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

Oh F...

I forgot in gen 5 walking in grass, caves etc doesn't help this RNG. Ignore that

Yes you need a sync and one other pokemon
 
Sorry that was a brainfart on my behalf. I was hoping to edit my post before you saw it.

When I did my Zekrom the first time I needed frame 7 so I had 4 pokemon in my party, did laps of the throne room for 128 steps then encountered him. You want frame 5 so do the same thing but with only 2 pokemon in your party.

Sorry about the confusion.
 
is there any way to control what pokemon that will appear because ditto only has a 15% chance to appear and i haven't seen it at all even after 9 times trying (granted i haven't hit my seed either)
 
If you're hitting close don't update and see if you keep hitting close. Eventually you'll hit your seed. Looks like you hit pretty close with -49 so you should just keep using that and see what happens. You should try several times before updating. Sometimes you'll hit too high or too low with the same calibration which is why updating after every one try isn't such a good idea. This happens to me all the time in this game.

Agreeing here. Just set it to -50 (which seems to be your average here) the rest just seems to be your own variance. You'll get there though.

Few questions about cgear rng and zomgtimer

when you enter the seed into generate more times, it gives you a list of times and dates. How do you which secod is the right one? In ther words, if you have a delay of 1935 how do you know how many seconds it will take you?

It takes 32:25 for 1935 delays to elapse, if that's what you're asking. Any second will work though. You don't need a specific one. I incorporated a better version of "suggested second" into EonTimer. This gives you the second that'll get you the lowest overall time given how fast you can start the game (right-click for anyone interested).

And to the last question you posted, I'm not sure what you mean...

Are you referring to cart as the retail cartridge or a flash cart?
So Synchronizers are my best bet to land on the nature I want for my Pokemon?

Yep x 2.




Edit:
@Blamon, encounter slots. Those are determined by the RNG that's non manipulatable for now.
 
Hey guys. Right now, I'm planning to start calibrating for the first time.
For now, I have to use Cobalion, a syncher, and a spare Master Ball I have.

How will I calibrate? I tried reading on the first page, but it seemed to be a bit confusing.
Do I also have to mash the buttons quickly, like in 4th Gen, until I'll "talk" to Cobalion?
And do I have to use the Seed Finder in the RNG Reporter 9 Beta 1?

No button mashing. Just use the default settings to aim for a seed you pick. Use the IV search to find out what delay you hit. Update the timer with that delay. Congrats, you're calibrated.
 
There is a native Mac application for RNG abuse that will be released at the same time as the next RNG reporter so that people will no longer need to fight with mono in order to find seeds, etc.

This is the greatest news I've gotten in a while, mono totally sucked. Thank you so much for letting me know! No longer will we suffer with missing buttons and spontaneous uncloseable windows.
 
I'm still confused with this calibration thing -_-
BTW, when will be the seed generated?
When I soft-reset? Or when I press yes to that turning on the C-gear? (after saying no before you continue the game)

When the cgear is turned on.

The point is pretty much that you don't have to worry about calibrating. Just start trying to RNG. The calibration will work itself out in the process. Remember in 4th gen when you'd get a different set of responses? You found out what delay you hit and if you weren't even close, you updated your timer. That's all you're doing here.
 
OK I'm almost there...
But I'm still n00bish to these things, because this is my first time doing so.

To make it short, say I saved my game facing Cobalion face to face.
My target delay is 1442, and my target time is 1:00:58.
In the EonTimer, the time for the first timer is 32:30, and the second timer is 25:69.
My question is, to make it simple, what will I do or what will I press if the first timer ends?
And how about for the second timer?

BTW, what does -95 mean under Calibration?
 
I'm trying to RNG capture a frillish on route 17 and I can't get any response from sweet scent. Is there anything I can do?

the first timer tells you when you should reset or start the game and the second timer is for when you turn on the c-gear. the -95 means how the calibration changed the timer to better suit you
