Most Generation PRNG Help / Information

I'm using the shiny egg finder and it says I do 0 taps and 11 flips, does that mean I go to the Happiness Checker app and do nothing, then do my 11 flips, or do I not go to the Happiness Checker app at all?
 
Took 100 quick advancements (turns/steps) and got frame 178

So far I've got...

  1. Immidiately activate the dogs=F1
  2. Wait 30 seconds to activate the dogs=F1
  3. Wait 2 mins to activate the dogs=F1
  4. 10 Immediate Advancements=F13
  5. 100 Immediate Advancements=F178
  6. 267 Advancements=F508
Guess I'll try 150 and see how far that overshoots Frame 267...

Anybody here got any info on RNGing the dogs?
 
Timetwister, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to scroll all the way through back to the coin clip app. I've never done one that had 0 taps though. I'd try finding Minus One's post in this thread (search for all his posts, there shouldn't be too many), he may say something about it in the directions.

Steve, I think a single turn advances one, where as a "do nothing" or turn/step would advance two. Not 100% on those though. I just know that when doing wondercards if I needed an extra frame, allowing the NPC to make a single turn got me that one frame. Pretty much anything else messed it up though.

Ok so what you saying is if your frame is uneven ( whcih mine is ) and theres an NPC in the area ( which there is ) just let them turn once and that'll make it even? and hope they didnt do a "do nothing event"?
 
Yeah, usually you will want the turn to be fairly immediate, because otherwise it is likely that they've had a "do nothing" advancement and you'll be out of luck. I usually experiment with different save points until I find one where the NPC makes a turn within a second or so of closing the journal/entering the game or whatever. It doesn't take too long to do really, the only thing is that sometimes the NPC will move different ways depending on what delay you actually hit, so you kind of have to hope he has the same type of movement for your target seed. Another good way of doing it is simply releasing a runner, in which case you won't have to worry about it at all, and you can KO the runner later (if this is platinum of course) to get rid of it.
 
150 quick advancements got me Frame 274. I'm shooting for frame 267, so that's pretty close. I'm gonna try 148 quick advancements and see if that gets me to 267ish. I'm gonna cry if it's 1 below or above. :(

Just as SRing goes, I actually have a pretty good one! xD

Not good enough though. >:P
 
Well, like I said, you can either find a new spread with an odd frame, or do it over until you're able to find a save point that gives you an even frame. I know it can be a pain to do, but sometimes when you have less than ideal parents it's the only way to get the IVs you want. Really your parents should be fine how they are and it should not be hard to locate a target with an odd frame that gives you your desired IVs, unless of course for some reason you're going for hex-flawless, which is much harder to locate with not so good parents.

Edit: mattj, I wish I could help you but I don't know anything about it...good luck though, and maybe if romsstar comes on later you could try asking him, because he seems to be pretty proficient with just about everything on HG/SS.
 
Your delay won't really be too much different since it's only 2011, but yeah moving the year up 2 will lower the delay 2. You still should be able to hit it though since two is a very very tiny difference.
 
Where do I find some information about rng-abuse on the manaphy ranger egg? I´m looking for information like what Frame does the egg have, how you can influence the nature etc.
 
there are only two spreads on the excel file that have both timid AND ice hp...... and both don't work. can someone just tell me how i can use those symbols to get a hp ice spread directly on rng reporter?

This is one I'm using in Heart Gold right now...

539578507F 2dc21a19 (TIMID, ability 1) 30/31/30/31/31/31 (Seed: 680e01f3 Frame: 270) HP ICE 70

It has a delay that perfectly suits HG/SS (490ish in 2009)

This is one I've used several times in DPPt...

TIMID 30 / 3 / 30 / 31 / 31 / 31 HP Ice 70, (Seed c0102be, 01:11:00, 2098-01-01=Delay-604, 2082-01-01=Delay 620, Method 1 Frame 7129, Method J Requires Syncher Frames 7120/7122/7124)

It has very high frames, but I've only missed it once out of 4 tries, and it's not really that hard to count to 3557. :P And it's Delay should fit either DP or Pt.

Just pick one and put the seed in the seed to time button and I think you can figure it out from there...

oh thanks man that seed works ^_^

EDIT: whats the actual?
 
it says frame 7120 and then it says the actual is 7129.
also, how do I find the delay?

Ignore where it says "actual" it doesn't matter.

Copy the seed, press the seed to time button, pick a year, then press generate. Fiddle with your year to tailor your delay to what you think you'll be most likely to hit. Also, make sure you're generating with the right method. If it's a roamer, use method 1 if it's a stationary, use method J.
