Don't you need to do both in order to ensure you count every advance and also hit the right seed?The most common noob mistake in HGSS abuse is to "count" the Elm calls rather than "match" them against the list generated by using Seed(Hex) and the correct method of your RNG project.
Thank you very much^^1- Yes it is 11
2-it does but i goes back to where it was before the battle at the end of it, so simpy don;t worry about that when your RNGing at the Elite Four.
3- Yes
No, not really. You just have to make sure you match. You should be keeping track by going down the list as you make each call until you land on the correct frame prior to your target frame.Don't you need to do both in order to ensure you count every advance and also hit the right seed?
That's what I did. It was on frame 11, so I only needed to do the 10 in order to confirm, then press A on Moltres.No, not really. You just have to make sure you match.

Damn only 11 frames for the Moltres, mine was in like the 400's, luckyThat's what I did. It was on frame 11, so I only needed to do the 10 in order to confirm, then press A on Moltres.
Then you need to do what Nexus said. Catch it, check it's IVs, see if it's on the list and where on the list. And if not on the list, use seed finder to see where you landed.That's what I did. It was on frame 11, so I only needed to do the 10 in order to confirm, then press A on Moltres.
Elm advances it by 1.In Soul Silver is there ANY way to advance my frame to 3 WITHOUT having to calling Youngster Joey (who I have NOT added to my phone book)?
Yeah, I wish I knew to add him to my phone book sooner Riski. I think you should've included that in your guide (when choosing a Target Frame). I chose a Target Frame of 3 rather than 1 (can't remember why). Alright, thanks for the information. I managed to land on my Target Seconds/Delay, but am stuck on Frame 1.Just go talk to him. The option to add him will return.
Call Elm or iriwin, they both advance the rng by 1In Soul Silver is there ANY way to advance my frame to 3 WITHOUT having to calling Youngster Joey (who I have NOT added to my phone book)?
It is in my guide. I actually recommend odd numbers because of Joey calls.Yeah, I wish I knew to add him to my phone book sooner Riski.

Edit: where is Youngster Joey anyway?
Yes it is, but later on when you talk about after the fact that you hit your Seconds/Delay lol. I'm using an odd frame just as you suggested.It is in my guide. I actually recommend odd numbers because of Joey calls.
Yes, you can use a random shiny hatch to calculate a SID. Edit: Scratch that. Wrong answer (see posts below).Question: I have a Shiny Gible but I got it from hatching. Does that mean I cannot calculate my SID by using this shiny Gible? Oh wait... I have a Shiny Gyarados (from lake of rage)... will that work?
Ok but just clarify this for me... why do people say its not possible to calculate your SID with a Shiny Pokemon that was obtained from breeding?Yes, you can use a random shiny hatch to calculate a SID.
It says non-bred on Smogon's official guide.Smogon said:A non-bred / non-chained shiny Pokemon that was caught in the game where you wish to determine the Secret ID. Pokemon caught while chaining, but from non-shiny patches are considered to be non-chained.
It doesn't mention a bred shiny either. So perhaps it has something to do with the PID of bred vs caught shinies. Anyhow, thanks for pointing this out to me.Your SID, or Secret ID, is not visible by normal means, but can be easily retrieved if you have a caught (non-chained) shiny and then by doing a bit of math or using the "IVs to PID" feature in RNG Reporter. Additionally, you can deduce your SID if you have between four and eight chained shinies by using the "Chain to SID" feature of RNG Reporter.
Differences in rng HGSS then DpptCan someone tell me what the difference between Platinum catching pokemon and HeartGold catching pokemon RNG is? I have just learned Platinum but the pokes I need are only in HeartGold so I was thinking if someone could tell me. I tried reading the pages there but I didn't really get it.
And it seems like people say that Shiny Gyarados does not work either.Well, that's news to me. I only found this in the guide:
