Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Yeah, it generates seeds at nearby timer0 values and nearby times. I'm assuming you've hit the right time, so check the ones with the exact same times but different timer0 values first - then, if you still haven't found it, check the other seeds.
Check adjacent seeds. My timer0 fluctuates between C7F and C80, so if I'm aiming for a C7F seed and get an unexpected result, I check the equivalent PIDRNG value for the seed at timer0 = C80 and it's nearly always what I ended up with.
Right click your seed in the time finder and choose...
I just had something strange happen to me while working the RNG. I'm trying to abuse for a Thundurus - I wanted shiny, but I've since given up on that and am just going for good IVs and a good nature. The good IVs I have hit, but so far haven't found a good nature.
I decided to try a new seed...
I've got it at C80 each time I've tried (I did think of that and tried to recalibrate, but got C80 again).
If it IS timer0, should I check nearby seeds with other Timer0 values?
Trying to RNG for perfect IV Zekrom using Standard (No C-Gear).
So far, I've been able to hit the seed consistently and catch it, matching the IVs for the first frame of that seed. I need frame 6, so I reset everything and hit the seed again with five pokemon in my party. I walk 128 steps...
I'm having trouble with RNG for a shiny Rayquaza in Soul Silver.
I got shiny Groudon no problem.
I have been able to hit the seed, verified by roamers and elm calls. I advance to the proper frame and get into battle with Rayquaza and use a masterball. It is neither shiny nor the correct...
