I checked and you are not matching either normal or international. This means your seed is wrong. You have something typed in wrong somewhere like I said earlier.
I don't care. Read what I type better. You are putting something wrong for your seed. Maybe the time or the date. Or maybe its the IVs for the pokemon. Are you using an AR IV code or a IV calc? That seed doesn't get those pokemon natures. You did get those 5 after you restarted the game without doing anything correct?
Instead of using metalkids IV calc, use Find Initial Seed by Stats to find the initial seed in RNG reporter. Go catch a level 50 pokemon, put that stats in, then go hatch 5 eggs, or you can do it in the other order. Hatch 5 eggs, then catch lvl 50 poke.
By "used" you do mean found, right?
What monster, where are you catching this, and what level? It's on a really high frame for you to have caught it as soon as you entered the game. Also, what game are you in? It might be nice to use the hidden power guy to verify that you did not get the IVs wrong and that one just happened to match (unlikely, but might as well rule everything out).
A level 50 Hippowdon that I rare candied to get exact IVs.
I'm on Platinum. Here's the new results:

Ok you didn't match either list. So i have 2 questions left for you, because you are still making a mistake somewhere.
1. Are you using an everstone?
2. Turn on your ds, check the ds date and time, and verify in RNG reporter that the two are the same.
No clue what you are doing wrong then. Somehow, you may be advancing the egg RNG without knowing it. Do you have the 6th app on the poketech open by any chance? Other than that, you are SOL, just like Latiosmaster. The 2 people who can't get it to work.
I'm still a bit confused to how the delay works. Does it work by frames, by seconds, by the DS clock, it's just not clicking on how to set it and stuff.

There is a picture diagram that is listen in the first post. It is how long you go from when the game loads till you hit continue.
Do you have the happiness checker application open? If not, then I really have no idea. It really looks like you have the correct initial seed.
The only thing that is really bothering me are the weirdly high frames for the monster. WHERE ARE YOU CATCHING YOUR MONSTER? In the game, not which game. Are you using a synchronizer, and if so, what nature?
Are you using an action replay (does not seem like it, but lets eliminate that as a cause)
For Method J you are landing on frame 82. That is high. Even with NPCs wandering around and no sweet scent it should be lower... Much lower.

Nope. None...
This is news to me. How?
What order exacly are you doing things in?
I suggest the following:
Save on route 228 or similar.
Start the game and immediately catch something around level 50. Put the numbers into RNG reporter's seed from stats function.
Go to Solaceon town and collect the first egg, note that it will be wrong if the daycare man was already holding the egg when you started the game because the nature/ability/gender were generated before you saved.
Try to match the results from the second egg onwards.
EDIT: @ mingot: I haven't done a formal test, but I observed the effect when I was trying to RNG a Shaymin (the Flower Paradise one). I had my timid synchroniser in the fifth slot because I was doing some method 1 test runs to confirm the technique produced the expected results, but every test gave me the wrong spread. I checked afterward on method J with a timid synchroniser and noticed many of the spreads I was getting earlier now matched the test frames I was aiming for. I guess this warrants further research.
