But, here's what i've RNG'd in the past few days after finally learning how to do it! XD

Checkmark the Pokemon you want exported to text format, then click "Export Selected Pokemon to BBCode". You can customize the format in your Pokecheck profile. I assume this is what you were asking about.

Hello, I'm trying to RNG Eggs, but I understand I can't RNG Black and White 2 Eggs. I've calibrated my White 2 game to RNG Reporter, but I can't get my Black version to give me results. I've tried many times, but I can't get it to work.

Any suggestions?

Both games are going to have different timer0s and what not. You can't use another game's timer0 value(s) for a different one. You'll have to calibrate on each game. ALso the timer0 values you usually find in Black differ from the ones you find in White 2.

ChipmunkGamingInc. August 25th, 2013 4:56 AM

Yeah, I'm not using the timer0 from my white 2 game, I'm totally re-calibrating my black game, doing the same process all over again.
I'm kinda at a loss here...

tabor62 August 25th, 2013 6:50 AM

Probably a stupid question, but this is Black not Black 2? And could we also get a screenshot of Time Finder?

Absol August 25th, 2013 10:46 AM

Have you tried doing different times and dates and even different seconds? Also, where and how are you trying to calibrate your Black?

ChipmunkGamingInc. August 25th, 2013 3:58 PM

It's Black original, and no I haven't tried different times. I'll try that tomorrow morning, thanks!!^^

Does anyone here know how to RNG shiny stationary legends in Gen IV using PPRNG?

Griffinbane August 30th, 2013 4:25 AM

This guide is the only one I found and unfortunately all the pictures have disappeared. Still, it may be of help.

Sneaky Truth September 6th, 2013 1:41 AM

I've never rng'd before, but read the first post. Is it possible to rng the shiny dialga that I downloaded today? I still haven't picked it up yet, but I was wondering if rng of a shiny wondercard pokemon is actually possible and what my different steps would be.

Griffinbane September 6th, 2013 4:11 AM

Wondercards are actually the easiest to RNG. After calibration, you fly to a Pokemon Center that has no wandering NPCs, save, and do your frame advancements. Don't forget the in-between steps!

Done these within the past few weeks. With two jobs and being a full time student, haven't had too much time to really do much RNG'ing :(

SPOILER!

TwilightBlade allowed me to revamp her guide :D

There will be a breeding section added and I'll link my wondercard abuse guide I wrote for nuggetbridge.com and I'll link reliable source of videoguides for those who prefer to see the whole process rather than finding their own way. :)

If nothing urgent happens, I should get that done by Monday! Stay tuned B)

edit: oh yeah, forgot to mention: it'll be adjusted for BW2

Sneaky Truth September 22nd, 2013 5:57 AM

Ok not sure if this is a really stupid mistake or something, but this is really starting to annoy me.

I've just started to rng, trying to get a perfect shiny event palkia first before I try with out encounters. I've done all my calibration and i'm at the step where I generate a seed in the Time Finder window. After I get one I left click 'copy to clipboard' on the highlighted part, then I go to paste it into the RNG Reporter window, yet when I left click I don't get a drop-down window come up. Is there something i'm doing really wrong or is RNG reporter not behaving the way it should?

Thanks

Absol September 22nd, 2013 9:09 AM

Under Method did you change it to Wondercard (5th Gen)? And are you doing the Palkia on BW or B2W2? Also, screen shots will help too if you can do those. :)

RingoH September 28th, 2013 7:55 PM

Hi All. I have missed you all, but took a break from other things to work on a new RNG project. Here I present my first Dream Radar abuse! Can not wait to find time to do some more of these:

http://sprites.pokecheck.org/icon/517.pnghttp://www.pokecheck.org/i/notshiny.png #517 Munna ♀ (level 10) http://www.pokecheck.org/i/itm/576.png

(Did not worry about nature on this one)

***NOTE: I edited my post to add more so as not to Double Post, additions are below:

I have a second Dream Radar abuse under my belt now, but this time I wanted to fine a seed to aim for a specific nature. I was working on a Riolu, and had an additional difficult to the fact I was aiming for a nature. Riolu was also NOT the slot #1 Pokemon, but the one in slot #3. I aimed for a Pokemon with a spread I wanted on about frame 50 to compensate for this, as I new my Riolu would be on frame 34 to start with, and I wanted to give myself a few chances to use the key link's spinner to verify my seed. According to my understand of the calculations, after my advances I should have landed on a Jolly nature. I did hit the spread I was aiming for, but landed on Impish for a nature. I really do not MIND the Impish Riolu, but I do not want to make this same mistake when I head out for my Kami Trio, or my Gen IV Legendaries. So I am trying to figure out what I may have done wrong while practicing.

It's not letting me hit Export BBCode for some reason, but here is the Legality Analysis of Riolu:
https://www.pokecheck.org/?screenshot=6357096&la

Also, does anyone know how gender is determined in the Dream Radar?

Jaden23252 October 2nd, 2013 7:35 AM

Hey guys
It's been a while since i've posted here but i've been having a great time rnging i ve rnged my shiny osshawoot and riolu and many more rnges too bad I can't post yet because of the 15 post limit but Anyways
i need to ask you guys something
i need to rng me a wild drilbur in a cave but I don't know how to so anyone can give me a guide?

Absol October 2nd, 2013 10:31 AM

That's good to hear that you're enjoying yourself. :) Drillbur would be a cave spot RNG and I don't know of any guides for that specifically since it's basically wild capture but a little different than normal.

Jaden23252 October 3rd, 2013 3:05 AM

thanks for the replay :)
the problem is that drilbur is appearing in dust clouds and I don't think that normal sweet scent would work right?
also when rnging wild pokes can you tell what moves it's gonna have?
thanks in advance

Absol October 3rd, 2013 6:44 AM

Sweet scent wouldn't work. You'll have to take steps and make sure to move exactly the same way each time and then compensate for the frames advanced to find what the actual starting frame is and then do your chatters before walking into the dust cloud. As for what moves the wild Pokemon will know, you can use a Pokedex to get an idea for what moves they learn at what level. Here's a link to Drillbur's Pokedex page if you need it.

Plumpyfoof October 24th, 2013 11:36 PM

So I've been doing this for a while, I want to show you guys what I've come up with.

I have a few others including shiny flawless Charizard, but I either stuffed the EVs by a few points or forgot to breed some egg moves.
Little things that are a little bit embarrassing.
I also lent my prize Lucario to my friend so he could sweep the E4 before I saved it on Pokecheck. :(

aug4457081 November 11th, 2013 1:52 PM

I'm new to this forum and joined partially to get tips on breeding and I came across this thread.

Through breeding I had planned to raise near perfect pokemon with perfect IVs and natures, which initially didn't seem too difficult, just time consuming. After skimming through the guide for RNG abuse it doesn't seem like it'd be too difficult once one has the hang of it, and it seems less time consuming.

I guess my real question is, what is the general opinion RNG abuse, and is it worth it to learn if I had planned on breeding perfect pokemon and battling with them?

First off, welcome.

As for your question; It's kind of 50/50 with opinions on RNG, there's a whole thread on RNG abuse vs Shiny Hunting check that out for the opinions. I for one am so glad I learnt this, I don't feel I'm cheating because really I'm just leveraging the game to my advantage.

If you are absolutely going to raise flawless Pokemon one way or another, this (for Gen IV and V at least) will save you so much time. It took me maybe a day to get my head around how everything worked and then after a few attempts it becomes easier and easier to replicate good results.
The most fun thing is not telling your friends, entering battles with them, and unexpectedly pulling out your flawless shinies. The power! Mwahah!
