Well its hard for me to phrase this question since my English grammar sucks but I'll try my best. Short version is; I don't get delays.
To make it more informative it's more like, I don't know what I should do with the delay part. I know how to calibrate like taking note of which delay you got and seconds and such. But when it comes to actually beginning to reset for ivs and whatnot I don't get how I should use the delays I got from the calibration phase.
Since most of the delays I usually got is a lot of different ones and apart of each-others, I don't get how I'm suppose to accurately hit the delay I need for a certain spread. I also don't get what I should choose as average delay when I should look for a certain spread.
It would be nice if someone could shed a little light upon this, if not, I will continue SRing for ivs the normal way. It doesn't matter to me anyway ^^;
Well since I suggested it, I may as well and try to help :D.
It's hard to explain what delays are really, they're the time taken to get into a game.
If you're on Platinum, if you mash your A button as fast as you can, you should get a delay of 590-610.
Normally. I get a delay of 598,600,602,604. Choose the delays you’ll hit most. (for some reason, my delay is even in 2009 and 2010). Most people’s delay in 2010 should be odd on Platinum so you’re delay should be 597,599,601,603 because as you increase your year by 1, you’re delay goes down by 1.
Now, to get my “average” delay, I synched my clock with an eternal one, SR at 60 seconds and caught pokemon ,checked Iv sect.
If you after that information in the RNG reporter Seed Finder, it should give you a second value and delays value. The second value is basically just what second you hit in that minute when you entered the game, most people’s is 14/15 because they SR at 60 so it takes 14-15 seconds to enter the game. More info on the OP.
When breeding, you use this “delay” info with 14/15 – normally anyway.
You’re average delay could be (for the sake of argument) 598 which appears most often. So I use DPPt Time Finder select the year/date/time with seconds as 14 and a range of your delay. For me, I put 598-604 because I know eventually I’ll hit one of those delays.
So say your target time is 22:06:14 with a delay of 598. You would SR at 22:06:00 hoping you enter the game at 22:06:14 with a delay of 598. You can check your delay with 10 coin flips after you enter the game. Your delay changes around a bit depending on what you normally get, but eventually after several goes you should get your delay. This is what you are aiming for. To get the egg process ect. Read on.
You also have a target frame, this is the frame you will hit when you collect the egg.
To find the frame you are on at the moment, you just synch your time with an external clock, say 12:00. SR at 12:01 so you enter the game at 12:01:14. You collect the egg as fast as you can - remember to have journal up before you enter the game, so just change to 2 days after you saved.
After you collect egg, catch a poke to check delay to find your seed.
Then change the settings to "Breeding DPPT" and click generate.
Hatch egg, check Ivs, and see what frame you are on from the generated seed.
EDIT: I think I went a little offtopic but oh well.
