*Revamped RNG Discussion/Help Thread [Do not ask about Gen 6 RNG]

[The Eleventh]

Hey all, not sure if it's been covered but is it possible to RNG Dream Radar pokemon? As they are put straight in your PC box do they have to be RNG'd on the actual Radar game.
Does anyone have a guide etc? Also can they be shiny?

They can indeed be RNGed. There isn't a guide for RNG Reporter at the moment, since it has yet to be updated with Dream Radar functionality, though there is one available for PPRNG. The process should be largely similar. DR Pokémon cannot be shiny.

Ok thanks, think I'll wait til RNg reporter has been updated and a guide for that is out, I've always been more successful with that than PPRNG.

Hey Shadow_Assailant, perhaps this post by Chiizu can alleviate the parameters issue:

http://www.smogon.com/forums/showpos...55&postcount=4

Ah. Yeah. Sorry for not slashing that post out. I did figure out my problem. Lol. I had once started up and saved the game in order to find my parameters, but I deleted my save data eventually for some reason. Then when I went to try to calibrate my parameters again, I forgot I had to save. I spent almost 2 hours trying to figure out my problem until I realized that I didn't save again. I've since gotten them.

And yeah. I've spent a lot of time on Smogon. If you look at the main PPRNG thread and at the most recent posts, you can see me commenting up a storm. I'm probably not on Chiizu's good side right now. Lol.

Is PPRNG a Mac only program? And if it is, is there a Windows equivalent that can be used for RNGing Dream Radar Pokemon?

PPRNG is Mac only but the function for RNGing Dream Radar pokemon for RNG Reporter (Windows) isn't out yet.

Slash mentioned that he would be tackling Dream Radar abuse next. Since Chiizu has already looked into it quite a bit and even programmed it into PPRNG, as well as written a guide on how to go about doing this kind of abuse, it probably won't take Slash to long at all to get it into RNGR and released. I know that Slash just started classes, and VGC season is starting up again too, which will slow him down a bit, but it still probably won't take very long at all.

I hope it doesn't take long any way, I want to RNG this Tornadus and Thundurus I have sitting on my 3DS. I'm tempted to transfer Landorus over once I unlock it just so I can get the mirror, but I want to RNG all of the DW legends I have. What to do, what to do :/

Don't do it, guy! Don't fall to temptation! The wait is worth it!!!!!!!!!

[TDawg]

So is there a difference between BW1 and BW2 RNG?

[Shadow_Assailant]

So is there a difference between BW1 and BW2 RNG?

Other than Timer0's being more of a pain (though I didn't have much trouble with them in BW1) and breeding being currently broken, not really. Same old, same old.

[TDawg]

Well that's awesome. Thanks Shadow

[Flying Ludo]

Oh man, B/W 2 are already out, and I only RNGed 1 of the 10+ shinies I wanted to for my new in-game teams. The only thing I hate about RNG is that if you don't use it in a while, you forget all about it and almost need to re-learn everything.

So yeah...expect to see me here again soon XD

[Shadow_Assailant]

Yup.

Lol. I know that feeling. I've only recently come back to it with the release of the games. :P I'll be active on here until roughly 5-5:30 CST, so I'll be able to help then. Otherwise, yeah. Lol.

I recently downloaded PPRNG to my new computer and attempted to RNG my Genesect in Black 2. I found my parameters using the Unova Link method (it was 1103-1106), found a good spread and continually tried to obtain it, but every time I did it was never what I wanted. I don't know if I was doing something wrong, or if I didn't find all of my Timer0s. I REALLY want to RNG my Genesect, and now he's just sitting there with the delivery man in the iccirus city pokemon center (is that a good place to do it?)... mocking me....

Can someone please help me?

[insanemouse]

OKAY, first off, I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this question. I am definitely not here enough. I am trying to get two shiny pokemon, nicknamable, with specific genders and possibly natures. It looks like RNG-ing is the way to go. BUT, I barely have enough hours in the day to do what I need to do to stay, um, functional? SO, does anyone know anyone here who RNGs for a service and would be willing to work out a trade? I would be very grateful - even if you can't do it, if you could point me in the right direction, that would be wonderful.

Thanks so much - for reading this and for being patient with me

Let me first say that any Pokémon Center works. Now, to your problem. Are you advancing the PID Frames? I.e., are you using Chatots?

Depending on the severity (how involved) the spread is you're going for, I can nickname and get the spread you want. If I don't have the Pokémon you request, you'll have to send a parent to me. Also, I will have no time at all tomorrow to do it nor Sunday, so you'll have to wait til late Sunday. Otherwise, just search the trading forum and check the threads.

