One question: too use the search ivs feature in the rng reporter they must be the exact ivs (in which case ar would basically be required (due to the number of variations having every stat off by 1-2 in a normal iv calc online?)

Yes, you need to press it quickly to remove it. It affects it as the C-Gear is not fully activated until you press "yes" and tap the touch screen.
Uh, no. You can get exact IVs with Metalkid's calc and a few Rare Candies.
Still wondering about this... If no one knows, I'll be testing it soon.
Fine, you can button mash if that gets you results you like. But there are two reasons we teach people to use two-stage timers -- a) more control and b) more opportunities to hit seeds with good spreads on low frames.
If you insist on it, I better not hear a single peep out of you complaining about how many times you have to walk around to advance your frame.
You mean the message warning you about draining the battery? If so, then no, it doesn't affect the RNG. Although, judging by how you didn't get the message about catching Cobalion immediately for calibration after I warned you twice, you'll probably ignore this post, as well.
Yes.. but remember non-CGear is affected by AR and so is calibration. If you calibrate with an AR in, you always have to have it in, otherwise you wont hit the same thing.
hahaha
So this is my first time RNGing and I am trying to RNG Zekrom. RNG reporter says my target spread is on frame 22 so I looked and found the delay to be 1600. From there I get the time 15:07:53. When I enter 53 into Zomgtimer it gives me 0 minutes before target and 25.54 for a first time and a 27.451 for a second time. Once I set my time and enter the game, soft reset, say no to the c-gear, start it as the second timer hits I begin advancing frames. The C-Gear gives me an initial frame of 3, and then i move 128 steps with 2 pokemon, moving towards the PC in N's castle. That should add 2 more frames. Then I add 2 pokemon to my party for 14 more frames, so I am at 19. I then deposit two pokemon and depositing should have no effect on my frames. From there i take 128 steps back to Zekrom adding 2 more frames leaving me at 21. That's one frame before my target frame so I should hit 22 when i engage in battle with Zekrom right?
Edit: Also do I press yes on the C-gear when the second timer hits 0 or is it the battery draining warning thing that comes up after turning on the C-gear I'm targeting?

22-3-1+1=19 advances required. I only count 18, so you need to add in one more somewhere. You actually need to be "on" your target frame in 5th Gen.
As I alluded to in my previous post, pressing Yes is your target, not the screen after that.
I don't think so. The seed is generated when you press Yes. Tapping the screen right after that one is not really important at all for the seed generating
I began to button mash after a full day of using a timer. Button mashing was the only way I RNG'd in 4th Gen, and it got me my seeds very quickly. I think it will be much more reliable (for me) than ZomgTimer.
I also found that the C-Gear turns on 6 seconds after you say Yes (not sure if that's exact, but it's close,) meaning the target time is about 6 seconds after, if there are any other button mashers.

Only 2482? The delay for my Thundurus is like 6500.. However, I don't think it makes a difference mechanically but I feel the higher the delay the more likely I am to just tab around the internet and mess up my timing because I get bored.
Yeah every delay is just as easy to hit as the next. Just it's a matter of how focused you are. Just like Zerofocus, when there is a higher timer, I tend to wander the internet, or talk to people. Than forget the timer was on and have to start all over xD!
Once again:
Something to the effect of the above should probably be added to the first post, if not there already. >.>
EDIT:
I'm guessing that you're using one of ToastPlusOne's timers. If so, don't worry; the first and second timers actually should add up to hit your target seconds, even if the first one doesn't match.
Does anyone know where I can find encounter slots? And, is it possible to RNG shiny pokemon via C-Gear abuse, or no?
Also, the only HP Ice 70 spread my DS has is 31/11/31/31/31/30 on frame 20, and the delay is 1600 something, Iirc. I was originally going to use this spread for Victini, but sadly, the room that Victini is in has no PC, and there's no PC anywhere on Liberty Garden/Island, so I have to walk ~2176 steps in that small room :/ Idk how I'll keep track of that, so does anyone know if there's a good way to keep track of steps?

Thanks! That's a great idea :] I still have these two questions, though, so if anyone can tell me, that would be very nice. Thanks in advance :D
Basically, yeah.
Nobody has figured out encounter slots yet, and no, because turning on the C-Gear throttles the RNG for shininess forward at about 120 frames per second.
