Question:

Got a Black for real cheap today, want to catch a perfect Tornadus.

Unfortunately the guy triggered it.

Does the synching through the E4 trick like in HG/SS still work?

You can RNG shininess, but not the IVs. Probably be better to just start a new game.

mzenken · Jul 28th, 2012, 4:55:40 PM

Well, apparently I (might be able to) blame RNG Reporter on this one. The seed I got when I hit C7C wasn't even the one that RNG Reporter said it would be. Tried another seed and Chatter patterns matched RNG Reporter's output.

Is there a way to do the IV's in general?

Not from the Elite Four. If you do it when you're releasing it, then yes.

OK. Which RNG does the rain affect? The IV's or the PID?

-James

The Agonist · Jul 28th, 2012, 5:59:09 PM

Just the PID (advances it by around 550 frames, assuming there isn't any prior weather).

I don't know if this question is legal, if it isn't please delete and PM me the answer:

But I save restored a file to another cartridge, I'm using the same DS.

Would the Timer0's be the same or different?

LMK.

It will be either the same or similar, you might get a different value more frequently. Probably a good idea to re-check your parameters a couple of times to be safe.

at what point are the ivs/nature determined for lati@s in bw2? is it when you first see them in the dream yard? or when the battle starts?

The Agonist · Jul 28th, 2012, 10:20:27 PM

There is a certain step you have to take to trigger the battle, that's when the IVs and stuff are presumably set.

Is it before the battle or is it when you enter the Dreamyard and the Lati@s flies all over the place? I was wondering myself.

1 step before battle.

Nightmare · Jul 28th, 2012, 11:15:01 PM

Tornadus question:

Is he generated the step you leave the house, or is he generated before you go in or after you leave the house?

I don't want to screw this up.

It's generated after you leave the house, at the end of the cutscene when it flies away. The steps you take during the cutscene won't advance the IV frame.

UGH, I forgot to drag the Chatot into Tornadus's room.

Do the IV's stay the same as the first time when you kill it and go through the E4, or are they random?

The IVs change every time you respawn it.

It might be really tedious depending on what your target frame is, but you could advance the PID frame by saving, I don't think there are any moving NPCs in the room.

Nightmare · Jul 29th, 2012, 12:26:18 AM

Alder's room has no NPC's and you're not thrown into it when you get inside: It's very similar to Lance's room actually.

If I could do it there like I did the roaming Lati@s in HG/SS it'd be really cool. If I can't, I'll just have to factory reset/save restore the game since the Timer0 carries over.

In the room on Route 7, I meant.

There's no practical way to RNG it at Alder, the IV frame advances at ~120 frames/second.

Ugh, reset the game it is.

Thanks.

Nightmare · Jul 29th, 2012, 1:08:49 AM

Sorry to be a pain, but Tornadus's starting IV frame is 1, correct?

(wish there was a little more of a technical document having these things, be nice if it was in the RNG Reporter)

-James

Hozu · Jul 29th, 2012, 1:09:57 AM

Yes starting frame of 1. Remember that roamer IV method MUST be selected.

Like Hozu said, make sure you choose the Roamer method, otherwise you'll get fucked up IVs.

Nightmare · Jul 29th, 2012, 1:44:03 AM

Got one. Adamant with all 31's. Not terrible for having like no control over the nature.

Thank you for putting up with me tonight.
