Using an emulator is the easiest way to use cheats in Pokémon LeafGreen. If you want to cheat using your actual Game Boy, you'll need to purchase a Gameshark or Action Replay.

This Rare Candy code will replace the first slot in your PC item storage with 999 Rare Candies. If there is anything in the first spot, it will be deleted when you enter the code.

These codes are created by users, and interact with the game in ways that were never intended. This means that they will work for some people but not for others. Using codes means you are willing to risk losing all of your saved progress, as no code is guaranteed to work.

This will open the "Cheat list" window.

Click the . Gameshark... button. This will allow you to enter codes for both Gameshark and Action Replay.

Enter "Rare Candy" into the description, and copy the following code into the Code field.

82025840 0044
{"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/be\/1496433-7.jpg\/v4-460px-1496433-7.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/be\/1496433-7.jpg\/v4-728px-1496433-7.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}

OK to save and enable the Rare Candy code. You may need to enter and exit a building for it to take effect.
{"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/bd\/1496433-8.jpg\/v4-460px-1496433-8.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/bd\/1496433-8.jpg\/v4-728px-1496433-8.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}

You should see the Rare Candies in the first spot in your item storage. The number available will likely have a "?", but you should be able to withdraw as many Rare Candies as you can hold.

Codes won't work for everyone, so if you don't get results, try an alternate set of codes. This alternate option requires two codes: a Master code and the Rare Candy code. Create them the same way you created the previous code. Make sure that the previous code is disabled by unchecking it in the Cheats list.

Question

What happens to a rare candy when you use it on a max-level Pokemon? Does it disappear from the bag?

Community Answer

Nothing happens, unless you're playing Red or Blue and you use the glitch to get above level 100.

Question

What is the rare candy code?

Community Answer

It's a candy you can give your Pokemon to instantly level it. 1 candy = 1 level.

Tips

An alternative, more legitimate, but much more time-consuming method is to use a Pokémon with the "Pick Up" ability, such as Meowth. At high levels, these Pokémon can occasionally pick up items such as Rare Candy after battles.
