what are you supposed to fill in for the delay?

and as for seconds, really? how do you guys know exactly what second you're on?

For IV breeding, I posted a small guide a few pages back.
You need to find the the delay you get the most, and use that one.

As for the seconds, synch your DS's time to your PC's time, and use the PC clock to see on what second your DS is =)

Remember, you can't wait in the continue screen untill it reaches the right second, or the delay will be far off.
You need to start the game as fast as you can, AND press A on continue at the time RNG Reporter gives you (Indeed, down to the second).
 
Correct about going through as fast as you can.

Basically there are four variables when you are working on egg IVs:

Parents in daycare (easily controlled)
Time on DS during continue (easily controlled)
Delay on continue (fairly easy to target +/- 5)
Offset (fairly easy to target +/- 1)

It's controlling them all at the same time that is tricky.

For the Time/Delay what you want to do is, starting from :00 (:ss) on your DS to advance through the start screen as quickly as possible and note your starting seconds by finding an initial seed (through monster capture) and then taking this number of seconds and setting it as the seconds where you search for particular spread on the time finder.

This lets you reset your DS at :00 (:ss) and get the same result for the time variable each time.

For delay you're really going to have go get lucky, but if you target a spread on a delay that is within your normal range (which, again, you can find by running some tests on finding your initial seed going through the start screens as fast as possible) you should be able to repeat it after a certain number of tries.

Offset is a bit trickier, but Jonny is working on some methods to lock this in to take it out of the equation. For now assume you will be +/- 1 from your target. You can find the delay of an egg you collected to see what you normally hit by collecting and egg and then catching a pokemon for the initial seed. Select "Breeding (DPPt)" and generate. You should be able to pick out the spread you got on the egg from there.

ALSO: One you are in the process of working on this you should right click your spread in the time finder and pick the option to generate Adjacent frames. This will generate a list of "nearby" spreads and should be helpful for finding out what you actually DID hit. This can then be used to adjust your tapping to try to hit final.

That's all from me on this until there is a full guide out for it.
 
Doing the SRing for a perfect egg isn't that hard as I thought it would be. I would have got my shiny egg with 30/31/31/x/31/31 but I forgot to change my time from 17:03 to 7:03.
 
I have a question
When SRIng for an egg you do the taps, then put the parents in, bike around for an egg
Save the game and shut it off
Hatch Egg
Shiny?
 
You save the game after he gets an egg so you can SR for good IVs. You don't have to turn it off if you just want a shiny egg regardless of IVs. You probably should check the egg if it's shiny after you save and check the IVs, if bad, reset the game.
 
hi..
im trying this now after i got my shiny magikarp .
but everytime that im sure im doing everything right idont get a shiny .
dunno whats the problem ?
 
Do you have your ID/SID wrong?

If you are using RNGReporter and one has a 0 at the beginning, you do not include the 0 when inputting it. Just leave it as only 4 numbers.
 
@Latiosmaster: I got both frame 22 and 5 once =p

@mingot: It still doesn't seem to be very hard when you know your average delay/offset. I'll try later today, thanks for clearing up some points =)

@Lightningfusion: Having the parents in the daycare before you start tapping doesn't affect anything, unless they have created an egg already. I always keep my Ditto in there =)

Here is a tip to try, but may not be helpful.

When you look for a spread and time, try to find one with the same exact time and date with close delays. I found one with delay 624 and 627 before. This makes it more likely to work because you can hit 2 delays.
 
okay i have tried this about 10 times and about to break my DS into three do i have to soft resest or can i just turn off the game.


EDIT:and my delays and offsets are always to high
 
Does it matter that my SID is only 4 characters long?

Meh, I still don't see what I'm doing wrong, Is anyone willing to help? If so please Pm me :)

Yeah me either, i am trying to go through each step carefully. Like the first time i read through i did not notice that hours were from 0-23, then i realized mins were also 0-59.
