#

all pokemon models blink

#

you cant monitor in front of any of them unless it is an otherwise silent area and youre using 1 pk npc

#

which is not recommended unless absolutely necessary (first encounter cresselia/darkrai)

#

monitor in front of where you place the slate

short ridge
#

Id need to get more mysterious shards though which is pain

short ridge
#

@rich wolf and its immediately not working

#

I have a bad feeling abt this

#

my eye isnt getting a red box around it

#

Ill keep trying different snips of the eye but idk

rich wolf
#

are you using raw screenshot

#

and adjusting threshold

short ridge
#

raw screenshot doesnt show up when I try select eye

rich wolf
#

add .png to the end of the file name

#

when youre saving it

short ridge
#

k

rich wolf
#

then crop it down to just the eye

short ridge
#

oh that worked

#

ty

#

the threshold is still at 0.9

#

but it seems to be tracking the blinks accurately so ill leave it for now

short ridge
#

other than that Ik its just about timing

short ridge
# rich wolf then crop it down to just the eye

this isnt about help but Istg if I fail the shiny when I get it, cuz I dont have Harvest Executor that you usually need for the method, and im saving my master ball for Arceus since holy hell im not tryna catch that with strats that dont work against it

#

@rich wolf so I dont have the google doc that I put in my number and it tells me when to click stuff

#

but my firts advance encounter is 2116 (I did delay and then 84 already)

#

so is that when I click> or..

rich wolf
#

you should follow the video i linked

short ridge
#

Okay but like Ion understand that math

rich wolf
#

you can skip the set up parts since youve already done that

#

he links to a spreadsheet where you just enter your target

#

and the right settings for the encounter

short ridge
#

okay thanks

rich wolf
#

and it tells you when to start the timeline and when to press A to encounter

#

and goes over and shows in the video what that looks like

short ridge
#

wait theres no spreadsheet link in that video

#

I think he does that in the dialga video

#

unless im blind

#

nvm its there sorry im just a melon

#

okay nvm.

short ridge
#

Ill try find the link to the one from the dialga video

#

idk what a timeline buffer is but Ig Ill keep it 110

rich wolf
short ridge
#

mk yeah

#

so my initial advance was 2200

#

the doc says to start timeline at 2090

short ridge
#

then final A press at 2116

#

Im getting my advances reidentified rn

#

I hope I havnt gone over

rich wolf
#

if you have just go for the next one

short ridge
#

yeah

#

the next one is close too

#

okay Im about 3 minutes away

#

I aint skipping advanced anymore

short ridge
#

and final A press at 2116

rich wolf
#

you can wait on the pedestal

#

hold up and press a twice to exit oak's dialogue and enter the pedestal dialogue

#

then get to the last input of that

#

wait for 2090

#

click timeline buffer

short ridge
#

holdon rq

rich wolf
#

when it hits 0 you press A to use the slate and walk up to the mon

short ridge
#

do I click A on "would you like to use a soul slate"

#

is that the line of text I needa be waiting on

short ridge
#

i got 30 seconds

rich wolf
#

"the pedestal started shining" is the last one

short ridge
#

okay it didnt work

#

but now I know the timings and stuff

rich wolf
#

if youre sure you did it all right then find what you got

short ridge
#

nah I reset

rich wolf
#

you can use a master ball since youll be resetting anyway (if you have auto save off)

short ridge
#

I definitely didnt do it right

#

lemme mind map here

#

so I find my timings

#

I get to the first timing

#

click a on the pedistal shining

#

I click on Latios(its latios first)

#

then I click on its last line of dialogue at my 2nd timing

#

thats it yeah?

rich wolf
#

reidentify in front of the pedestal

#

enter the pedestal text

short ridge
#

yeah

rich wolf
#

get to "the pedestal started shining"

#

wait until your timeline number (2090)

short ridge
#

I gotta do my 40 blinks again now

rich wolf
#

click the timeline button

#

when the timeline hits 0 you press A on "the pedestal started shining"

