How to RNG a held pokemon item
16:25 Zari ok
16:26 coolbiz wait
16:26 Zari yes?
16:26 coolbiz I need something to aim for
16:26 Zari ok
16:26 Zari doesn't matter what to me
16:26 Zari though 1% items require double battle grass
16:27 Zari 5% can be done on normal grass however
16:27 coolbiz ok lemme find a 5%
16:27 Zari alright
16:29 coolbiz You know of any that are before driftveil?
16:29 Zari let me check
16:29 coolbiz Thats only how far i got :3
16:29 Zari yes
16:29 Zari mental herb on route 20
16:29 Zari it's on sewaddle
16:30 Zari assuming bw2
16:30 coolbiz Which is easier? 1 or 2
16:30 Zari well
16:30 Zari 2 has more held items
16:30 coolbiz So far I have only been ab;e to RNG 1 pokemon in white 2
16:30 Zari 1 is easier to manipulate
16:30 coolbiz Lets do 2 then
16:30 Zari because less timer0s
16:31 coolbiz Let me head to route 20
16:31 Zari ok
16:31 Zari you have the usual stuff right
16:31 coolbiz yeah
16:31 Zari you'll need chatots at the very least
16:31 coolbiz 2 chatots 1 smeargle
16:31 coolbiz and a useless synch
16:32 Zari ok good
16:32 Zari you can box the sync
16:32 coolbiz kk
16:32 Zari since that isn't needed for item rng
16:32 Zari since we're going for the item and not the mon itself
16:33 coolbiz yeah
16:34 Zari actually
16:34 Zari mental herb is on sewaddle in bw1 too
16:34 Zari we could do bw1 abuse faster most likely
16:34 Zari because less time spent hitting timer0s
16:34 coolbiz Ok lemme fly there in b1 then
16:35 Zari actually
16:35 Zari here
16:35 Zari
http://www.serebii.net/blackwhite/holditems.shtml
16:35 Zari pick an item from there
16:35 Zari that you want to RNG
16:35 coolbiz oh cool
16:35 Zari i'll do the same
16:38 coolbiz Im gonna do mental herb like before
16:38 coolbiz Dont have one of those yet
16:39 Zari ok
16:39 Zari I'm gonna do a big nugget lol
16:39 coolbiz cool
16:39 coolbiz oh no
16:40 coolbiz Im gonna do a light clay
16:40 coolbiz crap
16:40 coolbiz nevermind ill stick with mental herb
16:43 coolbiz you there?
16:44 Zari yeah
16:44 Zari just checking the research thread for double battles
16:44 Zari on wild hold items
16:44 coolbiz mk take your time
16:44 coolbiz please
16:45 coolbiz Im doing it in lostlorn forest with no NPCs
16:46 Zari alright
16:47 Zari let me just test to make sure this works the way I think it does
16:47 coolbiz ok
16:47 Zari then I'll walk you through the steps
16:47 coolbiz ok
16:47 coolbiz OH CRAP
16:48 Zari ?
16:48 coolbiz somehow my parameters got deleted
16:48 Zari
16:48 coolbiz one sec I have them somewhere
16:48 coolbiz Ok there on my phone im good
16:56 coolbiz Were using researcher right?
17:01 Zari yes
17:01 Zari ok
17:01 Zari I figured out how it works
17:01 coolbiz cool
17:01 Zari and got a garbodor with a big nugget lol
17:01 coolbiz oh thats pretty cool
17:01 Zari ya
17:02 Zari ok
17:02 Zari you have researcher open?
17:02 coolbiz yes
17:02 Zari alright
17:02 Zari I'll give you a screenshot so you know what you have to look for
17:02 coolbiz ok
17:02 Zari gimme a sec
17:03 coolbiz mhm
17:03 coolbiz I found the post btw
17:03 Zari there's actually 2 of them
17:03 Zari on different pages
17:04 coolbiz I found kaphotics
17:04 coolbiz page 29
17:04 Zari one by kaph and one by chiizu
17:04 Zari ya
17:04 Zari here's the other one
17:04 Zari

17:04 Zari ok
17:04 Zari so here's what you gotta do
17:05 coolbiz yes
17:08 Zari sorry
17:08 Zari imgur was taking it's sweet time uploading
17:08 Zari
17:08 coolbiz lol
17:09 Zari that's what you gotta set up researcher like
17:09 coolbiz ok
17:09 Zari just match the custom 1 and custom 2
17:09 Zari on yours
17:10 coolbiz ok
17:10 Zari on the custom 2
17:10 coolbiz Not the seed right?
17:10 Zari not the seed
17:10 Zari don't worry about that yet
17:10 coolbiz k
17:10 Zari so
17:10 Zari 0-49 on custom 2
17:10 Zari means the pokemon will hold a 50% item
17:10 coolbiz ok
17:11 Zari 50-54 = 5%
17:11 Zari and 55 alone = 1% in doubles grass only
17:11 coolbiz ok
17:11 Zari let me take another pic to explain the process of going about RNGing the item
17:17 Zari alright
17:17 Zari
17:18 Zari basically
17:18 Zari you need to find a seed
17:18 Zari where the desired item frame comes 2 after the correct encounter slot
17:18 coolbiz any random seed?
