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]] (requires going out of the shop and back in).
 
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.
