Line 1:
The '''date change exploit''' is an exploit in the Pokémon series, where the player can re-access certain daily events by manually changing the day of the week, either from in-game (Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal) or through the Nintendo DS or 3DS firmware (Generation IV-, Generation VVI).
 
Similar exploits include the [[Daylight Saving Time exploit]] and the [[midnight exploit]]. The latter can be used to change events in Pokémon games from [[bp:Generation IV|Generation IV]] to [[bp:Generation V|Generation V]] that won't change with the date change exploit.
Line 27:
Things that the player can do after changing the day of the week include but are likely not limited to: accessing the [[bp:Bug-Catching Contest|Bug-Catching Contest]] from any day of the week rather than a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday, and causing the move tutor outside of the Goldenrod Game Corner in Pokémon Crystal to appear.
 
==In [[bp:Generation IV|Generation IV]], [[bp:Generation V|Generation V]] and [[bp:Generation VI|Generation VI]]==
The date change exploit can be used to do a limited number of things such as:
 
*Causing [[bp:Drifloon (Pokémon)|Drifloon]] to appear outside the [[bp:Valley Windworks|Valley Windworks]] in [[bp:Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl]] and [[bp:Pokémon Platinum Version|Platinum]] (if the date is changed to Friday).
*Changing the [[bp:Pokéathlon Dome|Pokéathlon Dome]] prizes in [[bp:Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver]].
*Changing the clothes in a boutique in [[bp:Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X and Y]] (requires going out of the shop and back in, or upstairs/downstairs for [[bp:Lumiose City|Lumiose City]]'s Boutique Couture).
*Purchasing the Casteliacone in [[bp:Castelia City|Castelia City]] in Pokémon Black and White (if the date is changed to Tuesday).
*Changing the clothes in a boutique in [[bp:Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X and Y]].
 
All the player needs to do is change the day of the week on their Nintendo DS or Nintendo 3DS firmware, though the [[midnight exploit]] has to be used if the player wants to cheat for most other events, such as changing swarm Pokémon.
