The Cloning Cheat

This is the Cloning Cheat. It will only work in Emerald Version.

Don't worry about your game file. This is not a glitch. I have tested this cheat countless times and have had absolutely no side effects. But, even though I have tested it so many times, you should only try this cheat at your own risk. To test, first use it on a Pokemon that you don't really need; just to be sure.
This cheat can also be used to clone items; just make a Pokemon hold the item, then clone it.

Ok, let's begin. To clone a Pokemon, carefully follow these steps:

  1. Save in front of the PC in the Battle Tower.
  2. Deposit the pokemon you want to clone in an empty box.
  3. Exit the box and save again.
  4. Go to the PC one more time and withdraw the pokemon you wanted to clone. (i.e. the one that's in an empty box)
  5. Talk to the lady behind the desk on the far right, and she will ask you to join a Multi Battle.
  6. Select ‘challenge’ then ‘Lv. 50/Open level’ and choose any two pokemon. (doesn’t matter which, you're not actually going to be battling)
  7. When she asks if you want to save, select Yes.
  8. If everything so far has been done correctly, the game will pause for about one second before doing anything else.
  9. After this one second of nothing, turn off your game. Don't continue talking.
  10. When you turn the game back on, the pokemon is in both the PC and in your party.
Congratulations, you've just cloned a Pokemon.
