Ok from now on give us the seed and the flips you are actually getting. My calibrated delay for DPPt is 604-606, so most likely your delay was way off. Expand the +/- to 99 and input your flips then.
I have no idea how it could be that far off, but okay. I'll give it a try soon.
The flips I'm supposed to be getting, just for reference, are H, H, H, H, H, H, T, T, T, T.
Already starting to miss how much more streamlined RNG'ing is for HG/SS.
[edit] All right, I tried it once more, and hit a delay of 2073 with the results H, H, H, H, T, H, T, H, T, T. After making the adjustment in EonTimer and going through it again these are my results: T, H, T, T, H, T, T, H, T, H with a delay of 2130. So I'm pretty sure now that all of those times I simply screwed up the recording of my flips somewhere. Either way, I have no idea how I could possibly be this far off.
[edit2] Just recalibrated. Hit a delay of 2040, T,T,H,H,H,T,T,T,H,H. Wow. Simply amazing how far off you can be in this game. At least I'm within the same second.

Question:
I just pulled up a Shiny Seed for Lugia
Now the big question is, the phone doesn't work in Lugia's actual cave. :( (lovely)
I'd have to go back into the cave, walk some steps, then Surf.
Are there any sneaky RNG advances I need to know of doing this, like going in the door, and surfing?

Well, I need Heatran, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and some wondercard pokes so I really need to get used to this. I'm glad my first attempt requires only a 3 frame advancement before I talk to him on the 4th, so I don't need any special preparation for journal flips. I just need to walk out of the area, turn in any two directions, then go back in to BATTORU!
@Nightmare: Just make your calls in the room right before him. Far as I know, going in there and using surf doesn't advance the frame, but, of course, engaging in battle with Lugia does (by 1).
If you stand right outside lugias cave you can use the pokegear.
Need help on Ruby starters.
I hit my target, got wrong spread, but when I plugged it into RNG Reporter 9.94 alpha, methods 1, 2, and 4 all yielded no results.
Target Spread: 31/30/31/24/30/0 (Brave)
Target Frame: 303092
Spread Received: 27/9/8/13/15/1 (Bashful)
Any help?

Any help?
Just never ends. I found that suddenly, for some reason, I was hitting even delays, because twice in a row I hit 2084 when my target was 2083. So then when I switched to a delay of 2084, I tried it again and hit 2083! I don't know what this game's deal is, but it's kinda pissing me off. It shouldn't be able to switch between even and odd delays on a whim, especially when hitting either or becomes mutually exclusive.
Cart or rom?
If cart is it dead battery, because I see the seed in 9.93 and the frame you hit is not even in 5m of available spread with seed 5a0.
Rom, dead battery. Running turbo speed, so 5 minutes = less then a minute.
No, there are no sneaky RNG advances unless you trigger the 128 steps, which likely won't happen. You can stand right outside the door and advance the frame normally, then walk in/surf/talk to Lugia.
Maybe Hozu and GB will be able to help in this case.
Sorry but I only rng on retail
But there really should not be problem?
Edit emu might be causing something to happen, that frame you hit is not even in 50mil in all methods
@above
frame may/not advance by 1 when entering lugia cave. I think it varied on my hg/ss
Encounter slots determine what Pokémon you encounter in a wild battle, they don't matter at all for Lugia.
This should help. The encounter slot of a frame determines which wild Pokemon will appear in each area when Sweet Scenting.
Simply put, it doesn't matter at all for stationary or gift Pokemon.
edit: fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu
Just got it.
Thanks.
I really got to get better at hitting my delays: Once a half hour won't cut it.

Hello everyone.
I still have problems on platinum RNG abuse on hitting delays for legends.
The problem is that I can't hit my wanted sec.
For example, I hit the time 13:38:50, when I'm supposed to hit the time 13:38:55.
I do hit the right delay or near sometimes but the problem is the second.
Does anyone knows how to fix this please?

^ you have your seconds at +/- 5 don't you :(. If you're using a timer(I assume you are) then just set the +/- for seconds at 0, reason being is the coin flips are the same for a group of seconds meaning when you search your flips it just gives you the first result(50 seconds).
So good news is you've been hitting your delay with the correct seconds, bad news is because of that little hiccup, you've wasted a lot of time.

Got a question about the Sinjoh Ruins event, since I'm likely using that (coupled with multiple backup saves) to grab competitive-worthy Ubers rather than Platinum.
I've never actually gone through the event in question, but I've read about it on Bulbapedia and know that the generation method is 1. I just need to know at what moment the nature and IV's are decided (hence where to save).
Also, kind of unrelated, is the use of PokeGen to hack the Azure Flute into DPPt frowned upon here, or no? I understand that battling someone here requires that you divulge info on any and all modifications you make to your game, which are agreed on beforehand, but given the engineered scarcity of these event-mons (and the fact that Azure Flute was never released), I doubt anyone is going to argue as long as the stats are legal.
