Hmm, the only page I've ever had with "Lured Pokémon with a sweet aroma" was also on the same page as "MAGIKARP was caught (LATE NIGHT)."
So it counted as 2 advances anyhow :/

Okay, when you vs. seeker some trainers, they start looking around like crazy.
They aren't MOVING per se, but are they advancing the frame in this state?
I just ask because they stay this way after SR'ing and turning the game off.

This happened with having a TM on the same page as caught X pokemon, and it was still 2.

You are supposed to battle the trainers after using VS Seeker, and after that, they should stop moving.

Ok I'm losing my mind now >:o

Of course it's no fault of those here but I can't grasp this at all.

Wichu suggested to me getting a seed with a seconds time timed from setting the time on the DS clock and then switching off - back on and into the game. I timed it and got 28 seconds which musn't work and I DON'T KNOW! :(

So I need it step by step (normal way). This is what I have so far:
- Get the time
- Take your seconds time off (in my case 15)
- Set your DS clock to a minute before this time
- Reset at the time
- Mash A to get to the continue screen at the target time
- Do journal flips (if applicable)
- Quickly collect the egg
- Do coin flips to check you've hit the right delay/catch a pokemon and use the initial seed finder
- If not, repeat
- If yes, done

^Is that right? Where am I going wrong? agh :(

I know I must be a pain to you guys... sorry

Uh, so what is actually happening?

Something is obviously going wrong at some step. Which step?
 
I was hoping that was what you were going to tell me.

EDIT: Is those definitely the right steps?
 
Bah! Haha I knew I was doing something wrong. Thanks!
I'll try more after I get some of these painting commissions done. :)

Close enough, but they are way to vague for me to tell you if you are actually doing the right things. There is a very good reason the OP is so long...
 
But if I get the timing right and the delay right I will DEFINITELY get the correct pokemon?

And I have read the full opening page, I'm just trying to vaguely summarise it into short steps

EDIT: Sorry yes and do the journal flips

These seem a little off.

1. Get the target time you need. Let's say 12:55:40
2. Remove the whole seconds part of it, then subtract a minute. 12:54:00
3. Sync your DS to that time (12:54) at the 00 mark on your external clock.
4. Load the game, and you will want to soft reset 15 seconds (in your case) before your target time. So, 12:55:25
5. Mash A to get THROUGH the continue screen at the target time.
 
So you should be in the game as you reach the target time or pressed A on the continue screen at the target time?

Thanks for helping though Mingot and yawg
 
I'm a bit confused right now, I need to hit frame 877. So I need to advance the RNG by 876, if it had 1 as starting frame, right?
So Zapdos needs to be advance by 881, right? Or is it that I have to substract those 5 frames? I don't get it anymore.

EDIT: Wait, Zapdos is standard at 6, so I need to put in an extra 871 amirite? Then when I walk 128 steps with 5 pokermon, I need only 866, so 433 journal flips?

It is the moment you press continue.
But there usually isn't much if any amount of time where you sit on the screen, so you are pressing through it really.
So that's just how I described it, sorry. :3

Unless of course you are trying to hit a high delay, then you may spend a few seconds there.
I may try and figure out emloop today ...

My good Azelf (30/17/30/31/31/31 HP Ice 68) is from the future (01/01/2063) and it sort of bothers me.

you actually need to advance it by 871. Take your target frame (877), subtract the starting frame for the pokemon (6, in Zapdos's case) and subtract the current number of runners you have (I'm going to assume 0) to get the number of necessary advances (877-6-0=871).
 
That's what I thought of (again) a minute ago, but then I hit 875 in the end so, yeah. (But my delay was quite strange too then I must say). I hope I'll nail it this time.

EDIT: Thanks, it finally worked. (Well, only second tme but my delay was being gay again)

Press A.

I'd really give the directions in the OP a read, and then another read as you try to go through them. You are really going to have to know how/what you failed at before we can tell you the problem :/

The directions to tell you how to decide on a target time that is easy to hit by resetting at :00 (seconds), so that is what you are going to want to do. Additionally, they tell you how to determine if you hit or did not hit your time and delay, and if not what time/delay you DID hit.
 
Erm, first post/question, and probably a stupid one at that X_X

I've seen some videos on youtube of people using RNG to encounter a shiny legend, but all of them were in spanish :\. I've read through the first post, and there was some stuff about journal flipping (which all the videos are filled with), but it's all just about how to get a perfect IV spread, no mention of shinies..

so; how2shiny?

Same procedures. You need to find what frames yield shiny pokemon and aim for those.
 
@An00bis: If you JUST care about them being shiny, and not about stats, the first method in the OP is really easy. Do that.

@colts8729: To get shiny pokémon, yes.
The hatching perfect pokémon section doesn't mention it, but I'd imagine it is the same as making shiny eggs and capturing perfect pokés.
 
just wondering, during the 1st calibration phrase, i have done about 20 test to get my seconds and delay and while my delay seems fine (range of 595-605) i get a time of 23 secs consistently. Is it fine that its that high? (im assuming no since it take on avg 15 sec to get ingame) and if its not right what could i have done wrong

Well, 23 seconds seems high BUT as long as you can do that consistently just go ahead and go with it and you'll do just fine.
 
k, I posted in a few hours ago in the RNG Reporter thread, but I will post here too.

I think I figured it out, it's the encounter slots. The levels are attached to it, am I right?

Can I inquire something though? In Trophy Garden, there are two slots open at Level 16 and 18. Let's say for example, I have Plusle as Garden Pokemon from yesterday and Minun as Pokemon from today. Who will be in what slot?

On the front page a couple posts down is a post by mingot that involves encounter slots. Next to two of them will say (today trophy garden) and (previous pokemon) or something along those lines. Yes the levels are dependent on the slot. On one of the encounter sites that was in the post before had the levels maybe? upokecenter or something, may have it. But best way to find out is catch pokemon at the level you want and find out what seed it was on and then what frame and thus encounter slot.
