There's more to it. I don't have the money to keep trying, I've had to brick so many gameboys. Do you know how hard it is to convince the store for a refund when they can tell you were using a gameshark? What about your friends? Secondhand prices, just to attempt this dumb... "secret".

I spent one of them altering what codes I input like walk through walls... pokemart HMs... either they're faulty, or I'm inputting them wrong.

Why did I have to keep trying that same path? I haven't deleted the video yet, because if people can come to the same revelation as me, we could find out so much more about this game. We could see what
