Most Generation PRNG Help / Information

Wasn't sure where to ask, but is there research on encounter slots going on? I'm plenty willing to contribute to it if there is.

We have all the all the encounter info, but it's recorded in terms of "30% encounter rate". mingot needs to translate those to encounter slots.
 
all right... I'm gonna ask this one again since I didn't get an answer... does anybody have any Timid Method J sets for Hidden Power Ice? (I have a Timid Synchronizer)
 
I hit my seed, but I accedently used the old rod when I going for my journal. -____- When using it and having the "theres a time and place for everything young padwan.." message come up does that cause any frame advances? If so, by how much? (in Platinum, not HGSS)
 
A question regarding the resetting of Raikou pre-E4.

I have calibrated Emloop to my delay and am ready to begin resetting.

When I get in to game and sweet scent for a pokemon to check I have hit delay. If I hit my delay and say the sweet scented Pokemon lands on frame 41, can I take this away from my target frame?

I have heard of Sweet Scent chaining but cannot find anything for this (was searching yesterday), anyway does this work for Method 1 legends?
 
These are the most reliable ones but yeah there are more, you simply have to look for breeding spreads that contain only B inheritance and no A inheritance whatsoever, these will work just fine.

And yeah it really sucks hitting those delays, pretty hard:/

Wait so breeding in HGSS works normally if all inheritance is from B?

What about skipping Egg PIDs, is there any info on that yet?
 
I'm trying to abuse for an ID/SID on Silver. I used PokeRNG to find a spread I liked, put it into IDFinder, picked an ID/SID and delay. Put it into RNG Reporter and began resetting. Tried and tried and eventually hit my delay, but I got a different ID no. than I should have. Then I tried it with two other ID numbers, hit their delays but go t different numbers than I should have. I'm absolutely sure I did this all correctly, as it worked for Diamond. Are the ID numbers just different in HG/SS? Where am I going wrong?

It tends to happen, there are theories about split spreads, but as I remember this was only for spreads where A und B were involved.
So basically yeah, if you use B inheritance only it should work.
As I thought it pretty hard to hit the Seeds from Kazokun I simply searched for other ones in RNG Reporter with B only and it seems to work,
at least my HG/SS breeds in my thread agree with me :)

No they are just the same. Although it is possible to hit very low delays in HG/SS, Wild Eep did 4001 the other day.

For checking: Just put the ID and SID you got into ID Finder to see how much you was actually off your desired seed.
Even one second off will give you a total different ID/SID combination.
 
Is it easier to RNG entei and raikou at the burned tower or after the E4? And, for Suicune, are its IVs/PID generated when you release it from the burned tower, or when you battle it?
Thanks.

Yeah hell easier at the burned tower.
Also easier to check your seed since there are wild pokemon out there.

And for the 23789023758923789572389 time as this question is asked twice a day:

Suicune is a stationary legend and therefore as any other stationary legend you ever encountered a Method K Pokemon whose IVs and PID are generated when you battle it outside of Bills House...
Of course you have to chase it a couple of times first.

@OmegaDonut: I'd be grateful if you could put this information also into your post as this question occurs here way too often.
 
Question about platinum:

I'm RNGing heatran. is that room an area with wild pokemon?

edit- NVM, it isn't

thx EE
 
Can anybody tell me a good modest hp grass spread (method J)? (ability doesn't matter since i will rng heatran with it)

I found a modest hp grass 68: 30/29/30/30/31/31

but the frame is high (2960)
 
I haven't had any problems with Sweet Scenting. I am not sure if it the same as DPPt though.

[Starting] 1 + 1 = 2
[After 1 Sweet Scent and Battle] 3 + 6 = 9 + 1 = 10
[After 2 Sweet Scents and Battles] 19 + 6 = 25 + 1 = 26

Start on frame 1 and then advance by 1 when using Sweet Scent [sweet scent will always advance by 1]. So the pokemon you get will be a frame 2 pokemon. After that, you take the "Actual Frame" of the pokemon found in RNG Reporter [in this case 3] and add 6 because of the battle. Now you are on frame 9. Sweet scent once again, increasing your frame by 1 to get a frame 10 pokemon. Again take the "Actual Frame" [19] and add it by 6. Now you are on frame 25. If you sweet scent again, then you will get to 26. And so on and so forth.

This has been the case for me thus far in HG Abuse.

This is something that Ditto posted pretty much confirming what you asked
 
Thanks. Now to hit the right seed for Entei :)
I'm using a modified version of my Wondercard Seed Finder to find my delay; if anyone wants it, let me know. Basically, unlike RNG Reporter's Seed Finder, you need to input the target second and delay yourself, and it searches far fewer spreads (I've currently got it searching 200 frames per seed); however, I can find the seed by catching low leveled Pokémon without using Rare Candies. I used it to get my shiny starter (i.e. I got my seed from a level 5 :P).
 
Platinum question here (haven't got HG/SS yet, Will in a couple weeks). For RNG capture, it says walking 128 steps will increse the frame by 5 and it will stay like that after a soft reset. Does this happen during hard reset too? Also, can you advance the frame any other way? (I thought Happiness app increased frame too, right?)
 
1st, frame advancement doesn't roll over after a soft reset. Everytime the game loads, the frame starts back over by 1 and is increased from there on.
2nd, you can advance it by flipping back and forth between pages in your journal that say you have caught/defeated a pokemon on it. Every time yolu turn to one of those pages the frame is advanced by two.

Just a side note, the coin flip app and happiness app advance the IRNG, which controls the egg data, not a caught pokemon's data.
