Less likely but still might throw this out:
Your MAC Address is wrong
You aren't playing on an English version of Black 2 on a 3DS

To give you an idea what you should be looking for on English Black 2 on a 3DS you should see results of
actual seconds = seconds + 8, VCount = ad, Timer0 = 168a, GxStat = 6, VFrame = 8

I believe it could be my starting time but let me point out the fact that I see no results when I hit search. I only have the seed encryption values which are automatically filled out. Plus, I calculated IVs using the Iv calculator on the RNG Reporter. Would starting the game the moment the clock reaches the next minute be the best option for me?

Finally got my parameters :)
I got the same results except for the timer0, for which I got 167C.

I am trying to RNG a flawless cresselia on my Black 2 and just wanted to make sure if what I am doing is right. My target frame is 6. This means I have to walk 128 steps with 5 pokemon in my party to advance the frame from 1 to 6. When I found my parameters I got 8 for the actual seconds. Does this mean I have to start the game 8 seconds earlier or later than my target time? This is the seed I got from Time Finder.

No keypresses.
Timer0 is 167C
Date/Time is 12/03/2012 17:29:39

Thanks in advance.

Are there any WNPCs on Route 22 in Black 2? I'm rnging Terrakion.

[The Agonist]

Yes, there is one, a female hiker.

I remember now that I did that too, but I didn't realize it was the reason Reporter unglitched. I was clicking and unclicking multiple settings at the time to see if anything would change the disappearing progress bar.

Trying to breed a dream world nidoran♂ on Pokemon Black, in Time Finder my target frame is 82 but in the RNG Reporter window, my target frame is 83 apparently? Which frame am I supposed to hit?

[Cipher Admin Lovrina]

Is it possible to rng BW2 on the 3DS yet?

In the main page, you forgot to check the Nidoran / Volbeat box. You need to hit frame 82

Gotcha, and since I'm breeding Nidorans, should I pay more attention to the Species column or the Gender percentage column? I checked the Nidoran box and the percentage boxes are all male, but the species box says Nidoran-F\Volbeat

So I can just calibrate off my Unova link on the new DS? Also, what is the second difference again? Say the game tells me to start at 03:23:18. On the DS-phat I would've clicked it on the 17 second mark. When would I click for the 3DS? Lastly, where can I find an entralink abuse guide for BW2?

the species column.

You mean to use the Unova Link method to find your parameters? I believe that method's still broken for the RNG reporter, you would have to use the PPRN. For a 3DS the delay is 8 seconds. 03:23:10.
I don't think there's one yet

When I searched for parameters a second time I got the exact result except for the timer0. My first search generated a timer0 of 167C and 1685 for the second one. What does this mean and which one should I use when RNGing?

IN BW2, the amount of timer0s you can hit is well >10. That means you should calibrate until you know for sure which of them you hit more often.

Do the NPC's at marvelous bridge affect the frame advancements? Is the PIDRNG frame the same as the one you use for Standard IV method?

[fabv]

How do I rng for dream pokes in the entralink (for black2)?

I don't have my game with me right now, but there's an easy way to tell if they advance the PID. Stand in the area where the NPC is, if it doesn't move at all or if you can always predict how it is going to move(take a step or turn) then that NPC won't advance the PID. On the other hand, if the NPC is always taking erratic movements, you just can't tell how it is going to move, then that NPC is going to advance the PID. Keep in mind that Wandeing NPCs will still advance the PID in the area even if you can't see them, so don't think that only because they're off the screen they won't mess up with you.


The PID frame is NOT the same as the IV frame. The IV frame only controls the IVs of the Pokemon while the PID controls everything else.

I want to RNG cresselia on marvelous bridge and hit the highlighted seed, I have tried several times with no results.

[RedSpyda]

Question

I want to extralink in white 2 and I already have my parameters.

According to page 1 there are no longer any c gear seeds. ( I presume i just use standard seeds instead.)

Do i just hit my seed in game, fire up the c gear and enter extralink then catch my poke?

Keeping in mind that Entralink IVs start on frame 26, and that the C-Gear still continuously advances the PIDRNG, yes.

[RedSpyda]

can I use a syncer for nature?

[kiddu]

No.

I am trying to catch a flawless cresselia in pokemon black 2 on a 3DS. Here is my target seed:
B0A60236A46C0D64
Frame: 1
Date/time: 11/23/12 22:41:02
No keypresses.

I am using the latest version of RNG Reporter. I hard reset the game 8 seconds earlier and got the following Iv range 2 times in a row: 27/29/28-29/0-1/21-22/0. What does this indicate and what could I be doing that doesn't allow me to get the flawless cresselia?
Timer0 is 1688
Also using a bashful synchroniser.

Out of curiousity, who said that the starting IV frame for Dntralink Polemon is 26?

...

---

RNG Reporter has updated to .NET Framework 4.5 (download here) allowing searches to be significantly faster. This does mean that Windows XP is no longer supported. I'll make a final XP compatible version after everything has settled down.

• Certain Languages are nto supported on DSi, if you want to help us out look here.
• Dream radar is currently not supported in Reporter
• CGear seeds no longer exist, turning on the CGear advances the IVRNG by 2 frames and advances the PIDRNG like usual
• Entralink starts on frame 26
• Memory linking offsets the PIDRNG initial frame by 1 so check the box for it in your profile if you have memory linked.
• Timer0 ranges are much wider. Some people have 12-15 different Timer0s. Tip: Using Eon Timer to hit your seed greatly increases your consistency for hitting a specific Timer0.
• Breeding is a total mess, don't even try to breed in BW2 for now. It might never be possible to do much of any breeding. Be happy there's no new egg moves I know of.
• Shiny Charm support will be added at a later date due to the vast amount of work to implement it.
