Might be a discovery! I got my Shiny Charmander on frame 3... but the thing is... I received no phone calls from anyone other than the Day Care Man. :o How do I know this? Because I was biking around waiting for the old man to call me -_-;;.

That's pretty strange... especially if you hit the right seed both times. Changing hours does not matter, unless its from 23:59 to 00:00, signifying a new day. I found out today that the egg RNG is called the IRNG and that giving specific trainers phone calls can definitely advance the IRNG. I'm...

Wow, that is really interesting. I wonder if this rule applies for receiving calls as well.

Incoming Wall of Text (PLEASE NOTE: Parts of this post may be very unspecific. For example, it doesn't go over Monster Methods and Frames and skips over many information input fields. More research may be needed. This is just a brief, general guide.) Okay in HGSS, you can tell if you're...

No problem.

Sure go ahead. I've read somewhere that things that normally advance the frame of the RNG (talking to your Pokemon, adventuring around, radio, phone calls, etc.) do not advance the egg RNG (I think there's a specific name for this somewhere...). For me, taking many steps just to get a phone call...

When I look for shiny eggs, I typically look for low frames, not a frame of 1. I've found that as long as you hit your Initial Seed correctly and verify that the seed and delay are correct, the frames are usually correct (on rare occasions do undesired results occur). The only time I've found...

Your guide's huge O_O... compared to what I usually do to get my shinies ._.

Do you have a target time or delay you're trying for? The target time and delay determine your initial seed, which pretty much directs the whole process. EDIT*** Anyone know the monster frame for Mewtwo in HGSS?

Hi, I'm having a very hard time hitting my target delays. Emloop and PikaTimer don't really help me, because my delays are low (around 490) and my seconds are higher than normal (14). On emloop, it 490 translates to roughly 8 seconds, but I know that's not right, since I usually get 14 seconds...

What program would you recommend the most?

When breeding for a shiny or doing and other RNG thing, is there any way I can increase my delay? It's becoming difficult to land on a specific delay.

Hmm, do the delays have to match up exactly? Let's say in the first window, I choose a seed with a delay of 483. In the second window (Seeds to Time), do I have to get the exact same delay again (483) after I enter the Elm information? EDIT*** Never mind, the seeds have to match up exactly. My...

Well, it sure did help me! Thanks. I'll post back if I get my shiny!

Yep... I'm trying to pick one up. Or... I can get a female starter and start breeding for a shiny. I think that's easier. Can you teach me how?
