Using method 1 for some reason, FML. Will update you with my next attempt.
0. No, I don't own an AR or NDS Adapter Plus.
1a. Two
1b. Raikou and Entei. I don't really remember the routes because I haven't attempted it in a day or so.
1c. 6/25/2010 20:10:50
2. You mean one step away from the little ramp that starts the automatic animation, right?
3. I use EonTimer and I can hit high delays, but this delay is only 639.
4. Cart
ok as it stand right know, your frame will advance by twoRaikou is on Route 31 and Entei is on Route 34.
Seed is always 0 in Emerald (un)fortunately.
Hockey: You're not advancing because 20:10 falls in between the hours 8-9 which is Buenas Password which does not advance your frame. So you can either sit and wait for an hour till Pokemon Search Party starts.
Or you can also choose a new time.
In HGSS, you don't need Pokerus. Juggler Irwin calls do the same thing as elm.THIS IS FOR DPPt, specifically Platinum
Here, is my problem. I'm at that last stage. I got the nature and ability all set from the RNG. I did 8 trail runs to see what frame I was on and it was 6. My target frame was 18, so I did the following calculation in doing flips in my journal: (18-6)/2=6 flips.
Now, I know you have to flip to a page where you have killed or caught a Pokemon. I have been just flipping back and forth to a page where I caught a Pokemon and a page where nothing happened--hitting that page with the caught Pokemon 6 times. And yes, the page starts with the caught Pokemon recorded and I counted it as one of my 6 flips.
So, I set the time 1 minute before it says on the chart and start a stopwatch as soon as I start the time on the DS. Also, set the date. Wait till the 59th second. Smash A to the journal. Do my flips. Press start and smash A as fast as possible.
I use an AR that calculates IV's by pressing start+select in the summary section and then the IV's appear in the stat section in the Pokemon's summary. I also use a quick egg hatch cheat, where my egg hatches in few steps. These cheats didn't harm the first part when getting the ability and nature.
I am not landing on the spread at all, I even widened it to a huge state.
What am I doing wrong here?
EDIT: I used a newer AR strategy. I used the cheat to fill my bags with all the TM's so I can calculate IV's by TM. This way, I am able to calculate IV's of an egg before it hatches. I did this and found myself on the spread and missed the correct delay.
So, the question is; do IV's change if you hatch the egg using a cheat that hatches the egg quickly and then check the IV's by looking at them in the Pokemon's summary?
EDIT 2:: I've been doing the calibration phase but cannot land on the same delay so far (have done it 5 times). My seconds are quite consistent, but the delay--which matters is never the same. Is this the hardest game to RNG? Should I beat HeartGold and RNG there--is it a lot easier?
The reason I am not doing BW is because I haven't beaten a second Pokemon GEN V game, because I use Game Sync. Also, I need to breed a Tyranitar with SuperPower and Stealth Rock--which is only teachable in GEN IV.
Ugh, I was looking at HGSS RNG videos, and they say you need Pokerus, which I don' have.
EDIT 3 (When will he stop editing?): So, I searched for seeds 7 times, and got the same delay as another seed previously. Is this what you guys do sometimes, try about 7+ times to get the right delay. Also, let's still note my initial post before the billions of edits, am I doing everything right?
For delay calibrations and doing the actual egg iv abuse, you can really use an AR because the AR loads different from the game.
You dont need pokerus for hgss just need to fight irwin on rt 30 something (31 33 or 35) the one close to the below the ghost town maybe route 34. Defeat him and get his number, it work just like elm just easier to access
Hello! I had a question about HGSS RNG. Will there be a future update that will make Breeding RNG work in the RNG Reporter, or has it been working normally for you guys in 9.81? Thanks again!!
Early game Roamers are Entei and Raikou(Suicune isn't a roamer), later once you reach Kanto one of the Lati twins will also start to roam after doing the Magnet Train quest.
Also you can RNG with Roamers, especially eggs(I've done it for a while and it never hindered me).
Every time you see a page with Captured/Defeated on the journal that counts a flip. So if your journal opens to the starting page that says one of those it counts as a flip.
EDIT: You can RNG with AR, it's just a matter of figuring out how much it changes your calibrated delay.
Thanks, that answers all my questions.
However, I didn't complete the Magnet Train quest so Latios/Latias won't be roaming, correct?
Also, concerning roamers in HGSS, bearsfan says you must kill them all. Is bearsfans videos not reliable in this case? Are there any other links to videos you can provide to me?
Here's the beginning of his video for breeding for IV's in eggs in HGSS: http://www.youtube.com/user/bearsfan092drums#p/u/6/El5VZ2OMEPU -- go to 26 seconds to see the "Prerequisites." Does bearsfan's methods agree with you because I am hearing some contradictions--especially kill the roamers. When you were talking about killing the roamers, were you refereeing to DPPt? And if you were referring to DPPt, that makes bearsfan video prereq's correct (possibly), making it hard for me since I have no Pokerus.
Thanks a lot, by the way. You have been a GREAT help.

There's more, but these are the ones that fit your specifics. There's a Timid flawless under 4000, but it's like 3900 something.
Do you use PokeRNG to search for seeds? If not, dl it. It's on the first page of this thread. :]
Thanks for the reply :) I think I tried this seed already. (yeah I have pokeRNG). the thing is, on frame 40 (for the first one for example), in the RNG reporter main window, when I change the sync nature, frame 40 remains as a modest nature (sync doesnt affect it). now when I look at frame 22 (which is what pokeRNG tells us for sync nature) it has the completely wrong IVs (not flawless) this is what gets me confused :(
