Have an extremely powerful Pokemon that you want two of? Cloning it is just the way to do this. By abusing a glitch in the game you can be the most unstoppable Trainer in the world! Make another copy of a Pokemon and its hold item without using Gameshark or ActionReplay.

Step 1  

Move the Pokemon in your PC around so that you have at least 2 empty boxes.

Step 2  

Move the Pokemon you want to duplicate into your party.

Step 3  

Equip the Pokemon with valuable items that you might want to copy (e.g. Master Ball, Rare Candy, Nugget, etc.)

Step 4  

Switch to an empty box in your PC. When it asks you if you want to save, select "yes".

Step 5  

Deposit the Pokemon you want to duplicate into the empty box of your PC.

Step 6  

Now switch to another empty box in your PC. CAUTION, when it says do you want to save, select "yes," but keep an eye on the message at the bottom.

Step 7  

Text will flash across the bottom, saying "Saving, don't turn of the power." Right when the whole word "power" shows on the screen, turn off the power immediately.

Step 8  

Turn on the power. Check your party and your PC box. If it worked, you should have the Pokemon in both your party and your PC box.

Step 9  

Do you want to know how it works? When it saves the change in data, it first saves the data of the Pokemon in the box, then deletes the data of the Pokemon in your party. But if you turn off the GameBoy right between the save and the delete, you have both the Pokemon in your party and your PC box.

Tips

  • This trick is much harder and riskier to perform in Crystal, although it is still possible.
  • Practice makes perfect. If it messes up, release the Pokemon messed up, and try it again.
  • Try to equip the Pokemon with rare or valuable items to get more out of the process.
  • You can bargain with a friend, and trade the duplicated Pokemon (hopefully rare) with some other Pokemon you don't have.
  • Works with any Pokemon and items.
  • clone 6 eevees and you are all set for the 5 evolutions of eevee and itself.

Warnings

  • Read all of the instructions before repeating!

Things You'll Need

  • A Gameboy color, Gameboy Advance or Emulator
  • A Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal game cartridge or ROM (beware, ROMs are illegal if you don't already own the game)
  • At least 2 empty boxes in your Pokemon PC
