Wow, thanks OmegaDonut and Pehu! You saved me a lot of time and nerves
I wish someone did the same to me. But Rename Card kept saying that I shouldn't give up. So, it took three days until I said "Enough is enough"
Thank you for answering my question, Wild Eep. Your verification of my mathematics has made my day! Now, time to try catching some Munchlax!
Are you sure your journal has pages of a caught or defeated pokemon?
They don't count. =P
They don't. Try another seed or keep resaving. Its mostly trial and error with egg IVs.
A couple curious questions.
1. When using the step method to RNG Suicune, would walking into Poke'mon increase frames? If so, how many?
2. Is it possible to RNG in the Sinjoh Ruins (aka Arceus Event Dragons)?

No.
Yeah, I've done it. Had to walk a lot of steps with just Arceus in my party, but I managed.
1) What do you mean by walking into pokemon, is it wild pokemon battles or just walking into your first pokemon or suicune?
2) Yes it is
1. Well, the Poke'mon that follows you, not walking into Suicune. That'd be weird. :P
2. Awesome. I'll check into some Giratina natured spreads. Too bad only Arceus has to be the only one in the party. How many frames for the dragons?
ok got it and no walking into it won't advance it just the steps you take matter. and the dragons are method 1 gift pokemon so they should start on frame 1
Alrighty. Tanks a lot, Nexus. :D
Okay, this is weird. I was running more tests with Ho-oh, and I had saved 1 step in front of the ladder on the 10th floor of the Tin Tower. I loaded my game, pushed UP once (put me on the ladder), pushed UP again (put me through the ladder to the rooftop), held UP for a few seconds to run up to Ho-oh, and then pressed A to start the battle. Assuming my steps did NOT trip the 128-step counter, Ho-oh should at least be on frame 2 (1 for the first step on the 10th floor + 1 for Ho-oh's frame), right? However, when I caught Ho-oh, the only option for its IVs/nature on the seed I hit was method K frame 1.
How could it be on frame 1? Any idea what's going on?

Exactly what happened to me that I asked last page. No real idea why it does that, but when I abuse my Ho-oh two days ago that happened to me. I had to do the 128 steps to give me the last few frames.
Did you have a repel in effect? I had one going, and i'm thinking that it might be that it cancels wild encounters, making the RNG in this game not increase.

Yes, actually, I did. I'll try wearing it off, saving again, and trying another time.
Well I'm saved on a tile where wild encounters ARE possible (Sweet Scent works there). After taking one step, I'm actually ON the ladder, where wild encounters AREN'T possible (Sweet Scent doesn't work). The next step puts me through the ladder onto the next floor.
A previous test I did seemed to indicate that the first step advanced the RNG, but the second didn't.
Ok, if i kill Suicune, what will happen? Will it come back with a different seed and what not?
I really prefer RNGing it later because that way i can be sure that I will catch it. Plus, I can't afford that many Dive Balls right now.

if you want to RNG it later then just leave it alone it will still be there besides suicune IVs and nature are generated when you talk to it not when you release it from burnt tower
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Would anyone mind pointing it out?
I'm trying to RNG my first caught Pokemon (Modest Trophy Garden Ditto from Plat). My coin flips are 100% spot-on, I've got the correct date/time, and I've been hitting the correct delay.. but it's not working.
The seed I found corresponds to Encounter Slot 6, which should have the daily Garden Pokemon. Instead of Ditto, though, I always run into the same Adamant Roselia. There're a couple of things I think I might be doing wrong:
1) I might be hitting the wrong frame. Ditto's on frame 93, so I flip the journal 45 times and use Sweet Scent. Is this correct?
2) I might be trying to RNG abuse the incorrect Encounter Slot. The Daily Pokemon only becomes yesterday's if you talk to the mansion's owner and replace it with a new Pokemon, right? I've had Ditto for a while, but I haven't changed the Trophy Garden Pokemon.
