That's not a secret part of the site, you can reach it by clicking the Bek icon on the left of every page :P

And Game Boy/Game Boy Color games never need (M) codes.

Are you entering them as gameshark codes? I made and tested all of them with only VBA so it shouldn't ask for anything special.

Also, that's not a secret part of the site.. there are a few things though that aren't linked to the main page that are kinda neat, here are two:

DenDex Revamp An unfinished update to the E-Index, it includes Denjuu's correct names, attacks, name meanings, etc.
E-Mon Generator Something silly I made for no particular reason. Basically comes up with random Denjuu descriptions, I should make it better sometime.

This game is really enjoyable when you look past the mistranslations. sure it feels a bit weird at first, but it still is a good game. I once thought kuriputo was a deformed sandslash , and punika as a different and much cuter version of pikachu. And the fixed movesets were annoying too. but it still engrossed me and i finished through most of the game before the savestates expired.

Hey, this game's not that bad, because this game focuses on making denjuu friends, which is good lah

Friends are good lol

Anyway I got this game in some Pokemon 61 in 1 CD which had a GBC Emulator with Pokemon roms and this, because they thought it was really Pokemon xD

There are other underated games, like Dino Device or Bugsite. I haven't heard of those until I discovered Wikifang.

It's translated badly, has glitches that the original doesn't have (such as being unable to load a saved game), and misuses the Pokémon name. This probably caused people to think that it was a bad attempt at a Pokémon game, even though it was never meant to be one in the first place. It felt like Pokémon... with a twist. Instead of Poké Balls, you use a cell phone to battle other... Denjuu. And the gameplay was radically different, but it felt fresh. It also took a while to beat too, though the mazes were rather annoying. Who else likes this game?
Well let's put it this way:

We owe it to Pokemon. If it wasn't for Pokemon's popularity, Telefang would have anything name to use to make itself known by us in America. People found out about Telefang through the Pokemon bootlegs.

Though if it weren't for Telefang's misguided reputation as a "pokemon ripoff" then the Japanese version would have been picked up and translated by romhacking groups by this point. Yet we are left to piece it together ourselves. Sucks eh.

Hell if pokemon never existed then telefang may have taken its place. Think about that. To be honest Pokemon has been recycled so many times it's not funny.