17:18 Zari any random seed
17:19 Zari that has that characteristic
17:19 Zari at a reasonable frame
17:19 Zari what you need to do
17:19 Zari is just have time finder search
17:19 Zari then
17:19 Zari select a seed
17:19 Zari paste it in RNG reporter main window
17:19 Zari find the starting PID frame
17:20 Zari via calculate initial PIDRNG frame
17:20 coolbiz mhm
17:20 Zari then paste that same seed into researcher and generate
17:20 Zari make sure that the common RNGs
17:20 Zari is set to bw rng
17:20 Zari the max results to 1000
17:20 Zari then click generate
17:20 coolbiz mhm
17:21 Zari alright
17:21 Zari now what you need to do
17:21 Zari is scroll down to the initial PID frame you found in the main window
17:21 Zari +2
17:21 Zari er
17:21 Zari +3
17:21 coolbiz ?
17:22 Zari this is in researcher btw
17:22 Zari the +3 is the offset for the item
17:22 Zari we're gonna look for a nice item frame
17:22 Zari since you're going for a 5% item
17:22 Zari the custom 2
17:22 Zari should be 50-54
17:22 coolbiz use PID with encounter slot of pokemon with item?
17:22 Zari one of those numbers
17:23 Zari ok
17:23 Zari hold on
17:23 Zari you're jumping ahead
17:23 coolbiz ok
17:23 Zari what we need to do is find a frame, in researcher, that yields the desired item
17:23 Zari so custom 2
17:23 Zari has to be 50, 51, 52, 53, or 54
17:23 Zari one of those 5 values
17:24 Zari but it has to be on a frame higher than the initial PID frame you found + 3
17:24 coolbiz ok
17:24 Zari you wouldn't be able to hit that frame otherwise
17:24 Zari which is why I had you check the starting PID frame for your seed
17:25 Zari tell me when you find one
17:25 Zari that has one of those 5 custom 2 values
17:28 coolbiz I would have to do 114 for my desired item...
17:28 Zari whoa whoa whoa
17:28 Zari hold on
17:28 Zari what frame is the custom2 value on
17:29 Zari and what is the initial PIDRNG frame
17:29 coolbiz 54
17:29 coolbiz 48
17:29 Zari hmm
17:29 Zari can you screenshot the researcher?
17:29 Zari I want to make sure you have everything correct
17:29 coolbiz sure
17:30 coolbiz how do you screenshot?
17:30 coolbiz The button is not on here
17:31 Zari it is "prt sc"
17:31 Zari should be in the upper right-ish portion of your keyboard
17:31 coolbiz found it
17:31 Zari then just open a program like paint
17:31 Zari and control + v
17:34 coolbiz
17:35 coolbiz there it is
17:35 Zari ok lemme let it load
17:35 Zari ok
17:35 Zari in the image
17:35 Zari you see the 16bit low?
17:36 coolbiz yeah
17:36 Zari you're gonna need to match that to a frame in the main RNG reporter window
17:37 Zari you just need a match of 16 bit low and the right half of the PIDRNG frame pid
17:37 Zari don't worry if the left half doesn't exactly match the 16 bit high
17:37 Zari and that matching frame should be around the researcher frame +3
17:37 Zari er
17:37 Zari -3
17:37 Zari in other words
17:37 Zari should be 159 in the main window
17:38 coolbiz i dont understand...
17:38 Zari ok
17:38 Zari let me explain it another way
17:38 Zari in the main RNG reporter window
17:38 Zari scroll down to frame 159
17:38 coolbiz it matches
17:39 Zari after clicking generate with method set to gen5pidrng
17:39 Zari ok
17:39 Zari good
17:39 Zari that frame, 159
17:39 Zari is the frame your item gets generated on
17:39 coolbiz ok
17:39 Zari item gets generated AFTER nature and pid
17:39 Zari so two frames before 159 in the main window
17:39 Zari is the encounter slot that it will use
17:40 Zari so
17:40 Zari is frame 157 the correct encounter slot for your mon?
17:40 coolbiz lemme see
17:40 Zari if not, you're gonna have to repeat the process and find one where it is
17:41 coolbiz yes it does
17:41 Zari if it is
17:41 Zari then you're set
17:41 Zari all you need to do now
17:41 Zari is hit your seed
17:41 Zari then advance to frame 156
17:41 Zari sweet scent
17:41 coolbiz k
17:41 Zari and catch the mon
17:41 Zari if you did everything correctly, then the swadloon should have the mental herb item
17:41 coolbiz ok
17:42 coolbiz lemme get this log real quick for future reference
17:42 Zari your last chatter call should match the chatot value OF frame 156
17:42 Zari since you're not doing doubles grass
17:42 Zari if you were it should match frame 155
17:42 Zari so basically
17:42 Zari it goes like this
17:43 Zari chatter frame = X
