Are you using a cart or VBA?
If you are using a cart, I would reccomend trying to record the time from when you capture your pokemon until you turn your game off, this way you can find out your current frame (Use
Wichu's app to find your actual frame [Emerald Frame] and RNGreporter to find the method), the problem is, without a save state it is impossible to know what method you can get whether it be method 1 or 2, because it seems that as soon as you catch a pokemon, the method changes, so I would reccomend skipping the method part with mingot's program and just try to hit any random spread, and just hope you get lucky with the method.
If you are using VBA, I would start off by save stating while the cursor is on "Sweet Scent" and then catching a pokemon, checking to find the frame and the method and then loading the save state and then go from there to hit your spread.
Wilds are also a lot harder because you dont have Synchronize, so if you dont get the pokemon you want on the frame that you want, you cannot get it in that location.

Yeah, the only thing I would reccomend right now, is everytime you hit a method 3 spread, record all the info, just so we have something as a possible start off.

I agree with you on this, because until we can figure out the seeding, it seems like it would be nearly impossible, if not impossible to abuse in FR/LG at all. (Without save states)

Whatever you feel is best, I feel that it is pretty essential for research, until we can figure out the seeding.
