Question:
Is there a way to RNG a held item? Is this somehow related to encounter slots, or is this an aspect of RNG we can't predict?
I think that depends on the PID. Certain PID gives you pokemon that holding items.
I miss so many stuffs T_T

Ok... If that is true. RNG Reporter tells us the PID for the Pokemon we're going for, do we have a way of knowing if that PID would result in a Pokemon with a held item? I assume it would be more complicated because, if we look at say Chansey as an example:
50% of her hold an oval stone.
5% hold a Lucky Egg
The remaining 45% hold nothing.

:-( I wonder if I just need to keep catching her over and over till I find that Lucky Egg.

You can RNG the baby Pokemon or the original Pokemon, Ringo. And I know research is being done on held items... but I don't think it's complete.

Catching her over then. RNG just to get a held item does not worth it.

Hi guys,

I just started trying to RNG on Generation 5, and I'm trying to get a flawless Naughty Zekrom on White, using a DS Lite. As far as i can gather I'm doing everything right, doing by the book, starting my game a second before the target time, have a Naughty synchronizer, two Chatot etc:

http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/5642/rngp.png

But I'm getting IVs of 22 - 23 / 26 - 27 / 0 - 1 / 24 - 25 / 22 - 23 / 6 - 7 everytime. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

You are most likely hitting your other Timer0. Have you tried to change your parameters to the other Timer0 and find a new seed on that? Also, go to 5th gen tools, then Adjacent Seed Tool. Your parameters show up there. Enter your Min/Max Timer0. e.g. C7F and C80 or whatever. Enter the date and time of your seed and hit generate. You can match up the IVs there on that chart. B)

Hi guys! Over the course of two days, I learned how to RNG in gen V with help from Trade Corner lovelies. <3 This is my 4th and latest RNG, and also my first flawless shiny. :) It took a long time and I'm very happy now that I've got him...though, he's not gonna evolve, cause he'll turn purple.
