Oh, odd. Thanks.

[The Agonist]

all of N's mons have a set nature and all 30 IVs, for future reference.

I want to RNG hidden grottoes later in my game, do I have to do something in special? for example I'm in the part where I have to catch minccino, should I catch it or not? does it matter?

You don't need to do anything special, just make sure all the hollows are full before you start RNGing them (even that isn't strictly necessary, it just makes the process easier).

Hi can anyone point me to the direction of a ID/SID abuse guide for BW2? Is it essentially the same as BW1? Thanks!

[Cipher Admin Lovrina]

How would I find my parameters for a game that I plan to ID abuse when I haven't even started the game yet?

Play the game far enough to catch a pokemon.

EDIT: Find the parameters, and then restart the game and ID abuse.

For BW2? Start a file and save at least once, then you can use the Unova Link method (see the OP) to find your parameters very quickly and easily. You can't find your parameters without starting the game at all.

Hold on, does the breeding bug basically mean that it is indeed impossible to do some RNG Breeding in the Japanese and International releases of BW2 as of now? Dangit, I skipped BW since I thought I can do all the RNGing here :/

[remedy1502]

I'm trying to create a profile for Black 2, and I'm doing everything the exact same to find my parameters as I did in White, but when I enter all the shit I don't get a seed.
Have sweet scent, caught the first poke without moving, checked IVs with pokecheck. Nothing comes up. Don't know why it's not working, but it isn't. Bit upsetting. So I'm not quite sure what to do to check my parameters now.

Meaning it should work, right?

Also, I'm using the newest RNG Reporter.

G:\Nintendo 3DS\(a bunch of numbers and letters that might not be something I should post)\(another bunch of numbers & letters)\title\00040000\000ae100

Based on the creation date (mostly the fact that it's the only folder created on the 7th, the same day I downloaded only it), I'm thinking that this is where PDR is stored. Does anyone know if I'm right? And if I am, would I be able to just backup/restore this folder, instead of the entire SD card? There isn't some hidden file in another directory that'd keep this from working, is there?

There's also a 512KB .sav file in a sub-directory under that one, so if I could get away with only copying that then that'd be even better.

[Purimpopoie]

Now, maybe I'm not reading it correctly, but for RNGing Dream Radar Pokemon, can I just Export the Research Data to B2W2 on 3DS and then move to DS Lite for the actual RNGing? I'm wondering, since if I can, I won't have to wait until the RNG Reporter can do 3DS stuff.

[kiddu]

You'd still have to wait until RNG Reporter can do Dream Radar seeds, which is supposedly coming out around the same time, anyway.

Is wondercard abuse the same for BW2?

I don't know, as I have an SD card that I use just for Dream Radar, so the size of the backups is not an issue. What don't you take a full backup of your SD card, copy that somewhere safe so you don't mess up your data and can restore it back to its original state, and then try the different things you suggested and see if it works? It would be useful for everyone here to know.

Yes, you can RNG on whatever device you like after you send the Pokemon from the Dream Radar. But it's not going to let you do it any faster because...

I was kind of hoping that one of the researchers here had already tried...but if not, then I guess I'll do just that.

EDIT: Yeah, that's where it's stored, alright. Copying only that folder over works just fine...

2: ...as does only copying the save. Therians are back to be resent and everything.

Again, the directory is

Nintendo 3DS\(a bunch of gibberish numbers and letters)\(another bunch of numbers & letters)\title\00040000\000ae100

and the save is under that on \data\00000001.sav

It'll always be impossible to RNG breed in BW2, yes.

Actually, I'd appreciate it if somebody else could verify that the directory stays consistent for different systems, since I only have the one to test with.

I am unable to find my parameters for my Black 2
Do I need to go somewhere w/o any NPCs?
If so, what is a good location

Are you using a DSi or 3DS? For now you can't find your parameters using either system on English carts.

For some reason my "profile" data for RNG Reporter 9.96 Alpha is saved in the wrong place, but I can't seem to find it. Can someone tell me what the file/folder name for the Profile is called so I can find it? (I'm using Windows Vista)