#

hold up to get to latios

short ridge
#

ok I understand

rich wolf
#

press A immediately to enter its dialogue

short ridge
#

I have about 2 hours max

rich wolf
#

press A when you get to the last A press

short ridge
#

I hope to get it in the next 5-10 tries

#

okay I got it

rich wolf
#

whenever you miss always find what you hit

short ridge
#

ill monitor my blinks, get to my next encounter, and let u know what happens

short ridge
#

and I do have autosave off

rich wolf
#

the default settings arent guaranteed to work for everyones set up so you likely need to adjust the delay by a little bit

short ridge
#

sorry this is my first time doing any RNG manip

#

so im hella bad at it

short ridge
#

then Ik how to do Arceus and Dialga

#

not sure on Giratina method, ill google it

#

how about cresselia

#

cuz I think its roaming no?

rich wolf
#

all ramanas legends are basically the same

short ridge
rich wolf
#

just might have slightly different delays depending on if it pulls a random legend

#

nothing you cant adjust for though

#

giratina is basically dialga

#

you just start right outside the last doorway

#

rather than within the spear pillar cave

short ridge
#

mk

#

I may need your help with adjusting my stuff after I catch it

rich wolf
#

its in jefe's video as well

#

nickadabra has a video for cresselia

short ridge
#

DAMN

#

I GOT ONE AT 610

#

ok I gotta concentrate

rich wolf
#

its pretty different and more punishing since it can take a while each attempt and its a lot less stable

short ridge
#

yeah ill probably do Cresselia last

#

Ill do Latios/Latias/Rayquaza first

#

oh crap I missed it

#

next one is at 4K oh well

short ridge
#

Latios/Latias, Giratina, Arceus, Rayquaza, Cresselia

#

will probably take a while

#

honestly none of the other ramanas park legends are that good bhinking

#

@rich wolf sorry to keep pinging you since I basically know what to do now, but do I put "pokemon NPCs" to 1 on the Player blink program

#

since theres Latios

rich wolf
short ridge
#

ty

#

yeah that one was a bust too

#

I clicked timeline but it broke

#

and I accidentally clicked the Latios text 2 times

#

Ill go again

rich wolf
#

i would save your config and restart the program if it broke

short ridge
#

how do I do that

#

just click the save config button and close it?

rich wolf
#

screenshot it all just in case

#

then yes

#

the program isnt the most stable when it comes to user inputs

short ridge
#

yeah I restarted it

#

Monitering my blinks rn

#

well that one sucked

#

I was well timed but it sped up at my time

#

so it did 2 in 1

#

and I was put off

#

I caught this one so Ill see where I went wrong

#

@rich wolf the Advances are cheating fr

#

dk if u there Lincoln but

#

I thought i had it it this

#

but it wasnt shint

#

yk what nvm

#

this will be my last attempt for tonight but thanks for helping Lincoln I think I understand every step now

short ridge
#

@rich wolf well thanks for helping, I’ll probably go to sleep and continue tomorrow, I’ll probably ask you how to see how close I was, since I can’t search for the advance when I put in the right Pokémon and then advanced

rich wolf
rich wolf
short ridge
#

Uh

#

So I put in the Ive

#

IVs

#

And the nature

#

And click find IVs

#

But I’m not sure how to find the one I caught

rich wolf
#

you just filter for the ivs of the pokemon you got

#

instead of filtering for a shiny

#

and compare what advance gives what you got with what you were aiming for

short ridge
#

yeah it just didnt work last time

#

anyways im starting again now, Ive pretty much got all day(12 hours) to get better and adjust my settings

