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

Ugh... Those chatot pitches are so troll. The things that sound like lows are actually mediums, etc.
And the time finder is slowly killing me computer...:P

They're not that bad, pay attention to the numbers more as they give it away easier. The higher the number, the higher the pitch.

Oi, quick question, is the new version of RNG Reporter compatible with a Windows 8 OS? Or is it strictly the Windows 7 OS, nothing more, nothing less?

[Nikator]

Hi all, i'm clearly a bit rusty after all this time and am having a bit of trouble with a breed. Can anyone spot what i'm doing wrong, I can't seem to pin my SSF at all. Here's the parents i'm using and screenshots of RNG Reporter:

Father: https://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=3490758
Mother: https://www.pokecheck.org/?pk=3258823

I'm aiming for a 30/30/31/30/30/30 shiny Eevee with Dream world ability. Everstone is on the father (Jolteon):

[KuzKan]

The everstone gotta be holded by the mother, not the father,
A while ago i equipped it to the father by mistake and it drove me crazy cuz i thought i couldnt hit my seed or was misscounting the pitches and as soon as i changed the holder i got the right egg right away

[Nikator]

Thanks, I've been driving myself crazy but didn't want to read every tutorial and start RNG'ing from scratch again!

False. Everstone can be held by either parent from HG/SS onwards.

[Nikator]

Yeah i'm still having no luck. Is it definitely International breeding? Though the Jolteon is italian owned its name is the same.

[KuzKan]

False. Everstone can be held by either parent from HG/SS onwards.

Yeah but he wants to pass down the DW ability, iirc it needs to be held by the mother
Either way i just thought it could be the case since that happened to me and when i did that it worked...

[Nikator]

Never mind, got it! Assume I was just being an idiot. Maybe i'd better go back and check my Timer0 isn't fluctuating..

[Agonist]

It doesn't matter at all.

I am reposting this due to the fairly many people simply ignoring a damsel in distress lol XD jk, but yeah, please don't ignore me. I'm so lonely XD jk.

If it's compatible with W7, why wouldn't it be compatible with W8?

[Kanethedragon]

Yeah I know, it does sound kinda dumb, just asking because I want to be sure.

I use it on Windows 8.

[Kanethedragon]

I use it on Windows 8.

Okay thanks. That's all I really needed to know.

Hello, I'have been trying to do some rng with black 1 and black 2. For the first one, i got my timer0 in like 3 times and i tested it with random encounter and it worked.
But for BW2 i can't get one, i've been resetting the game more than 50 times, different zones with no npc but i get like more than 15 differents timer0, some with 1s delay, 3s delay and even 9s delay. i'm always starting the game the same second.
Isn't there a way to find the right one?
Also, why is that high level pokemon like level 55 Sawsbuck in dragonspiral tower never gives a seed ? I wanted to find high level pokemon to reduce the number of seeds but they never give one.
What's the best place to sweet scent to get a good seed?

thanks

Aargh why is Entralink RNGing so damn frustrating. Trying to RNG one of the Arceus I picked up in the event ages ago. Found myself a lovely seed, have got my EONTimer set up perfectly, I can hit the correct second every time. But I keep missing my frame by one or two every time.
I actually did hit it once but the nature was useless, then the next time got a decent nature (Jolly) but missed it by one frame!!!
I heard Entralink RNG is easier on BW2? Just a pity I couldn't pick the Arceus up on there.

I haven't done Entralink abuse myself (I plan on it when I have nothing better to RNG) I would aim for a seed that has your desired nature in clusters. For instance, aim for a seed that has Adamant (I assume) more than 4 frames in a row (When I was looking into entralink seeds I found some seeds that had clusters of as many as 10), and aim for a frame that corresponds to whether you go over or under your target frame more frequently.

Unfortunately it doesn't actually work like that. You can only determine your IV's when doing Entralink RNGing. The natures are completely random, you can hit the exact same frame 12 times and get 12 different natures.

Natures have been RNGable for a long time now. It's considerably complex. I believe this is the guide I used. Prepare for frustration and many failed attempts. Once you've got the hang of it, though, it's only slightly more challenging than normal Gen V abuse.
