My friend is having that same issue with underwater RNG, and unfortunately I can only assume RNG Reporter is going off of wrong information.

That's in Gen 5. In Gen 5, it advances the PIDRNG, so it's not like you can change IVs anyway.

For starters, I've found that constant recalibration messes you up more than it helps. I just keep mine at 597 all the time.

The random swapping just happens; it's kinda like the Alternate...

Not quite.

If you want to abuse for shininess, then yes, you will have to know your SID.
If you only want to abuse for IVs, then you can just go ahead right now.

No no, if it weren't reliable, many people would still do it.

There's no way at all without save shenanigans or hax.

That depends on what you call decent.
Say you mean all IVs are 16+.

1/25 chance of Adamant * (1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2) chance of 16+ IVs = 1/1600 chance, and those IVs aren't even...

I'm no expert a theoretical expert in FrLg, but I believe the frames start counting after you hit "Continue". Also, there's a 1-frame window to skip the journal entirely, so that could help.

Through testing, I've found that if you want medium-sized character and rival names, the lowest delay you can hit is ~5500, and that's if you're fast.

Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, and LeafGreen all use Method H-2 and H-4 for wilds.
FrLg might use Method H-1 for legendaries, I just can't remember.

Actually, you can't RNG it predictably.
Its PID is based on your save file's checksum. What's more, you can get a Jirachi as soon as you start a new game, repeatedly.

That is a fantastic frame to have, TID abuse or not.

Just to be clear, you actually know what your real SID is? If you left it at 0, it won't actually be Shiny.

You're supposed to abuse for a shiny Method 1 spread, which will then also show up in Method J.