#

I hope to get at least Latios/Latias today, then ill go for Giratina

#

ive just figured out scrolling to 200 in my pokedex is roughly 800 advances

#

just gonna put this here for future reference

short ridge
#

its saying the one I got was 1764 or 1765

rich wolf
#

and what were you aiming for

short ridge
#

1766

#

so I was 1-2 early

short ridge
rich wolf
#

no

short ridge
#

oh ok

#

do I need to adjust anythin

#

or should I try a bit more and see

rich wolf
#

decrease A-press delay by 1

#

and try again

short ridge
#

so from 84 to 83?

rich wolf
#

yes

short ridge
#

ok

#

I think I saw a comment on Papa jeffes video when he did Dialga

#

about 83 being a lot better

#

so yeah I think that will work

rich wolf
#

depends on the set up

short ridge
#

or my timing could just be off

#

but im clicking right on the thing

#

so likle with timeline I click when it hits 0

#

which I think im supposed to do

short ridge
#

cuz ik S/V might have more compatibility in DLC pt2 but idk rn if they can go to PLA

rich wolf
#

they cant

short ridge
#

well thats annoying

#

since those are my 3 favorite legendary shinies

#

except Arceus but hes just too clean

short ridge
#

I needed 16809

#

I got 16808

#

so either I put it back up 1 or keep trying

rich wolf
#

I would try 1 more time

#

if you hit 1 early again you decrease it again

short ridge
#

wait

#

oh I get it

rich wolf
#

new delay = old delay + (hit advance - target advance)

short ridge
#

ok

#

ill try again ig

#

I really hope I get it soon

short ridge
#

it was Latios this time for some reasonb

#

it keeps changing between the 2

rich wolf
#

it’s random

short ridge
#

mk

#

it was 8543

#

I needed 8544

#

Ill put it down 1

rich wolf
#

82 then

short ridge
#

?

#

k

rich wolf
#

you seem to be hitting consistently

#

which is a good sign

short ridge
#

yes

rich wolf
#

the first one could’ve been 82 or 83

short ridge
#

this also means when I do latios/Latias(whichever one is next)

#

I can do it quickly?

#

like within an hour?

rich wolf
#

it’s the same process

short ridge
#

yay

rich wolf
#

so if you can do it consistently you just need to calibrate your delay

short ridge
#

k

rich wolf
#

still don’t expect to 100% hit it with 82 because there can be natural variation

short ridge
#

yeah

rich wolf
#

but you’d want at least 3 failed attempts before considering changing it

#

seems pretty solid

short ridge
#

k

#

then I think im gonna go for either Giratina or Rayquaza

#

probably Giratina since Id need to do like 2 hours of digging and catching legendaries to get to Rayquaza

rich wolf
#

rayquaza is the exact same thing

#

giratina is basically the same you just timeline at a different point

#

you save right in front of the last door before it’s room (because it has the weird pillar mechanic)

short ridge
#

yeah

rich wolf
#

and enter the room on 0

short ridge
#

you cant shiny hunt Mew can you?

rich wolf
#

mew and jirachi are shiny locked

short ridge
#

aw

rich wolf
#

you can rng them for IVs though

short ridge
#

yeah the Regis, Johto Dogs and Kanto birds arent good shinies tbh

#

only other ones I would wanna hunt is Shaymin or Darkrai

#

but didnt play either of those events

rich wolf
#

personally a fan of the johto beasts and kanto birds

short ridge
#

I mean

#

they arent bad

#

But I dont like them nearly enough to hunt them

#

Unless I can go back and shiny hunt them once Ive already caught them?

rich wolf
#

1 per save

short ridge
#

well thats fine

rich wolf
#

if you save after catch it won’t respawn

#

it’ll respawn if it was KOd though

short ridge
#

yeah

#

Groudon and Kyogre missed some opportunities though

#

the Primals look great

#

the regular ones look horrible imo

#

Groudon is like a puke green and Kyogre isnt bad but its not good

short ridge
#

@rich wolf its shiny yesss

#

now I gotta catch it

rich wolf
#

nice

short ridge
#

its been thunder waved

#

im gonna thunderbolt once

#

then ill start Ultra balls

#

if it gets me down to my last pokemon ill just master ball but thats my last resort

