
Please remember to be very careful when using cheats and always save when you should.
