Most Generation PRNG Help / Information

Hahaha, very funny. I'm wondering if it'll be like Turnback Cave Giratina, where I just do 128 steps or if I can just use the IV's listed for the Wondercard HP Fire.
Will I need to bring 1 Poke with me?:
It's just like any other legend. Use a syncher, and I usually bring a total of 5 in case I need to do some walking before encountering it.
 
Yes, they sure can, but you are going to have to input the seed, generate as method, and see if the nature is worth a damn. In some cases it will be, in most cases it won't be.

What I suggest you do, if you are looking for method 1 spreads, is to use the method 1 spreadsheets, though, as that is what they are meant for. And they contain all of the necesary information. Basically, don't try to use a screwdriver to hammer nails here.

This is what Mingot replied with when I asked if those spreads work for Roamers. I believe the same goes for the Stationary Legendaries
 
So that's a basic yes? Or should I just use the IV's listed alone to find the right spread that has the nature and Hidden Power I want along w/the Max IV in speed for the obvious reason?
 
I'm using Sephirona's guide to Emloop... I'm aiming for a delay of 715 and I keep getting delays in the 730's... should I subtract 2 as she mentions in the guide, or subtract more/less than that?

When that happens I normally would subtract 15 and do the math all over again.

You could use it, but the nature will probably be different from what you are going for. But in cases like these you would use the spreadsheets located on the 1st page
 
Subtract 15 from the number in the "Frame" box (target frame - usual frame)?

EDIT: I did that, redid the math, reset pretty accurately, and still ended up with a delay of 737 :/...
Keep trying. It takes practice. If you are consistently off by the same amount, adjust it again.
 
Ok, so I used the spreadsheet to find the seed I wanted (a114028d; side note, there's 2 SpD listings).
But, anyways, what do I do next? Do the "Seed To Times" to find the time I want to use, right?

Yes just copy paste your seed into the Seed to Times and it'll give you a range of Time and Delay.
 
Hi guys,

I know your obviously sick of hearing this, but I'm new to this whole concept.

I originally wanted to try it a while back, but had no way to due to never encountering a 1 in 8120 shiny, but now I have discovered it is possible with chained shinies.

I have looked through the first page's article and there is no information on how to get your SID using this method.

Could someone please advise?
 
Question about trophy garden daily pokemon, I see in the encounter chart on the front page that there is a slot for current and previous. Since I only have frame 7 available for my spread, does that mean I need to attempt my encounter the day after Mr. Backlot puts my target (porygon) in the garden? I've always used the current slot, but cannot for this particular spread. I guess I would just like someone to clarify current and previous, and whether or not there is a way to get around waiting an entire day to encounter a porygon.

Edit: Never mind, figured it out.
 
Step 1

You will want to prepare by doing the following:

1. Have a party of five Pokémon.
2. Have compatible parents at the ready but NOT in the daycare.
3. Be standing near or on a place Pokémon of level 50 or higher may be captured.
4. Have the Pokétch application showing the app before the Happiness Checker application. This is important, as if you go through this with the Happiness Checker showing you will not get the expected results.
5. Save your game.

When it says have the APP before the Happyness Checker it means the Itemfinder APP?

It doesn't matter which, it just has to be whichever is right before it, so you can hit the button and switch to it.
 
Guys, isn't there anything emloop-like for DPPt? Tuesday I was able to hit all my times and delays but since then I've ben getting the crazier times/delays!

Do you have an GBA Pokemon Cartridge inserted?
If so it can give you odd delays.
 
My delays were always even, for some reason or another.

The problem is that I do the synchronizing very carefully and my button-smashing is very consistent because I do it in sync with the beat of a song, but in one reset it was second 6 delay 650 and the other it was second 17 delay 608 and I was aiming for second 14 delay 632, which I hit very easily and regularly Tuesday (12 times in a row - 4 perfect shiny pokemon), using the same song.

Well your initial question was is there an emloop for DPPt? Yes it's on the front page, 5th o 4th post, but you need to know how long it take for your DS game to come on after clicking on DPPt on your DS menu/Action Replay menu (when the white screen becomes black screen).

You can either
-Turn your starting time into a delay and add it to the delay your aiming for
-Convert your wanted delay into seconds and add it to the time that it takes for your DS game to start, then enter it in the timer. (uncertain if it works well, never tried it)

EDIT:
Syberia's Post says-
''For example, say I was aiming for a delay of 767 (the number in the red box).
Let's also say the delay I got when I checked my seed was 663.
That's a difference of 104 (767-663=104).
In other words, my game took the equivalent of 104 frames to load.
To adjust, I'd simply add that time to my original delay.
The new number I'd enter into the red box is 871 (767+104=871).''

Sphirona's
''First, I took the extra delay value I needed - in my case, I needed 646 and my normal value is usually 600, so 46 - and put that into the Frames box. That gave me .76 seconds after converting.

Then, I subtracted 14 from my target 59 seconds - that made 45 seconds.

Since I need to wait the extra .76 seconds at the continue screen, I subtracted .76 from 45 and got 44.24. I put this in the pre-seconds counting box. Then, I added 14 to the .76 and used that for my countdown instead. Now, with the second part of the timer, I proceed to the continue screen as usual, except in this case, it gives me a visual approximation for when I should press A - right as 14.76 seconds finishes. This way, I still hit 59 seconds, while satisfying the longer time period I needed to stay at the continue screen to hit my delay.

However, I realized that by doing this, my delay range was still a little lower than I wanted. So I added 2 to what I put into the Frames Box and got .80 seconds. I went back and did all the math, so that I would still be hitting A at exactly 59 seconds, but that I would be waiting a split second longer at the Continue screen - which would raise my delay a tiny bit. The picture of the Emloop Timer provided is what my final interface looked like when I started reseting again - and got my Pokemon. :0

Good luck, everyone! Remember, we're not machines, so don't worry if it takes a bit more practice to reset and press A at exactly 00:00:00.

I don't use the preset timer so I do it a little it differently, id go with Syberia or Sephirona's
 
Thank you, I'll go try it.
I just updated my post with Syberia and Sephirona method, I think they'll work better then the first two I suggested.
And I don't use the pre-reset timer since it doesn't work well for me. (I can't soft reset properly)
