I am sure its not my Timer0 because I have been using the same timer0 and have successfully RNGed all 3 of the musketeer trio, Zoroark, Zorua, Victini, and Volcarona using seeds from the same timer0 value. I think its probably the button thing that is messing me up. I got one on Frame 1 where I only have to hold Left so I will hold left on the dpad right after I start the game until the years for the game show up.

Yes as long as you hit your seed then you can advance the pid frame as you need
Timer0 usually starts messing up when multiple keypresses are involved.
Edit: Using time finder, generate the adjacent seeds (current frame) and see if any match what you're getting.
Don't be "sure" until you've actually checked.
I've had Timer0 be consistent for dozens of attempts in a row, then suddenly switch to being consistently the other one. Check it anyway.
The easy way to verify your seed is as soon as you've picked up your egg fly to the top of victory road and sweet scent - the pokemon you catch should be on an IV frame of ~14 for the seed you're using.
I'm pretty sure it doesn't. I was able to RNG on that floor without any trouble.
Still cant figure out my problem. Any suggestions?
Hey, are you guys ever going to make a button for a desired PID Frame? Because it really annoys me sometimes when I find a spread that looks awesome but is on like PID Frame 83921 or something(Shiny PID). *Figured it out*
EDIT: I realized that I need to put in a spread, lol.

whats type of timer do you have? i figured my problem out yesterday involving my timer
Timer0 changes whenever the hell Timer0 feels like changing. I RNGd fine for numerous pokemon and then all of a sudden i didnt work. I kept trying with the ame results till I found out that Timer0 does what it wants when it wants.
Are you at the floor where Cobalion is? There's no NPCs advancing the PID frame. It can also be your timer fluctuating.
Okay, here is another question!!! Is the PIDRNG Frame calculator 100% accurate in a place with no NPCs? If not, how accurate is it? I need to know this stuff for future reference. For example, I need to know to use/not use this calculator. Thanks in advance!
I'm on the second floor (not the one with Cobalion, but not the one with the two hikers). I don't think it's my timer fluctuating, as I still get the IVs I want (according to the IV guy in the battle subway and the characteristic of what I catch).
I think the Hikers affect the PID regardless of their challenge status
Question: Does sending Zekrom/Reshiram to Dragonspiral Tower change anything? I don't really want to RNG them now so I'm filling up my boxes so I can get to them later. I just want to make sure sending them there isn't going to lock in there nature/IVs or anything like that. Has anyone RNGed them at Dragonspiral Tower?
Any help would be great!

Apparently there's some debate over if the shiny check on Zekrom/Reshiram is gone when they're at Dragonspiral Tower. But it's tedious getting 726 Pokemon to fill up PC boxes + Party just to do that...
This article mentions Smogon saying the shiny check is there, but Serebii saying it's not haha. I'm more inclined to believe that the shiny check is still there, so all those people trying might just be wasting their time: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/7389/the-shiny-factor-reshiram-and-zekrom
What does "Possible Shaking" refer to?
Edit:
Edit:
The shiny check is still there. If that's why you're doing it, don't bother.
When RNGing for Dream World pokemon, do their IVs and Nature get calculated in the Dream World or in the Entralink?
Im guessing Entralink, and if so does the Entralink's wireless connection disrupt the frame enhancement.
And also one last question, Im guessing if the wireless does nothing to the frame, then this is only accessible for people with that can do Standard RNG abuse. Am I right?

Ah thanks for the confirmation, I wasn't planning on it but this is good to know then if anyone trades a shiny Z/R then it's definitely hacked.
If you read the second post of this thread, I believe Entralink RNG is actually C-Gear abuse, or at least can be done with C-Gear seeding.
I assume they can be manipulated at N's Castle too, just that you are then forced into two battles and a forced save at the end of the game with no way to check IV's before that; so Dragonspiral Tower is the only solution for RNG manipulation.
