IVs to PID applet
- Thread starter X-Act
- Start date
Apologies. We just didn't credit anyone (not even ourselves) because the app was coded mainly for our own use. I will upload a new one with some credits.
Thanks. Didn't see that. I was dumb.
I entered in the IVs of the Starly I bred, and I got no possibilities. So the applet doesn't apply to Pokemon that have been bred?

Starly OT Nicknamable31 / 31 / 21 / 4 / 5 / 31
Correct. If you bred that Starly, it should be legitimate.Thanks. Didn't see that. I was dumb.

finding out a if a baby's parent is hacked is a lie. If anyone tells you this, they are BSing big time. I'm guess if someone will get your game, get the .pkm file of that Pokemon out, look under it real close under a hex editor, then yea, they will find it, but would people really care? I think not.
when eggs hatch, new trash bytes writes over the egg, which has the trash bytes from when it was an egg, but it is still messed up cause of IV inheritance.

Because you can't prove yours legit and you can't prove hacker x's is a hack.
Basically boils down to having to build trust with those you trade with more than ever, which is a bit :S
ah ok, thanks for the the reply ^^ too bad the world is so unethical nowadays, even in things like Pokemon, which is merely a kid game xD
no AR ftw! ^^
Flash Card can deal with D/P made stuff, they don't have trash bytes so they are boned.
And to go REALLY farfeched, someone can say, use the PID calculator, go on "Ancient" Pokemonmaker, punch in the PIDs and the loooong ass code into the GBA AR and pal park it. That Pokemon would have valid trash bytes.
The ONLY thing that is still "safe" is XD Pokemon, they use a different formula of randomization then the GBA
Yes it would, no problem.
I've implemented the algorithm for chained shinies PID, basically following the one that tsanth posted in his website. I actually made it slightly more efficient by generating the PID in 'reverse', so to speak, instead of reversing to the start and then moving forwards again to create it. That way I used 17 less RNG calls for every IV match. Yeah, I know, it isn't much, but it's still more efficient.
Interestingly, chained shinies can have two different random seeds that generate the same exact IVs and PID.

Is this supposed to work with event pokemon? The reason I ask is that my JAA Celebi I personally got directly from the event (and have confirmed IVs multiple times, etc.) is coming up as "no possibilities." I know there is no way that the celebi is, or could possibly be hacked, but it is showing it as if it was.
For reference, the celebi's IVs are: 21 / 17 / 26 / 28 / 31 / 8 with a relaxed nature.
edit: It is doing the same thing with my gamestop deoxys

I'm confused, the way you wrote the last article about PID and IV generation, it seemed that nature and IVs are not produced via the same number.
This applet creates 1 32 bit number, so that is not directly related to IV creation?
The numbers produced by the RNG for the next 2-3 calls are the numbers that create the IVs right?

No, it would probably not work with event Pokemon. They are created using different methods.
Nature is found from the PID. I find the PID of the Pokemon that generates those IVs and that produces the nature required. So yeah, they are related in that they result from consecutive calls of the RNG having a particular seed.
That doesn't make much sense. The reason why GCN Pokemon aren't included in this article/applet is because few (if any) people understand the differences between the GBA/DS RNG and the GCN RNG. Until that happens, nobody can tell if a GCN Pokemon is hacked or not, merely by looking at the PID.
Sorry for the bump...
I need some help please. I caught a shiny Regigigas on Platinum the other day. I entered its IVs and Nature. But the applet came up with two Method 1s. What do I do? I tried both, but on the first one, it started with like 3 000s so they wouldnt paste into Calculator and on the 2nd, my Trainer ID in binary had 19 digits. Any know what I do?

What do you want to do exactly?
-_- Ok, I got that part wrong, but now I have a different problem. I did everything correctly and my binary result start with 0. Maybe there's something I forgot? A 0 won't paste into binary on Window Calculator.
