The short version is that spreads happen multiple times over the course of an hour. If it is one minute later, and your DS clock's seconds when you press continue is one earlier than before, you get the same seed you got last time if you have a consistent delay. It's very possible you got the...

Ok, I'm closing in on understanding all the shenanigans behind PRNG abuse and all. The last piece of the puzzle is a program (since by hand this would be ridiculous) that could quickly blast through the 16^4 possiblities to construct the seed that leads to a PID, which I'm sure you're already...

That is actually helpful, I had noticed some of those trends but I'm glad now I didn't take the time to document them since you already knew them. Alas though, that's not exactly what I'm interested in right now... I've got down finding a seed, and then using it to generate the PID/IVs of the...

Exactly. What delays have you been getting, and do you usually press A very quickly until you get through the continue screen, or do you take your time? Edit: The master has stepped in. I'll go back to fiddling with figuring out how the crap you can find where a seed places you on the PRNG...

Mingot has updated the program since then to exclude many of the seeds that are unlikely for people that start the game quickly. Its makes it easier to use, so what you see is usually the right one.

Make sure your year, month, date, hour and minute are right. Your ID and SID have no effect on how the seed finder itself works. If all your time information is correct, you're either waiting way to long in the title and continue screens (over a minute is too long), or you're putting in the...

It means that if you are breeding, that stat is inherited from either the first parent (A) or the second parent (B) that you have in the daycare. Parent A is the one who's name is said first if you ask the guy about your pokemon.

12.5%. All starters have that gender distribution. The number represents the female gender percentage, so if it has a 75% chance of being female, the 75 column will tell you its gender for that spread.

Score one for the continue screen theory. Yeah, that's probably not it, but it's worked for me. Oh, and I tried with Ranch to make another option pop up, but the DS doesn't have enough time to get the Wii signal while I tap, so that was a no-go on the test. Either way, practically having a...

E=even numbers O=odd numbers HP=hidden power numbers, i.e. numbers that raise the base power of HP HP_E=even hidden power numbers HP_O=odd hidden power numbers I'm pretty sure that's right, if Mingot says otherwise go with him but this seems to be the intuitive answer.

I suck, I meant delay and the whole even/odd thing.

Muna, I use that all the time to get a parent of the right gender/nature if I need it, and since I don't have my SID I use it to ignore everstones entirely. Most common mistake is forgetting to put it on the Egg ID option, that's how I was messing up my natures. Other possible mistake was not...

Testing so far is promising, but more people trying it would be good. I'll also try with Pokemon Ranch broadcasting a Connect to Wii signal and see if that follows the trends I'm seeing. This makes a little more sense than most other theories, although I have no clue why it would work this way.

I use nothing, so I have been mixing it up between hard and soft resets. I did 15-20 hard resets when I was stuck on odds, and they all came out odd, so it's not a sure thing. This is interesting, I'll recheck and make sure my delays are still the same now. Edit: All my results are coming out...

I would say 27 for seconds, but it's a rough call. Try adjusting when you reset so you always hit continue on 27. For offset, 4 or 5 is a wash, whichever one has the spread you want. They both look good. Edit: Final post for the night. I believe I have found a (if not the) primary factor in...

Ok, had to keep this one and ruin a batch of testing and lose a rare candy...this is too good. Magikarp Lv. 55 Met at Lv. 54 in Resort Area Impish 31/28/31/1/31/30 No, I'm not kidding. I can give the specifics of when it was caught as proof, I just think this is way too funny. Makes up for...

Yeah, when I was resetting in 2089 (don't ask...) I was getting evens, and now in 2009 I'm getting odds, so pretty sure that ain't it. Still have some more work to do, other responsibilities have been :gasp: trumping Pokemon in my life. Sad, I know...

Exactly 215. On another note, I've been playing with delays. As of right now since I started tracking, all mine have been odd. I'm going to try changing different variables since I know I have gotten even delays before, and we'll see what I come up with. It is possible though that one can be...

That is correct 215. And I have confirmed getting both even and odd delays, though I do tend to get them in bunches. Need to test more before I can be sure of anything though.

Really stupid suggestion for RNG Reporter... It would be really nice if hitting tab in the seed finder highlighted the next field when I'm putting in IVs, so I didn't have to manually delete each one. Not vital, but it would be nice. Im still looking for delay patterns...
