5th Gen PRNG Help / Info - RNG Reporter 9.96.5, PPRNG 1.15.0 (Request in first post)

Just droppin this back in here, since I don't think theres a guide that explains this.

5. Hit the seed, leave house and mash A and left to get the egg.
6. Hatch egg.
7. Take note of ability, gender and IV's.
8. If possible, find in main window, otherwise repeat a few more times to get consistent results, then advance PID by 1 to narrow results.
9. Find out how far to advance to your correct PID.
10. Hit seed once more, advance PID in house, then collect egg.

Does this sound right??

The RNG Reporter does not seem to have a generate button in the time finder...

So how do I generate...?

Uhh, yes it does?

Thank you masters! ^_^

The act of sweet scenting does not advance the frame, and neither does using a repel. However, every step you take in an area where wild pokémon encounters are possible, the PID frame will advance by 2.

I wish it did.

MAC address is also grayed out and it won't let me enter anything...


EDIT: Do I have to generate in the search option under capture instead of under 5th gen parameters...? I'm trying to follow bearsfan's video and the RNG Reporter does not resemble his...

OK, I think I get it now.

So I fill in the parameters, then go to the search tab, put method 5 (standard), enter my month and whatnot, and THEN click search? And then it takes a few minutes to go through and tell me of the results?

[Musica]

Will Method5 PIDRNG be able to predict Natures for C-Gear seeds?

DS MAC Address: 001BEA936414
GxStat: 6
Soft Reset: (unticked)
VCount: 60
VFrame: 6
Timer0 Min: C7E
Timer0 Max: C7E
Actual Seconds: 26
Seconds I inputted in parameters: 25
Version: White Version (English) [I have a legit cartridge or original cart]
DS Type: DS Lite

Target Frame: 6

I am loading the game from the DS menu a second before the actual target time. No keypresses. And I am saved inside Pinwheel forest. Have used repel before I even saved my game. I have 5 pokes in party. I'm gonna run back and forth outside patch of grass until the repel's 100 steps are gone. Then I will walk again counting to 28 steps (turning is not included in the count). After 128 steps, I will walk in the patch of grass then use "Sweet Scent". Will catch the pokemon then check IV. Not the IV spreads I was expecting for... :(

Did I do something wrong here? I can't tell...

EDIT: Used Method 5 (Standard Seed) btw...

[dragonboy52]

When I hold Down I get Timer0 as C7F but when I hold down R I get Timer0 as C7E, Why is this?

it can be that the 129th step is the one wich advances your frame again. try to enter in the grass with the 128th step.

i tried that too.. still wrong IV spread. I'm currently re-calibrating my DS. I've read about something with the Timer0 fluctuating or something. So I'm inputting new parameters of the newer pokemon i've caught. my timer0 changed from C7E to C7F. Then tried to hit the seed again.. Given me another failed IV spread, I will once again input the parameters of this new pokemon into my DS parameters and see if the timer0 will change. I wish this method would work out for me.

If anyone out there knows the solution, please help me :(

PLEASE NOTE: There was a bug in the latest beta which caused ALL standard seed IVs generated by Time Finder to be incorrect, not just some. The link on the front page has been updated to beta 6.2, please redownload RNG Reporter.

Your timing or timer0 might be slightly off. Right-click your target seed in the Time Finder and click Generate Adjacent Seeds (Current Frame). If you were off by one of those, you should see it in the adjacents list.

[Krul]

OmegaDonut: Just checking with you, since you would know the most about this. Is my breeding summary right?

1. Find a good spread on frame 8 in Time Finder, selecting Gift Pokemon.
2. Deposit parents.
3. Run around outside until an egg is generated.
4. Save inside the house.
5. Hit the seed, leave house and mash A and left to get the egg.
6. Hatch egg.
7. Take note of ability, gender and IV's.
8. If possible, find in main window, otherwise repeat a few more times to get consistent results, then advance PID by 1 to narrow results.
9. Find out how far to advance to your correct PID.
10. Hit seed once more, advance PID in house, then collect egg.

Anyone? Or is it easier to abuse Venipede in Pinwheel Forest? If so I'l just do that

Sometimes you can miss your seed, and your timer0 tends to fluctuate somewhat, mine is usually C7C, but if I want to hit that I have to be spot on, I have to start the game at the very same time that second hand reaches your target second. It takes a little practice, and even though there's no delay to hit, you still need to be pretty darn accurate when you load the game. I turn the volume up on my DS so I can hear the ticking of the second hand, I find it a lot easier to keep in time with a tick than from just watching the second hand.

Ok, so, I'm apparently having issues trying to RNG for shiny starters. I'm still in the calibration phase.

I found a seed with the IVs i want (8DE84915024FAF3E), and typed it in Reasearcher, however i couldn't find my ID (28490) in the generated list. I'm sure i hit my seed correctly every time, because i tested b4hand and never got it wrong. In six different new games I've started, i got the same ID (28490) 5 times, and another one (06019) once. Neither were in Researcher's generated results. What could I have been doing wrong?

EDIT: Found it after i downloaded version 6.2

Did you used the newest RNG Reporter and seleced the right encounter type? I can't see anything that you have done wrong.

[Marion]

Thank you Elranoc and OmegaDonut... I've successfully RNG abused a Durant. I downloaded the newest beta of RNG Reporter and re-calibrated my DS. And I got my real timer0 in it which is C7E.

I now have a Durant with a careful nature and IVs of 31/31/31/28/31/31. :)

[Aviator99]

when the time finder tells you to hold a button, how long should you hold it for? and when it says "L" that means the "L" trigger, and not Left on the D pad right?

Between the moment you start the game from the DS menu until you reach the copyright screen, although I usually hold it until I see the gamefreak logo. L is the L trigger, Left is for left on the D pad.