Yup, I'm using 1 chatot.

EDIT: Tried it again today and had success! Well, sort of. I got its IVs right, but it wasn't the nature I was going for. I was going for rash nature, but it ended up naive, which is the next best thing (maybe better). I have another Genesect waiting in my White 2, but that one can wait.

[PowerMiner]

*Clears throat* Hello all. I'm new to this forum, and I was hoping to get some help RNGing in my White 2. I'm trying to RNG Reshiram. (And consequently, Kyurem. And eventually my Genesect.)

I can breed for IVs in White 1, but I'm having trouble with this. I found the parameters for my White 2 cartridge, found 10F3 and 10F5 as my Timer0s. I save in front of Reshiram, hit my seed, do the Chatot screens, but it always seems to come out a different nature. (I never actually checked the IVs, I didn't realize the IV Judge guy was at Nimbasa after you beat the game.)

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Or is it just my Timer0? Am I doing the wrong thing for stationary legendaries? Oh, and with the shiny Haxorus in the Nature Preserve, can you use it to find your SID?

[Shadow_Assailant]

Okay. Well, I'm not really sure of the problem. I'm just gonna have to blame your Timer0's. They a lot meaner in these games than in BW1...

Reshiram Question: The game does not allow you to get Reshiram nor Zekrom shiny, so if that's what you're going for, then you're out of luck... Now, let's say you actually are hitting a non-shiny seed, but the outcome Nature is one frame off of what you're aiming for (i.e. frame 49 is your target, yet you're getting the nature for frame 50), then you need to flip one less time. Meaning, instead of flipping Chatots (let's pretend the starting frame is 19) 30 times, you would flip 29 times. I'll need more information about your process and the seeds and the possible frames you can land on and the frames you actually are landing on to efficiently answer this. It may even be your Timer0's...

Haxorus Question: I would assume the Haxorus's shininess is generated the same way as the Red Gyarados's from HG/SS. So no. What you can do, though, is capture any Pokémon (or use one you've already captured), and go to pokecheck.org (a fake GTS system), and upload a Pokémon to that. Pokecheck will tell you your SID.

[PowerMiner]

I might have had the IVs right, I'll have to try again. Yeah, I know about Reshiram's shiny check. I'll do some work on that.. BTW I'm using an Original DS. Oh, and at one point, one of my adjacent seeds was matching the Chato-*Facepalm* I should have just looked at what frame it was on, and adjusted my chatot flips! Oh, I've done the Memory Link BTW, so I clicked Memory Link (I'm using RNG Reporter 9.96.1)

I'm going for Modest 31/X/31/31/31/31 Reshiram.

Okay, so right now I'm trying for a seed which is: 10F3 Timer0 (My Most Common) 6/8/12 1:53:17 (An easy to hit time) It has 31/0/31/31/31/31 HP Dragon, Frame 106. So I look at my stuff, and the first adjacent seed (That it's automatically on) has the Chatot flips I need. What does this mean? Is it right?

EDIT: Okay, so I hit that seed, and it's Docile Nature.. But I didn't check the IVs.. Oops..
EDIT 2: Alright, I so I can normally predict the Chatots, but it never seems to do the ones from the Main RNG Reporter window (Having pasted the seed, clicked Method and Encounter Type as Gen 5 PIDRNG and Stationary Pokemon) Starting frame is supposedly 48 BTW. What does the Black White 2? option do exactly? Should that be checked?

If you have B2/W2, then you should checked "Black White 2" on a main screen of the RNG Reporter. It'll give you a higher starting frame. Hope this helps!

[PowerMiner]

Thanks, that helped, but.. Instead of having the nature I wanted, it's quiet... Matching the nature showed in the main RNG Reporter window.. Whaat?

What do I do now..?

Did you verify the IV's at all? Odds are high that Timer0 is trolling you. If so, double-check your Chatot flips.

Also, just got done RNGing this on my dry battery Ruby cart.

cool, but post it in the dmp thread instead, as this thread is only for help now.

also, hi Xeno.

[PowerMiner]

No matter when the chatot flips match, they match the nature on the main menu. When it matches, it's always this:

Reshiram - #643 (Quiet)
HP: 20 - 21
Att: 22
Def: 10 - 11
SpA: 8 - 9
SpD: 16 - 17
Speed: 3 - 4

No matter what I do, the main RNG Reporter's Nature is always right if the Chatot sound for flips match, instead of matching the seed I have. I don't understand what to do..

Yeah, it seems Timer0 is trolling you. Just keep trying. Also double-check to make sure you're doing everything right. I assume you did IV's, Standard seed, Frame 1, Stationary right?
