The Kanto region is the crown jewel in the Pokemon Main Series games, it is where it all started; the 151 Pokemon that inhabit this region are, by far, some of the most popular Pokemon.
To celebrate this region, many remakes have come out in the past, Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green in the 3rd generation, and Pokemon Let’s GO a few years ago.
Pokemon Leaf Green and Fire Red are some of the best Pokemon main series games, and it is no surprise to see players going back to them to get a taste of the Kanto region once again.
But as it has been more than a decade since the game came out, they have aged, and you’ll probably get bored from the repetitive stuff in the games.
In this listicle, we have brought you the 10 Best Pokemon Leaf Green Cheats of 2023 so that you can skip over the bland parts and have the best possible Pokemon playthrough!
Before you use any cheat, make sure you save the game file, as cheats can sometimes cause glitches. Also, never use a lot of cheats together, it is a recipe for disaster, and you’ll most probably crash your game.
Be sure to check out our best Pokemon Fire Red cheats if you prefer that version of the game.

10. Walk Through Walls
As the name suggests, with this cheat, you’ll be able to access areas of the Kanto region that was once not accessible to you; this might be due to the amount of progress you’ve made in the game or simply because the devs didn’t intend you to go there.
This cheat will allow you to go through walls in Pokemon Leaf Green, and by walls, we mean every structure in the game that you weren’t able to go through before, including trees.
The cheat is really fun to use. However, it can easily crash your game or, even worse, corrupt your save file as you’re literally going off the map.
So make sure when you’re using this cheat, not many cheats are being used simultaneously, and always save before going through walls.

7. No Random Battles
Pokemon Leaf Green might be a great game, but it doesn’t hold a candle to some of the new games we get in 2023.
You’ll have to grind a lot if you want to visit a new area in the Kanto region as the path is filled with trainers waiting for you to come and battle them, this starts to get repetitive after a point, and the game just feels boring.
You can now skip over all these random battles by implementing this cheat; you won’t have to battle any random stranger on the road again.
But be warned, this way, your Pokemon will be under-leveled when you reach the next gym. You can use the rare candy cheat to increase your levels.

6. Steal Enemy Trainer’s Pokemon
Most of the time, when you battle in Pokemon, the opponent gym leader will be on a higher level than you are (unless you’re grinding like crazy).
So now you can use these to your advantage with this cheat. As the name suggests, the cheat will allow you to steal your enemy trainer’s Pokemon, which applies to every opponent, not just the gym leaders.
How to use: To steal the opponent’s Pokemon, you must throw a Pokeball at it. But before you do so, press the L+R keys repeatedly multiple times; this will ensure you get the actual Pokemon your opponent was using and not a bad egg. However, if you get a bad egg, close the game without saving.

1. Unlimited Rare Candies
Grinding for levels is one of the worst parts of the Pokemon main-series games, especially the older ones where you don’t get EXP share, so now you have to individually train every Pokemon to gain levels.

When given to a Pokemon, these rare candies increase their level by 1. With this cheat, you’ll get an infinite amount of Rare Candies, so now you can level up every Pokemon without grinding in the grass patches.
