    • In RNGing an Event Pokemon with set IVs, do I add the set IVs to the search? For example the Movie Mewtwo, in searching for a seed, do I put 31 in Sp.Att. and Speed?

    • Haven't posted here in a long while x.x

    Hmm, I'm not too sure. I've never RNGed an Event Pokemon with set IVs before.

    Did these three recently, first 2 are obviously botched but I love 'em anyways :)

    I'm sorry if I'm spamming but does the method work on a 3DS XL?(Not a regular 3DS)
    I seem to have problems...

    • It works. You have to hit A to enter the game 7-8 seconds before what RNG reporter tells you, though. Because that's how long the 3DS and 3DS XL take to load the game.

    Yup yup, planning to finally get around to RNGing all natures :) Might not have enough time though, seeing as how Bank is out soon and I'm lazy and won't be home or available to RNG a lot x.x

    • Well, I finally got around to learning RNG abuse on Gen IV games. First thing I did was ID abuse my copy of HG and SS so I could have some nice shiny spreads for the legendaries that I wanted to catch in each game. Haven't fully beaten my HG atm so I haven't been able to RNG on it, but I did manage to RNG these on my SS! :D

    • Come to the dark side EV! I'm so glad I learned how to RNG on Gen IV. I'm planning to give Gen IV breeding a try tonight, hopefully it'll work out as nicely as those stationary RNGs i've done. :P

    Here's a little preview of my upcoming RNGing.... Here is a little glimpse into just how full my Entree Forrest is... THis is my White 2 cart.... Black 2 is just as full... I have quite a bit fewer on my B/W carts...

    • So I hit my seed twice this morning, one of which was my target. FINALLY. But then I realized it didn't have its hidden ability. I was dumb and used a male HA parent. Look what gen VI has done to me.

    So I swap the parent with a female HA parent, no problem. Same IVs and all so I just use the same seed and I try that about three times and can't hit it. Search for new seeds and can't hit these either. I don't know WHAT I did differently this morning that got me to hit them, but I can't do it now. I honestly don't know what the hell I'm doing wrong and this is getting really annoying. About to throw my DS out the window.
