5th Gen PRNG Help / Info - Latest: RNG Reporter 9.96.5, PPRNG 1.15.0

Can th Zoroark that you encounter in Lostlorn Forest be shiny? I know that Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini can't be shiny, so I was wondering if this is true for Zoroark as well.
 
  • Version of RNG Reporter I'm using: 9.79 Public Beta
  • I'm trying to breed a shiny Pokemon & catch a shiny Pokemon
  • I don't know what my target seed & frame or delay of the seed is. MAC address of my 3DS is: A4-C0-E1-66-1D
  • I don't know how to verify my seed.
  • The result that I've gotten is not being able to find my SID.
  • I understand all of the rules.
 
I really don't care about Dark Pulse :l I think Night Daze is better anyways. Well, thanks for letting me know. But I have a question: how come even when I hit my spread, it thinks I don't have a synchronizer? I get Jolly, even though that is the nature if you DON'T have a synchronizer. I am using a Fainted Timid Munna in front and a Smeargle behind it. Does it get affected since I am using a shiny spread? I am not going to continue USING this spread since I will breed it for shinyness, but what is wrong? Thanks!

Please re-read the notice to DSi\3DS owners. They are unable to take advantage of standard seeds and obtain shiny Pokemon.
 
Is the only way to find a time to hit Standard Seeds on the Time Finder after you search? I liked being able to type my seed in the Seed to Time thing and find a time like in 4th gen because I forgot to write down the time for this seed I found yesterday :(

Sorry, just not possible given the way standard seeds are encrypted.
 
Going for a shiny quint-flawless Virizion. Good ranges to search?

Search for 31/x/31/31/31/31 (or 31/31/31/x/31/31) in time finder and set max shiny frame to whatever you're willing to chatter to (1000+ probably for the most results, I had to chatter 2300 times for a HP ice joltik).

If you're looking for something low and easy to hit you'll probably have to search multiple months.

Is there another Jolly frame right after it? If I understand the shiny check correctly, it just generates a new PID if the one it hits would be shiny.

Thanks, but IV frame? Keypresses?
 
Since there's no NPCs or wild encounters in the area with Virizion, it's actually really easy to hit higher IV frames. I got a shiny one on frame 9, shiny frame 300ish, with no trouble at all.

No. There is one on 362 but I was going for 324. But it doesn't matter really. It just bothers me not to know how I didn't get Timid nature.
 
If you have a couple of rare candies, it should be easy to get accurate results (you don't have to save, after all). I didn't have any trouble doing it with an IV range, though. What exactly is the problem?

Little late response from me, sorry. The problem is I'm not getting any search results for this cart, but I'm trading over some Rare Candies from my cloning cart so I can make sure it's not an IV-related problem. AFAIK I'm doing everything else right, and it has worked before seamlessly with my previous two cartridge calibration phases.

EDIT: Oh God, I forgot that my old DS Lite broke and I'm using a new one with a different Mac address. That's probably it.

EDIT: Yes, it was as I said above. Found my new address, got the info right, found my results. Don't worry about rebuking me, I just audibly slapped myself.
 
Sorry to ask this, but I've looked over countless pages without finding an answer to a simple question.

Does Sweet Scenting advance the PID frame, and if so, by how many frames? Thanks!

I already gave the answer at simple questions/requests, but Sweet Scenting does not advance the PID frame. Just do the amount of saves/turns/chatters, and then use Sweet Scent. Sweet Scent is just there so you can encounter to Pokémon on the PID frame.

Ehehe, thanks. Sorry, didn't see the response.
 
I've been trying to check the PID of a DW Litwick but for some reason, it won't go through on PokeCheck. Do you know how to fix Pokecheck or would I have use different pokemon to check the SSF?
 
alright going for a shiny adamant deerling and here's my seed and stuff

B69FB9F315AC1A02
nearest shiny:74
frame:1
starting PID:54
Ivs:31/31/24/15/31/31
Keypresses:B+Y
Time:13:57:31 1/15/11

now i was succesfully able to RNG a shiny Roggenrola with this seed a second ago but for deerling it has the right ivs but wrong nature and not shiny. whats going on?"

Uh, NPCs? The only Deerling available are in areas where NPCs affect the frame. Pretty sure Route 6 and 7 have them, and so do the outskirts of Dragonspiral Tower.

huh i got it now but a weird thing happened. i RNGed it by the first bridge right when you leave town. now i decided to see where my starting PID was in case it shifted and when i did i got a bashful deerling with no chatters and ability 0. it was on frame 66 so i figured 8 chatters and ill get it. did those and got a diff one so i said "lets go for 10" did 10 chatters after resetting and got it. how does that work?
