Useful info for those wanting to advance the RNG in HGSS by tweaking the radio.
These are the info I have on shows so far. To advance frames with the radio, start from the middle (no shows running), then click the button for the appropriate corner. You have then have to drag the cursor back to the middle without touching any other stations.
Code:
Show Advances Location
Pokemon Music 1 frame (Sunday only, otherwise none) Upper-left
Pokemon Talk 14-18 frames, inconsistent Upper-right
That Town, These People 3 frames Lower-left
Buena's Password none Lower-right
Trainer Profiles 3 frames Lower-left
Pokemon Search Party 1 frame Lower-right
Silver Drama 1 frame Lower-rightThese are the info I have on shows so far. To advance frames with the radio, start from the middle (no shows running), then click the button for the appropriate corner. You have then have to drag the cursor back to the middle without touching any other stations.
Question, for my Raikou spread, I have all of those stations but buena's password. Can I just switch between them or do I have to detune every time to advance the RNG?
Well, lemme put it this way: Is it still possible to RNG a shiny Raikou before Lance?
Just switch between them.
If you've released it from the burnt tower already, then no. Once you release them, they're set unless you faint them and respawn them after the E4.
That's what I mean. RNGing Raikou before taking on Lance.
Yes you can RNG raikou before taking on Lance, it is possible but difficult
I always enjoy a challenge. That, and my Arceus can sweep Lance's team like dust bunnies. I just gotta know the set frames (talking to Lance, Raikou itself, etc.).
Will I need five Poke'mon or can I RNG with six?
Can someone help me I just dont get this Caliberation Phase thing I mean I always get Diffrent Delays and Seconds. Like for Seconds I get from 2 to like 54 how do you guys get like 15 a constant number and for Delay i think its all right because i get like 590 to 650 just want to know how to get constant numbers and does it affect my Sec/Delay when i start up DS with AR?
I think you should post the date and time, because I think how many frames the radio advances is linked to the time.
If you have data showing that the frame advances are different depending on the time, then post it. This research is really tiring when you're the one doing\consolidating all of it.
Very odd..
I'm SRing for Lugia right now, and I have hit the desired seed (9E040267). I'm aiming for a timid lugia and I'm using a timid synchronizer as the lead. I immediately talked to Lugia once I hit the Continue button at the main menu. The frame advanced by 3, not 1 (which I expected). As a result, I didn't get the Lugia I wanted (I got a rash one instead of a timid one).
I'm pretty sure the Kimono Girls don't have anything to do with this, as (a) they don't turn in different directions and (b) I talk to lugia as soon as possible. What could be going on? :S

do you still have entei and raikou running around?, those roamers usually add 1 frame so that could explain your 3 instead of 1
I'm calibrating in HG with the lv 70 Lugia, and I'm getting fluctuating frames. I have Entei, Raikou, and one of the Latis roaming, so I should get a starting frame of 4. Sometimes, I do get frame 4, but other times I get frame 5. I've gotten a few repeating delays, but frame is inconsistent and differs each time. Does anyone know what could be causing this fluctuation in frame?
When using the "Find Initial Seed by Stats" tab of RNG Reporter's Seed Finder, is it necessary that the level of the Pokémon is unchanged since it was caught, or is it okay if I catch something low-leveled, use Rare Candies to get it to level 50, and then input its stats/level?
It's fine to level it since the RNG reporter calculates IVs when you input stats and obv the IVs won't change.
Thanks! That's what I thought, but I just wanted to make sure that the level was only used in checking IVs and wasn't more relevant to the data (since the RNG does play a role in what level Pokémon you encounter).
Oh, and I don't mean to get too off-topic here, but if you drew Spot yourself, great job! :)
It's just what HGSS does - be inconsistent. This is why I recommend killing off the roamers, so you start off with a consistent frame 1.
Based on your methods. the everything station will advance the frame streadily except for the upper right, correct?
If so, then If I tap the lower left station then tap the upper left station the frame would advance by 3 if I do this on anyday except sunday, correct?(part of rommstar method)
Example: Im about to release the dogs, (I have been looking for usually methods for days (days because I doing several college projects). if my frame is said 10 and I tap the lower left and upper left alternating 3 times then move exactly 1 step to when the dogs move, I will done the correct frame advancement, correct?
Edit
Also If I try to do a shiny egg, could I use this method to advance the frame? Also would the loan NPC throw the frame off?
Note
I RNG off carts, no pokesav, roms and etc...
Does the Radio detuning work in the E4? I might need some help when RNGing my shiny Raikou.
I'm going to RNG for Ho-oh... you recommend I kill/catch Suicune and Entei first? I haven't gone to Kanto yet (Lyra won't let me until I deal with Ho-oh), so I haven't gotten to Lati@s yet.
Is the nature of Suicune set when you release it or can u reset the nature?
