Well, the user clearly lists every IV as 31 in that post, so I think it's safe to say he/she meant hex-flawless.

 

[pokefreak12]

Yep, exactly the same steps. Just make sure you are set to method 1 on the rng reporter.


Method 1. The dratini can't be hexflawless and adamant but it can get 31/31/31/x/31/31 which is essentially flawless in my opinion.

Ok, then I have a problem, say I want to catch a Gastly in the Old Chateau, but I read up on whenever you are in an area with a wild pokemon, the RNG advances, so how will I be able to hit my seed and land on the right frame?

It only advances if you move, once for a single turn or step forward.

I know that, but how can you hit your frame, say if I had a frame of 79 and I am doing Method 1 RNG?

Gastly is Method J in the Old Chateau. You would move one step forward and do 39 journal flips to get to your frame. (assuming you have no roamers.)

It wasn't method 1?

 

[flash]

It wasn't method 1?

It isn't. Method one Pokemon are either gift pokemon or roamers. All other wild pokemon are method j. It is explained here.

So roamers are Mesprit or Cresselia?

 

[riddlinkid]

Sweet scent advances 2. You would do 1 single turn, 38 journal flips, then sweet scent.

Thanks.

Oh right, I got confused when he talked about both Method 1 and J. =/

So roamers are Mesprit or Cresselia?

Yeah, they include the birds too if you're playing platinum.

Alright, thank you both.

EDIT: If I have an even frame, does that mean I have to do 128 steps before entering the Old Chateau?

 

[riddlinkid]

You should be saving inside, in a place where you can sweet scent and catch a gastly (I believe anywhere except the first tile you are on when you enter). If it has an even frame, say 80, you would do 39 journal flips and then sweet scent, no turns or steps necessary.

I started rnging in hg ss on egg and ivs. When i go and check to verify what i hit using elm calls i can't find it in the list. how am i supposed to know where i landed on?

Are you hitting on your second within 99+/- of the delay?
You might be hitting wayyy off and so the matches don't show.

uhm sorry, what do you mean by within 99+/- of the delay? Yeah i guess im hitting way off, but how can i compensate for that?

 

[Winters Zombie]

You know when you search for the delays it says
Delays: - [Minus box] + [Plus Box]

Here just look, it's inside the blue box.

Hide

and to compensate, either hit A faster or do your Pikatimer different.

 

[Mackenzie]

ok so you mean to say i adjust the 10 in the (-/+) to both 99s?

 

[Winters Zombie]

ok so you mean to say i adjust the 10 in the (-/+) to both 99s?

Yeah, so you have a wide amount of different delays you could have hit, and than try and seeing what seed you hit.

ok thank you very much for the quick replies and yes ill try your advice.

 

[Winters Zombie]

ok thank you very much for the quick replies and yes ill try your advice.

Your welcome, if you still don't find matches, trying the next boxes over and try adding a second to either side +/- to see if you're missing your second all together.
Good luck ^_^

When you're trying to RNG abuse your ID/SID, we have to hit the delay between two screens after the new game starts, right?

And this timer (on this link) is what we use to help make sure that we're hitting the right delays, correct?

http://prng.infos.cx/timer.html

If it is, when/where on the game do I start the timer, when I'm ready to start rng abusing my ID and SID so I can get the shiny spread that I'm looking for?

Personally, what I did was I used Pikatimer.
You're going to want to hit a delay of 4000+ otherwise you won't have enough time to do all that is required in order to the ID/SID generation screen.

You should use Pikatimer just like any RNG have a set calibrated delay, wanted delay. Blah blah blah.
What I did was, I used the timer and wait at the last thing Oak says so when I hit it, it does that shrinking thing and going in game. So when the timer hits 0, you hit A from the "let our adventure begin" or whatever the last sentence is.

Than you check what ID/SID combo you got to see what delay you hit, and than adjust Pikatimer a little bit to try and get it closer, and eventually you'll hit the ID/SID you want ^_^

Thanks, Winter. ^^

But one more question. Didn't you guys told me before that using sweet scent while you're riding on a bicycle advances the frame by 1 when you're trying to rng abuse a pokemon from the wild?