#

okay its low HP

#

I have a lvl 100 magnezone out, so I resist its moves

#

hope tocatch it

#

YO I CAUGHT IT

#

LINCOLN BRO I FRICKIN LOVE YOU

short ridge
#

im happy af

#

time for Latias to get clapped

short ridge
#

alright I have the shards, Im gonna start Latias now

#

then Ill go giratina if you wouldnt mind helping with that after @rich wolf

short ridge
#

sorry that I pinged you so much Lincoln, but I got Shiny Latias first try and I just caught it, ill go for Giratina next.

rich wolf
#

nice

short ridge
#

uh

short ridge
#

but how exactly do I Save on Giratina

#

once I go into his cave place I cant go out since it randomises it

#

do I have to save before every door?

rich wolf
#

the room with the third pillar will always lead to giratina

#

get to that room and save right under the top entrance

short ridge
#

okay

#

oh I just got 3 in a row nice

#

im saving

#

ill go in just to check

#

but ill just reset if its right

#

yep okay time to hunt

short ridge
#

like is it much different

rich wolf
#

exit oak's dialogue and enter giratinas room when timeline hits 0

#

get to the last A press in giratinas dialogue

#

then press A on your target

short ridge
#

also the red bxo isnt appearing

#

on my eye

#

how do I fix that

rich wolf
#

did you take a new eye snip

short ridge
#

no

#

do I need to?

rich wolf
#

yes

short ridge
#

ok

short ridge
#

or does it change between different legends

rich wolf
#

youll have to calibrate anyway

short ridge
#

holdon why do I have to recalibrate

#

will 82 not work

rich wolf
#

its not guaranteed to work

short ridge
#

k

short ridge
#

do I have to enter the room on timeline 0

#

or click and enter on 0

#

well thats odd

#

I caught it and I put its stats in but It doesnt seem to be showing up

#

on the pokefinder

#

ok I hit 3854

#

I needed 3852

#

ill try again and see

short ridge
#

@rich wolf I needed 7478, I got 6480

#

Im 2 late e

#

Ill try once more, if not im changing the delay

#

nvm ill just put it back to 84 delay, thats the defualt and it seems that it will work.

#

that time I needed 984 and got 983, ill try once more but it could be worth putting it at 83

short ridge
#

okay I put it at 83 and got like 5292/5921 when I needed 5923

#

@plucky zinc sorry to ping but now idk what to put the delay

#

I just caught another on 83 delay, Ill let u know how much I missed it by

#

okay I just got either 2975, 2976, or 2977, I needed 2979

plucky zinc
#

83-84

short ridge
#

k

#

Ill try 1 more time

#

if im below by 1-2, Ill go 84

short ridge
short ridge
#

so im getting like 2 early every time

plucky zinc
#

Pings please

short ridge
#

what

plucky zinc
#

Off

short ridge
#

MK

plucky zinc
#

And then if you're 2 off, try 2 off

short ridge
#

like 2 higher

#

?

#

so to 85?

#

oh it goes down doesnt it

#

so I was 2 early I should put my Delay down by 2

short ridge
short ridge
#

got a shiny first try on 81 delay and caught it

#

big W

#

only ones left are Rayquaza, Cresselia, then Arkoos

short ridge
#

Shiny Rayquaza

#

@rich wolf sorry to ping you so much, but im onto Rayquaza tonight and Mewtwo tomorrow

#

and I was jus gonna ask if Rayquaza/mewtwo are the same as Latias/Latios

#

ofc I know to adjust the delay time if its off consitently, but other than that, are they just the same?

plucky zinc
#

nothing special

short ridge
#

mk

#

then I gotta complete the PLA dex

#

for Arkoos

#

thats gonna suck

short ridge
#

okay I was 1 late that time

#

if im 1 late again next time imma put it up 1

short ridge
#

Shiny Dialga/Cresselia

#

@rich wolf Im gonna go for Dialga now probably, then ill go for Cresselia, is there any difference from Dialga than Giratina?

#

Ive saved at the front of the door, havnt entered

rich wolf
#

same exact thing

short ridge
#

alright thanks

short ridge
#

cuz I googled it but Google is often wrong

rich wolf
#

anything arceus or below can

#

as long as it passes through home fine

short ridge
#

what does Arceus or below mean

rich wolf
#

which any legal pokemon would

#

based on pokedex number

#

if its kanto johto hoenn or sinnoh

#

it exists in bdsp

short ridge
#

the Regis cant go to S/V though

#

neither can the Legendary dogs

rich wolf
#

oh i entirely misread lmao

#

thats relevant for bdsp

short ridge
#

yh

rich wolf
#

m2 is in S/V though

#

there was an entire raid event for it as well

short ridge
#

I see

#

I guess ill go for that after dialga

#

is Cresselia hard to get?

#

since its roaming

plucky zinc
#

You RNG it before it runs aways like any Roamer

#

The RNG isn't the funniest of all

#

not the hardest neither

rich wolf
#

each attempt takes a while because you have to track down and catch it

plucky zinc
#

then you can let her free for like 200 years it'll be done

short ridge
#

probably wont do Cresselia then

rich wolf
#

and it is more inconsistent so itll likely take more attempts

#

nothing impossible or super hard though

short ridge
#

Arceus is gonna be the hardest one

plucky zinc
#

No

short ridge
#

just because I need to finish the dex

#

In PLA

#

thats gonna take 2 days or smth

short ridge
#

@rich wolf I think I may have just had my luckiest moment ever

#

so uh

#

okay I just had another one

#

so, when I was about to click on Dialga, my button didnt work

#

so I had to do it again

#

but my 2nd click, the game glitched forward.

#

so I clicked 2 late

#

and it was still somehow shiny

plucky zinc
#

Bot evasion + don't overping people

short ridge
#

whats bot evasion

rich wolf
#

bot blocks swear words

plucky zinc
#

Also yeah Dialga isn't the worst

rich wolf
#

though i think ive seen that just not work in threads

#

so idk

short ridge
#

I didnt even know bot blocked swear words

#

ive never tried to type one before

#

uh what do I cal lit

plucky zinc
#

does work

short ridge
#

call it*

#

uh

#

Dialga is kinda greeny

#

Ill call him uhh

rich wolf
short ridge
#

yeah idk

rich wolf
#

maybe just bad filter

short ridge
#

ill name it links

#

after lincoln

#

really no gifs?

#

ight

rich wolf
#

embeds are broken in threads for some reason

short ridge
#

k

rich wolf
#

that or the permission is mod only

plucky zinc
#

smh discord

short ridge
#

well that Dialga was lucky ash

#

although if I check its nature, and its not Modest like I synchronised it to be, I may freak out

#

uhm

#

its mild nature

#

did I just..

#

full odds...

#

imma see

rich wolf
#

synchronize works 100% of the time

#

so your sync wasnt set up properly

#

pokefinder will predict all advances so you cant get something it doesnt show you

#

so if you didnt see another nearby shiny advance it just means you hit what you were aiming for

short ridge
#

oh I see

#

Yeah I think the sync was just broken

#

Im just lucky the advances sped up by 2 so I got it

#

then I accidentally thunderbolted it with my magnezone and it lived on 2hp

#

thats about the luckiest thing to happen to me in months

short ridge
#

or is there a YT vid on roamers

rich wolf
#

cresselia is its own case

short ridge
#

I see

rich wolf
#

mesprit is basically the same as other legends but takes a while

#

cress is additionally inconsistent and has a slightly different method

short ridge
#

okay yeah I dont think im doing Cresselia

#

Ill try for a bit but will prolly give up quickly

#

oh what wheres fullmoon island

#

I assume its that place you go from canavalave?

