Most Generation PRNG Help / Information

It's possible that the step counter is saved with the game (I know the step counter for hatching eggs is saved) and then reaches 128 almost immediately (within the first 22 steps), advancing by 5. Then you hit 128 again in the remaining steps up to 140. try doing about 30 steps (and the journal flips of course), then catch Cresselia and see if you hit your target.

Confirmed, only did 90 steps and I hit it.
 
Once again i wasn't able to hit the right frame on Giratina.
The steps i did.
Frame 866 i had 5 pokes in my party i walked 128 steps
which gives me 861-1(for Giratina) = 860
then i divided it by 2 and got 430.
I then flip the journal 430 times and ended up with a modest instead of impish.

Did you check to see what frame you landed on? Just check the IV's and Nature of it, and use that to see what frame you hit. Then ajust accordingly. Also, you may have miscounted the flips.
For some reason I seem to get a mix of odd and even delays. Is that normal?
Yeah, it's normal. I've found that with an AR/GBA game in, it usually will stay either even or odd though.
 
Another frame-related problem at breeding:

I'm aiming for seed 16020279, frame 3 or 4, but only 3 or 4. Multiple frame calibrations after re-saving (=> new positions of the NPCs) told me I had frame 5 or 7, although I did take the egg fast. The question: Is it possible to get to frame 3 or 4 by re-saving or is this spread kind of "cursed"?

Thanks.

Why only 3 or 4? There's plenty of good breeding spreads to be found in higher frames, you just have to search for them. It'll be much easier to use journal flips to achieve one of those then to keep resaving and hope for 3 or 4.
 
Okay i started over with a new Frame(751)
So its 751-1(Giratina)= 750/2= 375 flips
i wouldnt have to walk correct?
Because i did that and ended up 22 frame over where i should have been on frame 773. Any clue where im missing up at?
 
My guess is that you just keep miscounting. I suggest bringing up the calculator on the computer, type in the number of flips needed, and subtract one. Then each time you turn a page, press enter. This will help keep count of flips easier.
 
When searching for spreads on Viletung's website, I find results, but the columns confuse me.

What's the offset mean?

Also, when I generate results for a seed in Method J, I get a "Frame" column and an "Actual" column? What do those mean?
 
I have a 4 digit SID. When using the RNG reported, am I supposed to put _#### or ####_ ?

I'm confused, so far I haven't gotten good results with this PRNG project. I've been trying to get shiny eggs. Any type of help would be appreciated. Thanks :(
 
I counted right and ended with the same thing again.
22 more frames but i think i need to subtract 12 flips so i can hit my frame
 
Yeah, it'll go infront. It doesn't matter if you put it or not, since the next time you open up the program, it'll just show the 4.
@NPS: Don't you mean 11 flips? 22/2=11.

It does not matter.

You can enter:

_3333
3333_
03333

They are all the same number.

I need to write a FAQ (that one one will read) and put this in one day.

What seed, what frame? Are you using a syncher?

You've had so many consistant (and incorrect) results that you're probably not miscounting, but just doing something wrong (like targetting a method 1 frame for a method J pokemon).
 
Thanks for the help with the SID, but even after that I can't seem to get a shiny egg. I do everything step by step, and I'm somehow doing something wrong. I need help with this >_<
 
Here, I can double check your SID butter if you want. I just need a pokemon from your game. You may have just mis-typed it in.
