@Lux:
I'm not sure I've fully followed, but if you mean change the delay, but leave the flips / elm calls alone, then yes.
If you advance or decline the year it will decrease or increase the delay respectively.
e.g.
Say you're trying to hit a delay of 690 in the year 2010.
If you change the desired year to 2011; everything other than the delay will remain the same, and the delay will decrease by 1, i.e. be 689.
If you change the desired year to 2044; everything other than the delay will remain the same, and the delay will decrease by 34, i.e. be 656.
Not sure if that's what you're asking though.

What does this mean?
Ok, so I've adjusted Pikatimer and I'm getting closer to the delay I want. But my frames are still not advancing... I'm curious as to why this is happening.
How do I know what Delay I hit? Because if I don't know what delay, I can't enter it into Other Delay!
I am doing HGSS, and how do I match them up?
It is, just make sure you switch the seed to time window to the hgss radio button.
But how do I "Match Them Up?"
EDIT: Do I set the "Delay" to +99, -99 and so every single possible Elm combination will be there, so when I use the "Elm Generate" thingy it will find a match and I will look at the delay and enter that in?

Call Elm 9 times, write down each result. Then search for your combo in the Seed to Time window.
Yes and yes
It does, and that's what I'm doing. But for some reason, I'm doing something wrong that I can't find out about.
Something has also caused a problem for my DS. I was able to synchronize my clock the way it was before to RNG properly, but I did a 60 second test a few moments ago and my clock seems to be off by 1.3 seconds or so, but I can't tell exactly what. So I started to experiment with it a bit, and synchronize Pikatimer with my clock, and after about two hours of adding a second, subtracting a second, etc, I still can't hit anywhere near my seed, and I don't know what's wrong. I might be out of RNG commission for a bit, unfortunately. :(
NPC movement depends on the current seed. You probably have a seed that makes them totally unmoving so you can't get the frame you want.
Choose a new seed.
I will, thanks for the info Kaph.
can someone help me please??? how do I RNG stationary lengendaries like zapdos?
You hit your seed, advance the frames to minus 1 of the target. So if you're going for frame 20, advance to frame 19, than talk to Zapdos. Pretty much all there is to it.
Edit: Yay! 600 POSTS FOR ME! :D!
nice, im planning to rng moltres and mewtwo since i haven't caught them yet. if i'd known this earlier and able to hit consistently me delays, i would have a suicune hp electric on a pokeball now. D:
