How to make the most of the Infinite Money exploit in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, there are technically a few ways to abuse the Infinite Money exploit. This guide will offer you a couple of simple methods that should be easy to use and give you unlimited Pokedollars. This will, however, require gamers to execute some steps correctly.

Having an Infinite Money exploit is extremely valuable in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet since these two games have a plethora of expensive items worth purchasing if one is a competitive player. That said, these exploits will be beneficial for casual players as well if they're strapped for cash. Let's look at the first method, which involves Picnics.

How to take advantage of Infinite Money exploit in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

Here is a step-by-step text guide on how to use the Infinite Money exploit in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet:

1. Go to Cascarrafa (North) and head to the Asado Desert.
2. Look for the little glittering items on the ground.
3. Save the game.
4. Check the little glittering items to see if there's anything valuable, like Stardust or Star Pieces.
5. If it is one of these items, close the game. Otherwise, repeat steps two to four.
6. Restart your game and try to create a Picnic so the item is very close to the table and basket.
7. Wait a few minutes.
8. Just keep checking the basket to continually get a message that there is an item in it.

You can finish the Picnic when you're done taking advantage of this glitch. The Infinite Money aspect of this bug comes from the fact that you can sell duplicate items. If you use this trick with something like Stardusts, then you can sell them for several thousand Pokedollars each.

Also, the duplicated items will still be on the ground for you to pick up. Technically you don't have to use the glitch in the Asado Desert, but this area has good spawn rates for items that can be sold for decent cash.

Another method to use Infinite Money exploit

Though players will still use the glitch in the Asado Desert, this time, the actual execution is noticeably different. Here is a step-by-step guide:

1. Go to the Asado Desert.
2. Collect every glittering item on the ground.
3. Fly to a different town.
4. Change your Nintendo Switch date.

This method requires a little more effort than the previous one, but some trainers might find it more reliable.
