Wrong PokeRNGDP doesn't tell you the ID/SID(I didnt click the link). Use Pandoras Box on the RNG Reporter. Just insert the PID of the pokemon you want.
Thanks, but how can I find the PID of the Pokemon I want, from my nature and IV combo? I tried using the "IVs to PID" tab, but that one does not allow me to search for minimum IVs.
Also, I read on this forums that it is impossible to catch a flawless jolly shiny Pokemon. Is that true?

Hex Flawless is impossible. Just search for the Spread you want in the Seed Finder with the Open Box Checked. Then pick the seed click generate. Then Find the Spread you want and the PID should be beside it.
If flawless is " all 31", then it is impossilbe, but it is possilbe to catch 31/31/31/0/31/31 Jolly :D
enter the pid in pandora's pox RNG at the left column
enter the pid in pandora's pox RNG at the left column
It gives you the PID which you enter in RNG reporter to get your seed for the id/sid combo
Thanks, both of you, it works.
Actually, what happens is, I used the Pandoras Box, and it generates a huge list of ID/SID combinations. Do you mean to say that I can get my Jolly spread if I get ANY one of this combos?
But I was also wondering why there are so few people that have shiny 31/31/31/0/31/31 jolly spreads, when shiny timid HP Fire spreads are so common.

Yes you have to hit one of those. Everyone just wants their own HP Fire Latis. :P
Posting this again because I didn't get much of a response last time. My ID/SID are both correct (I've re-checked them both a million times) and I'm not landing on any other apps while switching around on the Poketch. I'm either monumentally retarded or something is going wrong with game/my RNG Reporter, and I need someone to test out my save for me so I can start narrowing down what's wrong.
Edit:
Just to further clarify the problems I'm having I'll write down my step-by-step procedure while attempting to hatch the Pokemon RNG Reporter says I should:
1. I verify that my DS Clock and Computer Clock are in sync. Both say 5:10 (17:10), with identical seconds-hands.
2. Restart the system, turn on the game. I press A on the Continue screen at 17:11.
3. I'm just south of Stark Mountain. I catch a Lvl 53 Camerupt. It is now the sixth Pokemon in my party.
4. I enter the Camerupt's details into RNG Reporter's DPPt Seed Finder -> Find Initial Seed by Stats: Lvl 53, 138 HP, 112 Atk, 79 Def, 116 SpA, 92 SpDef, 54 Speed, Hardy, Strong willed. It gives me the Seed AA110260, Seconds: 33, Delay: 598. I click OK and return to the main RNG Reporter screen.
5. I ensure my ID/SID are entered correctly, and they are. 35962 (ID) and 42308 (SID). I do not tick Shiny Only; I am not even trying for a shiny right now, just a nature/gender/ability combo.
6. I select Egg PID (Normal) as my Method. Both prospective parents are from English games.
7. I click Generate. The first good nature I get is on Frame 4: Adamant, 50%: Male (I'm breeding gligars so the 50% applies to them), Ability 0 (Hyper Cutter).
8. I right click and select Calculate Taps. It tells me to do 0 Happiness taps, and 3 Coin Flips.
9. I exit out of the game's Party screen, and move straight to the coin flip app without landing on any other app.
10. I tap it 3 times, for three flips.
11. After the third flip I immediately proceed to Solaceon, and from there to the Daycare reception desk. I store both Gligars from my party.
12. I ride up and down until the old man is holding an egg.
13. I take the egg, and ride up and down to hatch it. The hatched Gligar is as follows: Lonely, Male, Sand Veil - ie. completely not what it should be.
And that's where I'm at.
@Subversion:
Are there weather effects such as sandstorm at the area you are catching the Camerupt? According to the guide, "It is important that there are no weather effects in the area where you plan to capture the Pokémon, as this will make it impossible to hatch a shiny Pokémon."
If it's not because of the weather, I don't really see anything else you're doing wrongly.

No weather, not any in-battle weather anyway. I'm on Route 227, south of Stark Mountain, which does have a falling soot effect in the field... but this is where I RNG'd for my other shinies so I know that isn't having any effect.
Do it at the top of Resort Area instead.
I'm failing helplessly..
My seed is B9000288
Delay is 638
Time is 00:30:29 on 09-14-2010.
When inputting the roamers, in the top of the Adjacent Finder screen, do you have to change it for every fail? Because I've done it 20 times without changing the roamers in the top screen, and my Elm responses don't match anything, I have -/+ delays set to 99 and -/+ seconds to 5.
Help? :(
Oh yeah, I'm trying to get a shiny egg in SS.

Question- Have you met the requirements on HGSS?
Watch this-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El5VZ2OMEPU
I suggest killing the roamers, cause they really confused me >.< If you don't understand this, read Riski's guide in her shop.
What requirements do you mean?
Have you been to Kanto, hatched and showed professor elm your togepi, and aquired active pokerus and showed it to a nurse in the pokemon center?
Without those your elm calls will come out wrong.
And when you have roamers out, you have to put them in first-as in you check their locations when you turn your game on and then your calls.
Yes, I do have all of that done. I'm just confused by the roamers, I'm gonna kill then and then see what'll happen, thanks :)
Yeah the roamers are confusing to me. I killed mine off and I found out I hadn't had pokerus yet on the game, and now I'm getting really close delays.
Also, I'm wondering if you use pikatimer? If you still don't get a close delay, you should watch the video as it helps alot ^^
Yes, I am using Pikatimer, and I killed off the roamers. And still, I didn't get any viable Elm Responses.
Looks like I'll be quitting this thing soon.
Recheck everything: the date and time on your DS compared to the date and time you chose on Seed to Time. Make sure you have the right seed up there in Seed to Time. Verify that you're resetting your game correctly to get into the game at the right time.
Your time is 29seconds? Why'd you pick that time? Just curious, it doesn't really matter. Set your DS clock to 00:29 EVERY time you redo the RNG process.
Have you calibrated or are you just entering in random stuff in that area in pikatimer? You need to get pretty decent calibrated results for delay and seconds before really attempting to RNG for the first time.
The roamers are actually USEFUL in RNGing. They allow you to verify your delay much faster than elm calls. The first time you save you check their locations and enter it into the necessary fields. You won't have to do this again for the entire process.
Don't quit. RNGing is worth it once you figure it out ^^
Em, that time was the only one in the delay range I entered that gave an odd frame below 5, so that's what pushed me into that time. I have calibrated, my range is 487-575, after catching 20 Ho-Oh. I hit 29 seconds most of the time, so that's what made me do that.
Your calibration is definitely not correct. Without AR, you should have gotten around 12 to 13 seconds. With AR around 15 to 16. Your delays should have stayed in a narrow range around 490 (plus or minus 10). You most likely need to learn to reset your clock and start your game properly.
You should use 13 for calibrated seconds, 494 for calibrated delay. Use any seconds you want for wanted seconds (whatever lowers Pikatimer's first timer down to 35 seconds) and for wanted delays aim for anything above 494. Bakus is correct in saying that a higher wanted delay saves you from button mashing. Just make sure that the wanted seconds and delays you use in Pikatimer match the wanted seconds and delay you use in RNG Reporter.
Edit: And that's a great job on getting your calibration narrowed down. You should be able to RNG and get matching Elm responses now.
