Edit: Does anyone know how to RNG Entralink Pokemon?

Good luck with that! Here's a helpful guide for RNGing Entralink Pokemon: http://www.smogon.com/forums/group.php?do=discuss&group=&discussionid=8893 If you have any questions feel free to ask them. :)

So I was fooling around with Cute Charm abuse in 4th Gen. As you may know, I abused my ID/SID to get good shinies and apparently, all Cute Charm seeds have huge amount of shiny frames, so I got what I wanted to get:

Aéromite (Venomoth) ♀ http://www.pokecheck.org/i/lang/3.png (lvl 14)
https://www.pokecheck.org/i/anims/049.gif http://www.pokecheck.org/i/itm/498.png
Nature: Timid || Ability: Shield Dust || OT: Camilla (200)
IVs: 31/10/31/31/31/31
Foresight|Supersonic|Confusion|PoisonPowder

and 3 other, bad IVs Pokemon to give away in Polish forums:

Oddish ♀ http://www.pokecheck.org/i/lang/3.png (lvl 10)

Venonat ♀ http://www.pokecheck.org/i/lang/3.png (lvl 8)
http://sprites.pokecheck.org/sicon/48.png http://www.pokecheck.org/i/itm/007.png

Abra ♀ http://www.pokecheck.org/i/lang/3.png (lvl 9)

IVs: 2/12/18/24/20/4
Teleport|***|***|***

I recommend playing with it, because it's so funny when there's a shiny every 5-10 frames. If you don't care about IVs, just the shininess, it's a cool and easy method of obtaining them. You can literally get all pokemon living in a certain area as shinies (unless they're fixed gender/genderless).

Cordelia June 20th, 2013 5:54 AM

Nice job Gonzo, that's awesome. Unfortunately, I don't think many people bother with 4th gen lately so it might be something we need to get back into!

mathioks June 20th, 2013 6:12 AM

Hi, I've been reading on how to start out with RNG'ing, but I have one major problem..
I don't have wireless internet at my home, so I am stuck with a nintendo wi-fi connector for online DS thingies...
Now I was wondering if anyone out here would have some spare time to help me out on finding my sid for me, along with a certain pokemon I would need from pokécheck to start out on my RNG'ing adventure

You can PM me or just post it on here

thanks in advance

Gonzo June 20th, 2013 6:34 AM

We can go around that and make magic happen, jest tell me a few things:
- Are you using PC or laptop?
- what's your computer's OS?
- what games do you have?
- what kind of DS you have?

mathioks June 20th, 2013 6:43 AM

Thanks for the quick reply!
I am using a laptop windows 7, but I also have an old windows XP next to me ( I use this one to connect my nintendo usb connector to )
my games are white and black 2
and I have a regular DS ^^

Gonzo June 20th, 2013 7:00 AM

try this: http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/

Since you have a laptop, you have a built-in WiFi receiver. You can also use it to send WiFi signal! Just be sure to pick WEP, because DS (Lite) can't connect with WPA, unfortunately.

if this software won't work, try to google something similar, good luck!

mathioks June 20th, 2013 7:03 AM

Thank you! I will try it right away :D

Plumpyfoof June 20th, 2013 7:10 AM

Alright so I've started on all this today and I'm struggling to find accurate seeds in PPRNG for Mac. I know they're inaccurate because I try them several times over with the same result.
Is there something I should look for specifically that tells me it's on the right track or am I just really unlucky?

Also what do the Grass/Cave/Surf/Spot numbers represent and do I need to worry about them?

Gonzo June 20th, 2013 7:24 AM

Provide screenshots of your PPRNG, please. We can figure something out.

mathioks June 20th, 2013 7:29 AM

hey Gonz0, I am sorry to be bothering you with this again, but I cannot seem to find the option to change the Virtual router manager from WPA2 to WEP.
Would you by any chance know how this is done?

Gonzo June 20th, 2013 7:44 AM

I have absolutely no idea. You should try to google for similar software compatibile with WEP, I guess.

mathioks June 20th, 2013 7:45 AM

okay, will do, thanks a lot for the answers! :)

shayminskyforme88 June 21st, 2013 4:42 AM

Hi, I just recently started RNGing on my Black 2. I managed to find a seed which will get me a flawless shiny, but my problem is I can't get the time, date, timer0, vcount, and vframe values needed to hit this seed. Is there any way to find these? Using PPRNG BTW. Thanks in advance.

Cordelia June 21st, 2013 5:19 AM

You have to find your parameters using B2W2's parameter search in the program.

http://www.smogon.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3411155&postcount=4

Use the calibration method in that post -- it works great and is quite fast.

shayminskyforme88 June 21st, 2013 8:37 PM

Ok thanks. Oh, Is it possible to RNG genderless stationary legends via Cute Charm method?

No, you cannot RNG genderless pokemons with Cute Charm Method. If it is possible, i suggest you try to go with Synchronise method only. For me, the cute charm method does not work for some reasons.

Never mind I figured it out. :)

EDIT!!

Alright so now that I have this mostly figured out, is there any way to reduce the time I wait searching for seeds? It seems to take forever!

The time it takes to find a seed depends on what you're searching for. The more specific the seed you're looking for, the longer it'll take usually. If you're searching for a shiny flawless capture for example, it could take days to find a seed. D: On the other hand, if you're using flawless international parents for breeding and search for a shiny flawless seed, you should find plenty of seeds easily. All depends on what you're going for.
