If I had to guess, I'd say that shiny frame does not work with the everstone. Similar to using a sychronizer out in the wild. Some frames can be synchronized while others cannot.
EDIT: Does that shiny frame come up as a Docile nature?

Everstone shifts some of the values around by 1 frame, I think.
Could use some help with breeding for the first time here. Going for a Modest HP Electric Panpour, so I put in a female Panpour and my male Empoleon in the daycare. I choose a seed with the frame of 8 and choose the Gift Pokemon encounter type, saved infront of the old man, and for the past 10 tries, I don't get the right IVs and I know I had to have atleast hit my seed by now (especially because my keypresses don't involve R/L buttons). Is there anything I'm doing wrong perhaps?
Right after you get the egg, fly to Victory Road and immediately catch a Pokémon. Check its IVs against frame 14 of your seed and the adjacents (if none of them match, try frame 14+n, where n is the number of Pokémon in your party). That will tell you what you hit. Odds are you're just consistently getting the wrong Timer0. Happens to almost everyone at some point.
Yeah but I've never had this much trouble and now I'm at 12 tries with no luck. I even just tried a new seed and even with both, I get an Impish nature, with only 3 good IVs and Hidden Power Fire, which I found wierd since I got that from both seeds. Don't think it's relevant, but I'm not using an Everstone and the Panpour is Japanese.
Make sure if you use international Parents, set it to BW International breeding
and make sure you select the right game(black/white eng/jap) under your parameters
just a couple things that might be the cause

So I want to RNG for a shiny Sandile. I don't really care about IVs since I'm just trying this out. I already know how to RNG for stationary legends (standard method). How do I RNG wild shinies from there? Do I just go to Time Finder and put my ID and SID and the max shiny frame and check the box after selecting Wild Pokemon and Standard Seed?
Thanks:)
Thanks:)
Ok this is the 8th time I've hit a seed and got only 3 flawless Ivs with Hidden Power Fire from my hatched Pokemon. My spread again is a 31 / 31 / 31 / 30 / 31 / 31 HP Electric seed, on frame 8 and my parameters are all fine, and that's all I'm getting. From what I've been reading, I put the parents in and hit my seed seed. So is there anything more to this I might not be understanding?
:EDIT:
I think I understand now: I saw somewhere that the hatched Pokemon recieves the IVs from the seed, but then the parents overwrite some of the spread with their own IVs, so my 31 / 31 / 31 / 30 / 31 / 31 Ivs are being tampered with. So I need to have practically the same IV'd parents to fix that. Does this all sound about right?

It's wierd because I just tried it again and I got all the right IVs. Empoleon was the only one that had the IVs 31 / 31 / 31 / 30 / 31 / 31, so I guess I hit a frame that inherited his IVs?
Anyway, quick question, if Panpour has the Male ratio of 87.5%, would I just look at his 75% ratio?
Will the 'Calculte Initial PIDRNG Frame' be accurate if there are NPC's in an area but not moving NPC's?

For every RNG, the only things that can mess with it are controllable, or NPCs. NPCs that move and are not currently on the screen (but still on the map you are on) will still advance the RNG.

The methods that are posted are the simplest explanations known at this time. If someone finds a simpler way of doing (or explaining) it, it'll get posted.
Personally, I went through 2 videos and 3 guides before I had a handle on the basics, but beyond that it's just extending what you've already learnt to new areas.
I've encountered a bug in the 5th Gen Shiny Egg Finder. I want to find a spread for male offspring (I need to breed a parent.) So I chose Gender: Male. However, when I start the search, it reverts back to Any. Here's some screenshots:
That's not a bug. That was deliberate. I kinda figured the fact that it was greyed out made it obvious. (Oh, but I guess I didn't grey it out before you click Generate.)
The code for 5th gen breeding really wasn't set up for gender filtering, and I was under time constraints. I decided to just disable gender filters and go ahead with release, since it's not a major feature.
Oh, how come?
Hello.
First of all, I'd like to thank the people on this forum for having made this guide, RNG is wonderful!
I come with one question, though.
I use standard RNG.
I'm able to RNG wild pokémon and shiny eggs just fine (haven't tried anything else because, sadly, I had caught all my legends way before I came across RNGing...), but sometimes I get some odd behaviour with eggs.
So I find a good shiny eggs seed, proceed to abuse it for a bit, and everything goes great.
But sometimes, if I decide to reuse it, say, the next day, to abuse eggs some more, I stop getting the desired results, no matter how many times I try. I even start getting results that are nowhere in that seed.
I'm pretty sure I'm hitting the right seed, at least theoretically; for wild encounters, I never had a seed fail on me, the first few times I used the same seed for several shiny eggs it always works, and I find it hard to hit a seed wrong 8 consecutive times when you usually get it right.
The "solution" for this is finding another shiny eggs seed, and then abuse successfully it until things start to get weird again.
I had this happen with eggs twice; I never had any problems with wild pokémon, but then again, I don't abuse wild pokémon nearly as much.
Does Timer0 just decide to go crazy like this once in a while or might I actually be doing something wrong?

What do you mean by "I stop getting the desired results?"
You're getting IVs that aren't in your seed or from your parents? Or you're getting the wrong PID frame? If it's the wrong IVs there's no solution to that as the timer0 can't be controlled.If it's the wrong PID frame then maybe your initial frame was different. Your initial PID frame can differ. In my experience it's usually within +3 of what RNG reporter tells you. So if reporter says it's 50, it could be anywhere from 50-53.
