Could you please post which seed you are using.
The most likely cause is that NPCs are advancing the PIDRNG making you off.
There is a difference between the methods but if you selected the correct method you should be fine.

Hi, I'm thinking of getting a new White, and ID abusing. Might someone be able to walk me through finding a good seed to id abuse my game around?
No, there are more differences between the games than just parameters, so you'll have to use 9.96. For future reference, a link to the latest build is always available in #smogonwifi.
Unless you want a specific number or are going for a shiny roamer, there's not much point in 5th gen ID abuse. But if you want to do it, just search for a seed that has the IVs you want and put it into Pandora's Box when you search.
Ok, that sounds awesome! Secondly, I just lost my DS Lite... Is rnging on a DSI or a 3DS harder--how is it different if at all?
Is there any way you can post this outside of IRC? I personally loathe it and will never enter a chat room for certain reasons.

Its just the alpha version- which is not complete yet. When the Beta comes out it will be posted in the RNG thread like always Im sure, but you could put the link to it in your sig or something so you dont have to wade through the thread to find it later.
Please I need help, I'm new in Smogon and I followed the guide for Standard Abuse, I'm trying to capture a Flawless Virizion no shiny and I have done the method PIDRNG for a shiny one but then I retracted myself and only want a non shiny Flawless Virizion by the IV(Standard Seed) way but when I tried to do this, a I have got no seeds but I have alredy caprtured my Flawless Cobalion and Terrakion this way and I don't understand what I am doing Wrong. Please Help me.
Hey, so I want to id abuse around this seed that ReligiousJedi gave me... He found this seed for me on Black though, and not with any configs that I'll be working with... I have no idea what to do!

Hey guys; I'm new to the forums (long time smogon.com user) and I was hoping you could point me in the direction of a guide for beginners specifically BW shiny breeding. What I've seen on Smogon so far assumes I know much more than I currently do and as a result I have many unanswered questions.
This proves to be most helpful to me.
Also, is the touch screen at all needed for rnging?
No. Though some people prefer to use it to start their games.
Lastly, I know you have to click start a second earlier on a DS Lite and 8 seconds earlier on a 3DS, but what about a regular DS?
yes he right above 1 sec ahead for a ds and a dslite, it helps the screen load for a sec....the only one that different is the 3ds...sweet a rng thread...my help will be and others help for me will pay off :D
My bad, I just realized that I forgot to change the max frame from 8 to 1, so I'm guessing I actually had to advance the IV frame before trying to fish.
Timer0 C7F
VCount 60
VFrame 8
Ok, so I got those for my parameters... does that mean I input those into my configuration? And after that... I can start rnging again, right?
Timer0: C7E-C7F
VCount: 60-60
Edit: I tried it again and got a Timer0 of C80, VCount 60, VFrame 8... what do I officially fill in?
VCount 60

I'm assuming you're using White on a DS Lite based on those parameters. You'll probably hit C7F more often, but do your parameters a couple more times to be sure. Then I'd suggest using only the more common one for your parameters, because it's not worth the trouble of trying to use seeds for both. Once that's done, yeah, you can start RNGing again. Just make sure you also put in the correct MAC address and everything.
I'm using a dsphat and I put in the correct mac address...
Edit: Ok, I've gotten C7F, 60, and 8 like four times now... Should I not even bother looking for my other Timer0?
It's not worth the time. Just stick with C7F which is usually the more common Timer0 anyway.
Hi just wanted a quick bit of advice on Black White 2 rng. I'm using gamecart and dslite.
I'm sure i've rng'd my id/sid correctly but i'm struggling to locate initial pidrng. I have landed on the correct seed but it is nowhere near what it states it should be on rng reporter i'm using 9.96 alpha 12. Starting frame should be 60 but on sweet-scenting & catching pokemon i got the correct seed but was on starting frame 106?
My id/sid is 28106 03004 with seed 0529DCD829F0708E should be lonely (synchable) 30/31/30/31/31/31 hp ice on shiny on frame 66. So if i'm correct i'm never going to get my shiny frame.
I'm unsure if locations have been fully mapped but i caught a level 5 lillipup relaxed with 30/31/30/31/31/31 ability vital spirit (0) i had no relaxed synchable poke in front so i found a list on pokemondb and it appears to be location 45 which is only area with level 5 lillipup encounter slot 4 which all lines up with rng reporter
so has anyone with knowledge rng'd there id/sid on gamecart had similar problems?
if initial frames in black/white 2 are starting over frame 100+ then i need to re-do id/sid abuse as i'm never going to hit shiny pid frame 60
i know its early days in rng black/white 2 but anyones help would be great

Okay, so I'm trying to RNG abuse a perfect Wondercard Victini. I follow all the steps but don't get my desired IVs and nature. So I use the adjacent seed button and find the spread I hit but everything (the timer0, the date, the time) match except for the seed itself. So what do I change in order to get the desired seed?
