A Cheat Code is a secret word or phrase that may grant access to certain bonuses. Cheat Codes may be distributed at the PokéFarm Q Staff's discretion. This means that the Staff can choose when and where to distribute Cheat Codes, possibly extending beyond the PokéFarm Q site. Users that are mindful of PokéFarm Q's communications are not likely to miss out on Cheat Codes.

Certain limitations apply to the use of Cheat Codes. Each user may only ever use a given Cheat Code once. Some Cheat Codes may also have a limited time availability before becoming invalid; Event Cheat Codes, for example, usually work for at least two weeks.[1]

Using a Cheat Code

To use a Cheat Code, users must visit the Cheat codes page which is is located in the "Other Links" section of the Farm page. Users must then enter a valid Cheat Code, or a pop-up will appear telling them that the cheat code is invalid.

Effects of Cheat Codes

Each unique Cheat Code can have its own effect on the user. The known effects are listed:

  • Distribution of Pokémon: A Pokémon will be put in the user's Party, but only if there is an empty slot.
  • Distribution of Pokémon Eggs: A Pokémon Egg will be put in the user's Collection Area.
  • Distribution of Items: Items such as Cookies will be deposited into the user's Inventory.
  • Time Extensions: Timers on bonuses such as Hypermode or UberCharms may be extended, if already active.
  • Dead Shiny Charm Recharging: Any and all Dead Shiny Charms not being charged may be instantly recharged.
  • FabuBar♥ Boosting: Progress on the weekly FabuBar♥ may be incremented by a preset amount.