rich wolf
#

yes

#

the place you take the boat to

short ridge
#

oh thats iron island

#

I think

rich wolf
#

the place you boat to specifically for cresselia

#

it is the only thing on the island

#

and you can only go there during the quest iirc

short ridge
#

uh

#

Okay do I need the quest or smth

short ridge
rich wolf
#

only for eggs

short ridge
#

k

short ridge
#

my lead is a level 66, I thought it was supposed to spawn when im using a repel

rich wolf
#

google says its level 50

#

so no

short ridge
#

oh thats how it works

short ridge
rich wolf
#

correct

short ridge
#

nice

rich wolf
#

everything about it other than nature is generated as soon as you press A to release it

#

nature is set as well but is still affected by synchronize

#

so if you want a specific nature you have to have sync when you encounter and catch it

short ridge
#

okay I finally encountered it

#

this doesnt seem to bad tbh

#

I mean It obviously takes a few attempts, but its easier than I thought

#

ight imma check which one I got

#

wow I was 8 late

#

Ill try that again

short ridge
rich wolf
#

do what it tells you to do

short ridge
#

okay I was 2 early that time

#

I dont even think it matters, I dont think adjusting will do anything when its so random

short ridge
#

after cresselia, then Mewtwo, which I can probably complete both quite easily in the next 4 hours, then I have 5 days for Arceus

#

the hardest part is prolly completing the dex

short ridge
#

but it ran away

#

so how exactly do I catch it if it runs away first turn

rich wolf
#

if you save the game it will stay shiny until you catch it

short ridge
#

oh ok

rich wolf
#

past that it’s just catching a roamer

short ridge
#

then just quick balls?

rich wolf
#

the hp is shared across encounters

short ridge
#

is the status>

rich wolf
#

so you can wittle it’s hp down and use other balls

#

yes

short ridge
#

ok bet

#

well actually that doesnt help at all

#

since my only pokemon under lvl 50 cant learn false swipe and Ion wanna kill the cresselia

#

anyways its ok, ty for helping, ill get it in a few encounters

short ridge
#

Cresselia Caught

#

Moving onto mewtwo, and then its just Arceus as my final Shiny for BDSP

short ridge
#

@plucky zinc Do u know why when I try to monitor my blinks I keep getting false blinks, It blinks but my character hasnt done anything

#

and some other stuff

short ridge
#

ARKOOS

#

@plucky zinc Im now onto Arceus, the finaly shiny hunt until I can put BDSP down.

#

Is there anything I should know for it

#

or shall I just watch Papa jefes video on it

plucky zinc
#

idk not my thing

short ridge
#

k np

plucky zinc
#

Arceus has nothing special and it's an easy one

short ridge
#

perfect

plucky zinc
#

So you should get it without any issue if you did park etc

short ridge
#

yh

#

I think im gonna master ball it

#

Like, I doubt I would fail it

#

but Im just so tired of Shiny hunting legends atp

short ridge
#

oh my screen seems to be more pixely at the Arceus spot

#

I think its stopping me from getting my blinks monitered too, as ive taken a lot of new eyes but I keep getting phantom blinks

#

and ive put my threshold at 0.8

#

ight this just plain aint workinf

#

It cant deduce my seed but im 99% sure all of my 40 blinks were real

short ridge
#

okay my first attempt was roughly 4 early

short ridge
#

2nd attempt 1 early

#

I did click timeline 1 early that time too, so ill try 1 more

short ridge
#

@rich wolf How do I make my blinks more consistent

#

Like I have to find a perfect camera angle to get my 40 blinks to get me a seed

#

do I turn my threshold down or smth?

short ridge
#

attempt 3 was 4 early again

short ridge
#

4th try is shiny, I wont ping either of you, but I really just wanted to thank both of you for being the most helpful ppl to ever exist

#

and now im done with BDSP shiny hunting, and mostly all shiny RNG Manipulating until the next games come out in a few years
