Why the code may not work
- The PC code was entered as CodeBreaker instead of GameShark.
- You checked the bag instead of PC Item Storage.
- The ROM is a hack, a different region or a modified dump.
- Another item code is writing to the same memory address.
- The emulator needs you to leave and re-enter the Pokemon Center after enabling the code.
Protect the save file
Keep a backup of the .sav file before enabling any memory code. Run one item cheat at a time, withdraw the items, disable the cheat, and only then save in-game. Rare Candies raise levels without awarding battle EVs, so a candy-only roster may need EV training later.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Pokemon Emerald Rare Candy cheat?
BFF956FA 2F9EC50D, entered as a GameShark v3 or Action Replay code, fills PC Item Storage with Rare Candies.
Why are the candies not in my bag?
The GameShark code writes to the Pokemon Center PC Item Storage. Use your own PC and choose Withdraw Item.
Does the code work on a ROM hack?
Not reliably. ROM hacks can move the memory address and should use codes written specifically for that hack.
