Or should I use other balls? Well, I prefer the Master Ball because I'm tired of catching Legendary Pokemon with other balls (unless if it has an effect that makes the catch rate higher). I already have 12 Master Balls ready for the legendary Pokemon!

Using Master Balls on catch rate 3 legendaries is perfectly understandable, so just really do what you want. :)

Anyway, I just wanted to let everyone know that the challenges are optional... you shouldn't feel compelled to do them. If you are too busy, you don't have to do them. I understand completely. I don't want this pastime to feel like a job to anyone so if you cannot do a challenge, please don't feel down or anything. It's fine. We're here to have fun and I'm not interested in making anyone not have fun. I am open to suggestions for the club at all times (by PM if you'd prefer), so just keep that in mind. Please everyone, remember that this is fun. I apologize to all of you if I have pressured anyone into challenges and I will look towards a future will I will keep a closer eye on things like that.

Good luck and ultimately, have fun, because that's what this club is all about -- fun. :)

Catch rate 3 only? So...for Kyogre, you don't have to do so (its catch rate is 5)? Well, I think I still have to do so. Most legendary Pokemon are a pain in the neck...especially Roaming Legendary Pokemon! And anyways, Legendary Pokemon are pretty much powerful and the Master Ball suits their power...
And about RNG abuse...I understand the basics to doing Wild Pokemon RNG Abuse. It looks simple, but I could never do it right. The reason? Delays. Well, I kinda understand how to operate the timer now, but what you said about letting the timer update itself by inserting the delay you hit instead of the delay you were supposed to hit just got me a problem. How would you identify the delay you hit? If you use the Seed from Stats thing, well, it works...but it's a bit hard. You'd have to go to a location where you can easily catch a Level 50 and more Pokemon...it's hard to do so and I don't like using an AR. And also...in the Hours and Minutes part of the Seed from Stats thing, you'd put the time you started the game (or soft reset the game) into the Hours and Minutes part, right?

Just use Master Balls on anything you want. It's what you want to do, not what everyone else wants to do. You identify the delay you hit by doing a series of 9 or 10 elm calls and using the "Search Elm" feature of Seed to Time. Are you using that?

I did the challenge :3 Bred a Chimchar with 31/31/30/31/30/31, non shiny & male. :3 Chimchar is adorable, more so than most fire types, so it seems appropriate to me to be an entry for this challenge ^^

vaporeon7 March 18th, 2012 1:26 PM

I'd like to join if that's okay~

...I may just be able to RNG a Slugma tonight before the competition ends.

何贤豪 March 19th, 2012 5:29 AM

Alright...and I did do that, but it didn't give me results. It always said No match for ... (I don't remember the rest).
I have done a search with Delay + 100 - 100 to find which delay I hit instead of the one I was supposed to hit...and it still didn't work.

Congratulations! Why don't you try shiny next time? ;)

And yeah, some of you guys probably don't know me, I'm Gonzo from Poland and I'm the new co-owner since... today XD
I'm back from my hiatus to help Mac with new challenges, show you the joy od RNG and to inspire you to explore the depths of RNG abusing. Since English isn't my native language, I'm sorry in advance if it goes bad sometimes ;)
I hope we can have a lot of fun together :D

Cheers and wait for the upcoming new challenge I prepared for you! :)

Thank you! And yes..it'll be Jolteon. I'm pretty excited about this one. My next abuse will be another Eevee, but with a different HP. Gonna go for a Glaceon.

Thank you. I'm not a big fan of the shiny sprite for Jolteon...but my next Eevee will be shiny for sure. Gonna go for a Glaceon, and I love the shiny sprite for Glaceon.

6h to end the current challenge :)

Cordelia March 19th, 2012 3:17 PM

Nice RNGs Rednael! I really need to do a Leafeon like that ^^ I am jealous :D

RingoH March 19th, 2012 6:06 PM

Hi All!!

Favorite Fire was a little tough. I thought about trying to go for Moltres on my SS but I'm not really ready to try those birds just yet...

I decided to go with my favorite fire by look alone. I think the shiny Rapidash with blue for its manes is the single prettiest shiny fire Pokemon. So going purely on one I find pretty I aimed for a male jolly shiny. (egg breeding in diamond)

I got my shiny male jolly. But when I went for my stats..
I was excited when it was a mischievous characteristic and thought I had my frame. I saved then checked with rare candies. Apparently I flipped one too few pages and although I have perfect Special Attack the rest of my stats are very low. I am still proud to enter this handsome dude as my entry in the challenge..

Nice stuff RingoH and loucas!

Thanks everyone for participating in this challenge, be sure to bug Mac to add you on the scoreboard XD

Time for the new challenge!

The Wake Up Slap Challenge!
The spring is coming so wake the Pokemon up! Some of the Pokemon are based on animals that hibernate during the winter. So what are you waiting for? RNG one of those to wake it up! Since this challenge is based on your creativity, you have to add a creative explanation why did you choose this Pokemon, not another one. If you don't have any ideas what pokemon it could be, this article might be helpful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernation


The challenge starts now and ends on March 23rd, 2012 11:59 PM UTC-4 (US Eastern Time)

RingoH March 20th, 2012 3:32 AM

WOW Gonzo!!! That is such an awsome and creative challenge I am looking forward to completing it. I acctually know exactly which Pokemon I plan to use for it... and it's not (I hope anyway) an obvious one... Going to wait til I've completed to tell you what it is though (Usually I like to tell my goal for a challenge but this one is so special I'm holding my hand a little close).... [I will say I think I'm migrating the parents for the challenge off one of my Gen III games]

This challenge inspired me to share this RNG I did a few weeks back:


http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb143.png
Snorlax - *SHINY*
Male - Adamant - Egg Hatched
26 / 6 / 11 / 31 / 31 / 31
Hidden Power - Dragon 70


Christianzeo March 20th, 2012 3:50 AM

How do we use the broken RNG? i still don't get it :P

Gonzo March 20th, 2012 4:18 AM

@RingoH Thank you! I'm glad you like my challenge! I hope you'll get a wonderful breed after swapping the parents from Gen III! Snorlax is kinda obvoius but a good example of a Pokemon that could sleep whole winter. I'm really excited what you'll get for us, good luck and have fun :)

@Christianzeo Read RNG abuse guide by TwilightBlade. It's well written and easy to understand, that should help.
