Be REALLY? Haha… xD

Yes, I use cheats all the time. Gameshark, AR, you name it. I even pay other people to cheat fpr me. I’m so proud of myself.

To BE REALLY, I have cheated in the past.
BUT, when excluding the good ol' Missingno in RB and some cloning by trading or that one box trick in GS, which all happened way back (and is not 3rd gen.), it's all only been cheats that I needed for some gimmick runs. Like, changing the starter or letting something spawn in the first route that shouldn't be there.
I really hate this kind of "do this to get a level 100 Arceus with Hyper Beam, et cetera, et cetera"-kind of cheats (or, to make this 3rd gen, let's say Rayquaza instead of Arceus), I always find tons of these before I find an actual Pokemon spawning modifier.
Seriously, cheating is only fun when it changes the gaming experience, evertything else is for people who can't complete the game without level 100 legendaries.

I cheated up until 3rd gen. It was my cousin who had gotten me into it. Once 4th gen came around and common sense hit me, I stopped cheating. (My friend did borrow my game at one point though and got me some nice Pokemon, so yeah. But I didn't think she was gonna do all of that.)

Hmm.. Does it count if you got your pokemon from people who cheated? If it is, then yes I have "cheated." I got a whole bunch of pokies for FR from my cousin you had an Action Replay. But I never tried it on my own game because I'm pretty sure it messed his all up. >:O

When I first started playing Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, I once used a cheat to gain infinite Rare Candies. I can't think of any of other times when I cheated the game.

Well..... I still use the cheat to get reloadable Master Balls in Pokemon Colloseum. Ha ha.

I already was REALLY.

...Heh, I wonder if I could come up with an acronym for "really" that would be appropriate for this situation.

Anyhow, yes I have cheated. It started with a Gameshark for Sapphire, and I keep doing today. No, I'm not fighting anybody with hacked pokemon or anything like that. I just like to experiment with stuff. I also unlock events that have passed me by due to lack of Wi-Fi.

...And introducing Riolu as a starter is so much fun.

It's just too fun to play on an emulator and pull in any pokemon I want when playing RSE. I do have my honest playthroughs though. I just like having specific runs where the objective is to beat the game using whatever pokemon I manage to pull in. XD

Never, I have never cheated in any 1st, 2nd, 3rd Gen game, I only ceated in 4th Gen after I finished em because I was bored.

In Pokemon Sapphire. I had 200/202 in my Pokedex, only Feebas and Milotic left. I've lost the game now, but yeah, not a single cheat used EVER in that.
Proud to have completed the solo challenges for Leaf Green (Lunatone) and Silver (Hypno)

<obligatory "Be REALLY" joke goes here>

I have never cheated beyond using in-game glitches like the cloning glitches in Gold & Silver and Emerald. I've never used (or owned, for that matter) a GameShark or Action Replay or any of those things. For one, it takes the fun out of the game if there's no challenge and two, I like that sense of accomplishment from working hard to raise my pokémon.
