Alexa, I picked up a Japanese version of SS to get wondercard pokes and used it for RNGing them. I just wanted to warn you that the three types of Elm calls in Japanese didn't properly show up until after I had beaten the Elite Four. Prior to that, it was impossible to RNG with Elm because I got one response only and it didn't seem to match anything on the Elm call list. You may still be able to use the radio to advance, however, prior to beating the E4.

Just wondering, for Pokewalker RNGing purposes, how would one find any frame 1 spread (like that 29/30/30/0/30/1 from a while ago, for example), since RNGReporter can only find spreads via Method 1 which will +2 when translated to Wondercard(i.e. minimum frame 3)? Not a big deal, just wondering what means of search there are for that.
Ha, we actually started just knowing the Japanese version and having to translate to English... Hm, I have a picture somewhere...
There. Um, now, which is which... I think the middle one might be Kanto? Well, if you'll search back in the RNG Research thread (and probably this thread, too) you can find the information, and the original Japanese programme.
Ok, thank you Riski, Showsii and musicmeister. So if I have beaten the Elite 4, can I use elm calls to advance +1 frame?
Yes, you can. :-)
Anyone?
I believe that the first one is the evolution one, second one is Kanto, third one is Pokerus. My Japanese is very poor, but I know enough to recognize that much...

I wanna say they do affect but I know someone's gonna prove me wrong. Also dont see what happened if the elm calls matched up.
Yes they do, but you will have to:
A. Start the game again
B. Record where the dogs are in the seed to time fuction, then generate
C. Hit your time
D. Advance the frame but the amount needed
But the dogs advance the frame, I dont know how you got below the frame O.o
Encounter slots are dependent on what frame you're on. Just take your seed and enter it into the main window of RNG Reporter with Synch/Method selected. Generate and pick a frame that you want and right click >>> encounter slots. The tables should be there via links and the number will correspond with the link given :)
This is probably a dumb question, but do wandering NPCs affect the RNG at all if they're not on screen? I'm going to try to RNG a shiny Corphish at Celestic Town, where there are two wandering NPCs at the top of the town, but I'm going to be fishing at the bottom of the town.
Method K as far as I know
That almost always means that the spread you are searching for cannot be generated in your game or at all. You will have to lower the IVs you want a bit...see if that helps.
The program should have produced tons of results since you left the search so broad. My guess is that you are not inputing the right information
Ok...I am a bit frustrated now. I knocked out all three roamers and tried getting the Jirachi again. I again hit the frame of 135 and then talked to the delivery guy only to get the IV set that was for frame 134. I would appreciate someone, who knows what is going on, helping me out with this.
Also, I am in the Cerulean City Poke mart so there are no NPCs either.

Just a couple quick questions:
1. How do I use the RNG to catch flawless pokemon in the Safari Zone (HG, mostly, but there's also a few pokemon I'm interested in hiding in Emerald and Pearl)?
2. I still haven't collected my WORLD10 Crobat from the delivery guy, because I want to get a flawless one. Unfortunatly, it appears that in order to get him within my delay range, I need to set my calendar to about 2165, while the calendar itself doesn't go above 2099. Does anyone have a solution to this dilema?

I haven't done a wondercard on HG/SS, but just advance it one frame less next time.
Edit: Firestorm, I suggest using emloop or pikatimer, which allow you to hit higher delays and not have to change the year of your DS. There are posts on the front page explaining how to use them.
What I wrote would point out that doing one less frame would put me behind another frame. It doesn't matter I tried it again and this time I went to frame 137 and that landed me on frame 136 so I figured it out.
