Hi. I've been reading about the Emerald RNG Mechanics since last weekend. The main reason I wanted to learn it is to get a Latios, my favorite Pokemon, with some good IV spreads. Now it's time to put my "knowledge" to the test!
I'm going to do the following procedures on my Emerald cartridge, but I'm worried that I may be doing something wrong, so please correct me before I start.
Preparations:
-Found a frame for the Latios I want. It's 5394, to be exact. On this frame, Latios will have perfect Speed IV's as well as a decent amount of Special Attack IV's.
-Traded over a spare Latios I got from my Ruby version so that I can locate the Latios in Emerald much more easily.
-Patience, lots of it!
What I plan on doing:
1. Beat E4
2. Plug in the frame for the Emloop Timer so that I can know when to talk to the TV
3. After credits, soft reset the GBA while simultaneously starting the Emloop timer
4. Go downstairs of my "house", and select the answer "Blue" when talking to the TV the moment the Emloop timer hits 0
5. Hunt for Latios
6. When I catch it, if it doesn't have the requirements I wanted, record the "deviation time" / frame from the target frame, and after about 10 tries of repeating through steps 2 to 5, find average amount of time / frame deviation and set that amount into Emloop timer
7. ???
8. Success
Please tell me if I'm missing anything or doing anything wrong! My awesome Latios awaits me!
