The fact that it seems consistent implies that it's starting at 11:54 is the thing to do, but the time that ZomgTimer runs for in total (from the time you start it and set your DSi clock to the time you say Yes for the C-Gear activation) is two minutes and 50 seconds. This would imply that starting at 11:53 is correct. PPRNG and RNG Reporter output the same times for these seeds, so I don't think I've implemented it incorrectly.

Obviously my understanding C-Gear stuff is lacking.
Don't worry about it. It seems to be working fine otherwise. My last two calibration attempts yielded a pair of Durants with exactly the same IVs, Ability and Nature:


Durant - #632 (Quirky) : 25 / 23 / 22 / 11 / 2 / 18


It also had exactly the same seed and delay (0BFD8D2C and 7576). This is because I deliberately didn't adjust the calibration between these two attempts, to see if I could hit a specific seed consistently. Looks like I'm finally on my way.


EDIT: Well, this is interesting. I changed the target seconds in ZomgTimer from 49 to 50 now that I'm more confident in my ability to nail the seed, and it showed up in the Inspector as 11:56. When I tried adjusting the clock to 11:53 as it's supposed to be, instead of 11:54 which has worked for me up 'till now, I was back in 11:55:50 again, with a difference of 3 between the delay I got (7566) and the target delay of 7569.

It appears that ZomgTimer doesn't like being lied to.


EDIT 2: Well, I did it at last. After nearly three hours of misfires, I finally found the right calibration and caught a Durant with the following spread and nature:


Durant - #632 (Quirky) : 31 / 13 - 15 / 30 - 31 / 30 - 31 / 30 - 31 / 31


Abiliy: Hustle


Now I can get that Frillish I've been looking for.

Thank you for all your help, son. PPRNG's working pretty darn well. You can have this Durant if you want it.
