Official Fake Cheats Thread

[HRBEK]

I have been looking around in the Nintendo 64 section, and for Banjo-Tooie I have found 2 bogus cheats. They are:

*Play As Boggy
*Play As Gruntilda

Also for Pok'emon Stadium, the following cheats are fake:

*ChronoMew
*Get Togepi
*Real way to get Muk (Wrong game)

There is also a small problem with the Magnemite cheat for Pok'emon Snap. Can you edit codes Genie? If not, delete that one and I can send in a clearer version (under either the current sender's name or mine, but that is up to you).

By the way, the following cheat for Mario Party 2 is fake:

*Play as Bowser

I'm checking over Yoshi's Story cheats right now. I have found a fake cheat for it now......

*Purple Yoshi

There is a cheat for Fighter's Destiny that is wrong. Here it is:

*Winning poses (I know this is wrong because you don't need to press any buttons to make the characters do winning poses)

Thanks,
HRBEK.

[The Genie]

thanks hrbek, i will remove them today.

[HRBEK]

Good stuff Genie. I have found a few more bogus cheats........ Here are 4 that I am positive are fake (for Pok'emon Ruby; Gameboy Advance):

*Blue Electrike
*Deoxys & Jiirachi (not [N]eto's cheat under the name; "Deoxys 'And' Jiirachi")
*Find Jirochi
*Green Taillow

The reason I am so harsh on cheats that tell you where to find Shining Pok'emon, is that there is actually no set place to find them. I myself have seen similar cheats and went on a mindless hunt to find such Pok'emon, and have failed, and I don't want people doing the same after seeing the cheats on our site. It is bad for our reputation.

I haven't finished checking the Pok'emon Ruby cheats, so expect more fake cheats there.

Thanks,
HRBEK.

Sorry for double-posting...... From now on, I will update this post if I find any more bogus cheats, and I have found a few, and a few that are slightly inaccurate.

POK'EMON RUBY VERSION

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

*Magikarp (It can be caught using a Good Rod too)
*Mirage Island (As there is a more accurate code for the same issue just above it)

Bogus Cheats:

*Obtain The Legendary Deoxys Or Jirachi
*Pink Poochyena
*Rocket launch
*About mirrage island
*Shiny Swablu
*The Ultimate Pokemon Team (Just another dumb opinion)

Actually, I think they are the only remaining off-track cheats for Pok'emon Ruby Version........ There could be 1 or 2 that I have missed.

POK'EMON SAPPHIRE VERSION

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

*Magikarp (It can be caught using a Good Rod too)

Bogus Cheats:

*Blue and Green Carvahna (Shining Pok'emon can appear anywhere)
*Blue Electrike
*Catch a pokemon always!
*Catching Jirachi
*Deoxys & Jirachi (by: David)
*How to get Jirachi
*How to get Latias (I have not tested this one, but I am confident that it is fake)
*Orange Altaria
*Orange Zigzagoon
*Shiny Volbeat
*Shiny Swablu
*Shiny/weird colord pok'emon

POK'EMON LEAF GREEN VERSION

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

*Gengar (There are 2 cheats called Gengar, one should be deleted as they are the same)
*Puppy Starters ([N]eto posted a cheat that was exactly the same earlier)
*The Most Powerful Team (That is merely an opinion, and a very dumb one)
*Unown (DaRk WoLf sent this cheat in twice, but worded the two differently)

Bogus Cheats:

*Deoxys (By: pokemonmaster)
*Mew (By: DaRk WoLf)
*Sacred Ash (By: DaRk WoLf, didin't notice that I had already sent that cheat in)

POK'EMON FIRE RED VERSION

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

Bogus Cheats:

*Catch Deoxys
*Deoxys, Jirachi and Jiroxy
*To get Riachi

POK'EMON EMERALD VERSION

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

Bogus Cheats:

*Work a PokeBall like a MasterBall

Thanks,
HRBEK.

[MORSN417]

it is pathetic on how many fake cheats r sent in

Good work HRBEK!

[HRBEK]

Lol, I agree with you there, but we must understand that some people do not send these fake cheats deliberately. In fact, some of these people may just be trying to help out. They may have seen these fake cheats somewhere else and just sent them in (not knowing that they were fake). Of course there are also those who are just low-lives with nothing better to do.

I have found some more bogus cheats. I will have them up right away Genie! By the way, I have been looking around in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System section and I have found a few codes that i believe are fake. I have already confirmed that one is. I will continue looking though.

SUPER BOMBERMAN 3

Slightly Inaccurate Cheats:

Bogus Cheats:

*Bonus Levels

Thanks,
HRBEK.

[DeFJaM]

man, bogus cheatsenders beware!!!!!! HRBEK is out to get you!!!!!!

[HRBEK]

Lol, unfortunately, I know that I will never be able to identify all of the bogus ones. I can knock out a few. I will look through some other Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo Entertainment System game sections today and see what I find.

Thanks,
HRBEK.

[~Felly~]

^_^ You're good at this whole bogus cheat thing, HRBEK!! Maybe I can look through the PS2, Gamecube, and PSP sections of the games I own to see if there are fakes.

[MORSN417]

ya, maybe i could look though the PS2 section

[~Felly~]

Just looked through Gamecube's Super Smash Brothers Melee and found a fake.

*Unlock Luigi (By: Matt)

You can't unlock Luigi by beating Adventure twice on any difficulty level. I wanted to add another way of getting Luigi, and I tried that. It's not possible.

[HRBEK]

Haha. good work Fire Element Lord! Keep looking, as there are probably hundreds of fake cheats still remaining. I will continue to edit my posts to include more bogus cheats!

Thanks,
HRBEK.

[~Felly~]

Thanx, HRBEK.
