    May you tell me if in Emerald the acutual frame is in the 0x3005000, like FR/LG?

    Alright, thanks for the reply, but I just had one more question too. I understand that for someone who wanted to get Pokemon XD exclusive moves, there would need to be a lot of flashcarts etc. So what I gathered is this, you obtain the pokemon in a Emulator, and using a flashcart you transfer the save file over to pokemon Emerald, and then you can transfer that on up to gen IV-V. I tried looking on project pokemon for an article, but maybe I just couldn't find one. This is on the right track though, right?

    Are you one of the creators of Pokecheck? I'm DudeWynaut, moderator and creator of the r/Stunfisk community on reddit. You have a mod by the name of Hozu warning to mute at the drop of a hat on the pokecheck shoutbox.

    I asked, in the context of a recent scenario with a possible hacked Venusaur, what makes it possible for a hacked male Venusaur to pass down Chlorophyll. The general attitude on the shoutbox was negative and dismissive. I was warned with a mute, to which I replied "go ahead and mute me. You guys are not being helpful and you're being total pricks." Then I was muted.

    Serious business, amiright?

    Look man.. My point in seeking you out is to let you know that your mods are trigger-happy. Shutting off discussion of this because Hozu can is not the way to moderate a website. I was not breaking a rule. I'm more than content with excluding myself from the shoutbox and pokecheck, as well as not promoting your website on mine, if your mods have this persistent, negative attitude.

    Is it possible to host your own battle box tournment, like they do at Nintendo Events? And how would we go about doing that? Essentially so we could just host a swiss tourney with our little league we have going on here, thank you in advance

    Hi, I am using the latest version of the RNG reporter (9.96.5 BETA) and every time I search for my parameters I get no results. I am using a 3DS. Pokemon version is black 2. This is my first abuse and I don't know what's wrong. Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I'm having some troubles with the damage formula for BW. So, if you could clarify a few areas, that would be great ^^;

    a) For chaining modifiers, it says that when multiple triggers apply, you have to chain the modifier for the parameter, starting from 0x1000. The example given is: M' = ((M * M') + 0x800) >> 12 - Can this be generalized to find the results of chaining any amount of modifiers? Or is it recursive i.e. to find M'''' we would need to know M''' and M'' ?

    b) Also, can we go through an example to make sure I've understood it correctly?

    Here's the example:

    CB Terrakion Stone Edge vs. Nasty Plot Celebi

    BaseDamage = ((((2 * Level) / 5 + 2) * BasePower * [Sp]Atk) / [Sp]Def) / 50 + 2

    = ((((2 * 100) / 5 + 2) * 100 * Atk / 236) / 50 + 2

    = (42 * 100 * Atk / 236) / 50 + 2

    [Atk = 357 * 0x1800 / 0x1000 = 357 * 6144 / 4096 = 535.5 => 536]

    = (42 * 100 * 536 / 236) / 50 + 2

    = 192

    4. Alter with a random factor
    5. Apply STAB modifier

    Min = (192 * (100 - 15)) / 100 = 163.2 => 163
    Max = (192 * (100 - 0)) / 100 = 192

    163 * 0x1800 / 0x1000 = 244.5 => 245 (Smogon's Damage Calc would have given 244 as the minimum)
    192 * 0x1800 / 0x1000 = 288


    Thank you in advance. D:

    well that's a bummer because this PID advancement is making no sense, but I will just have to persist then.

    Thanks for the help Kaph :)

    not even if you stay in battle for the same amount of time each time and ensure your pokemon never faints (full restores or just grab Arceus)?

    I'm having trouble with Tornadus at the moment and no matter how long I stay in the rain I get the same PID frame. I stayed in the rain for ~22 seconds and hit frame 874, I tried again with ~20 seconds and hit the same frame. Thundurus is suppose to be harder but the PID advancements were far more consistent with him it seems.

    I had to step out for a bit earlier so I hope you don't mind me asking a few more questions here instead :) I was thinking of RNGing the roamer in gen 5 by using a method similar to HG/SS where you KO them and RNG them before you beat the champ to respawn them. You said the PID frame isn't affected by battles so that shouldn't be an issue there and since the Roamer is the only pokemon being generated encounter slots and the like won't matter either. So then I assume the reason this is such a bad idea is because the IV frame would be the RNG value advancing at 60*n per second? Sorry, I'm not really technical and there is a lot I don't know about the RNG mechanics, so I'm a bit confused is all :p

    So is this a viable idea that would make gen 5 roamer abuse a tad easier by making the PID more manageable by eliminating the weather, or is it a Sisyphean task?
