Most Generation PRNG Help / Information

Thank you.

But what about the delays being the opposite of an Even/odd delay?

Do I put the emerald in the slot of the ds?

Emerald or any other Pokemon GBA game, iirc. So, if you usually hit odd delays, putting a Pokemon GBA game in the bottom slot should make your delays even :]
 
Thank you, Princess. ^^

Damn it. It didn't work. What the heck am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Oh great. Now it works. I think the reason why it didn't work in the first place because probably the emerald I'm using has been used or it's old, or because I'm not hitting at the right time. :P
 
Hey, I have a problem here. When I'm trying to see if I hit my seed or not when hatching shiny pokemon, I enter it in the search elm function, to see what seed I hit. So, when was done calling him 9 times, I clicked the ok button, but instead of showing what seed I hit, it said,"No match was found for your Elm responses."
What's wrong?
 
Hey, I'm new to RNGing. I've managed to RNG many shinies from eggs. now i'm working on a Chained ditto from my diamond. I have my Frame: 872, The target time is 16:56:59 on 2011-04-25. Every time I try to get my coin flips, they don't match. can someone help me please?
 
That's correct. Except be sure to save while you're on your bike. When you sweet scent off the bike, the frame advancement is inconsistent.




Emerald is just method 1, except that the seed is always 0. As for finding spreads, I just use these.

ok thanks elite. so basically all i have to worry for is the frame i am able to hit consistently right? once i have all the prerequisites (parents a and b, pokemon with magma armor/ flame body)? I best be going for an almost flawless 3rd gen ditto first then. :D
 
Some unwanted circumstances caused me to switch to a DS with no L/R buttons. I re-calibrated and all, but my timer's always 40 or so off, and I was breeding... in Platinum like I always do.

I shot for my calibrated frame, which was 8. I hit my delay after a few tries and found that the egg was actually on frame 9.

No problem, right? I just searched for a spread on frame 9 and found one on 11 (1 journal flip before talking to the day-care man) and hit 8 again, making the frame I actually got the egg on 10. At this point, I was kind of angry... so I went back to my frame 8 seed, and I hit frame 9 again.

This isn't the first time it's happened. I always talk to the Day-care man at the same timd, so I don't understand why SOMETIMES NPCs go and move and sometimes they don't... is there a reason why? Both seeds were on the same day, within 14 hours of each other.
 
iFly:

Unfortunately, I think time between the calls to the RNG are also based on the RNG. This means that each seed you hit will not have identical advancement patterns.
 
I'm currently RNG'ing for Raikou and Entei is my ONLY roamer. If my target frame is 41, how many frame advancements should I do? Entei advances the frame by 1.
 
Okay, so this is just stupid.

I enter in all of my search terms in JavaRNG for method K, and the results it returns are for Method 1. I should know, I clicked "generate" for both 1 and K in RNG reporter, and they show up as being for method 1. Funny enough, though, it doesn't always do this.

Something is not right here.

Method K is no different than Method 1, other than the fact that some frames occur earlier than they do in method 1 (mainly due to synchronizers).
 
I'm trying to do my first Wondercard abuse and I'm a bit confused on the spreads that the Smogon guide has. Don't I have to be at the same seed they have listed to use them; if so, how do I ensure I have that seed without rebooting endlessly until I just happen to get lucky?

I'm working on the Mew that was given out last Fall in the States, by the way, on a legit copy of Soul Silver.


Still need a response; though if I did something incorrect in my post feel free to point it out so I can correct it.

I had a thought though, am I just supposed to keep resetting until a good seed comes up and ignore the guide on Smogon? Any guidance at all would be appreciated.
