struggling landing a shiny

[hollow pebble]

@wet otter

[wet otter]

Oh hey sorry its late here. I used Cfw so unfortunately not familiar with what I assume is Eon timer. Cfw makes it incredibly easy with knowing exact frames,pausing the game to land on the frame etc. I modded my 2ds xl using my phone. (I put the SD card into a type c SD card adapter,added the files I needed) keep in mind may need to use a PC for format to fat32. I'm sure there may be someone familiar with Non-cfw. Also Cfw won't get you illegal/cheated pokemon unless you outright do that with pksm etc. RNG Shinies ≠ Gen/Glitch/Hack/Clone/Duped.

One sec.

@tame cargo are you familiar with Non Cfw RNG?

Its late for Vlad but he is a great RNGr and knowledgeable more so than me

[hollow pebble]

really appreciate it hey, dont have a SD card atm, and just moved city with the misso so will be a week before im spending anything. so gonna try my best with out for now, but i mean as long as its guaranteed no way that i can get banned then i may try it, is it possible to un "crack" in a way your ds? just remove the sd card or?

[tame cargo]

Poipole : noisy as hell

No cfw don't except anything one try fancy

No issue here

[wet otter]

Found it! Thank God for google photos

[hollow pebble]

sorry what do you mean by that?

[wet otter]

Backed it up

[hollow pebble]

also found an old sdcard reader and can just my micro from my ds right

[wet otter]

I used the ancient at this point pcalc. Now is poke reader for rng

This was Dec 2022

[tame cargo]

I mean you are cfwless going for a 5 or 8 npc area

Don't except something smooth

[wet otter]

Ok noise in rng means what's going on in the background while hunting

[hollow pebble]

do you mean expect?

[wet otter]

For instance rng can turn either positive and or negative frame at a whim

[hollow pebble]

lol you maybe typo twice and it confused me

[wet otter]

Which is why timeline is important for gen 7

[hollow pebble]

ahh okay

[wet otter]

So you know what you can feasibly land on

Keep in mind may need to adjust delay etc

[hollow pebble]

so if i take the micro from the 3ds, and use it in a adapter, is that all i need to get cfw?

[wet otter]

It'll let you know what you need to adjust aswell.

Oh right. I used mine to copy important files to the SD (download onto my phone,and moved from internal to SD)

Unfortunately.

You may need a PC to format to fat32

A format you must have

For The SD

The SD card I bought had already had fat32 done.

If there is an android way I'll definitely let you know.

[hollow pebble]

ive got iphone lol

but i have a pc so hthats fine

[wet otter]

Ayyy nice.

PC is most definitely the best way to rng

The tools are lightweight aswell

[hollow pebble]

so should i use a blank micro? or if i fat32 will it wipe all my saves

[wet otter]

Doesn't make much storage or power honestly

[hollow pebble]

yeah but formating something generally wipes it

[wet otter]

Hm. No your saves won't be wiped

Unless they're put onto the SD

They're stored on the Pokémon card

And or digital title

[hollow pebble]

so i got a 4gb micro

and a kingston micro adapter

[wet otter]

That will work

[hollow pebble]

do i just download a file onto it? sorry new to t all

if there is a guide illjump that if its easier

[wet otter]

But ofc in the future definitely upgrade to at least minimum 128gb

Right I got you one sec!

[hollow pebble]

its just what i had when i got the ds as a kid haha

[wet otter]

That's the Hb/modding site

[hollow pebble]

is it possible to plug it into an apple macbook and be sweet?

otherwise ill have to get an adapter for my pc

doesnt have a sd slot

[wet otter]

https://discord.com/invite/nintendohomebrew

[hollow pebble]

fml

[wet otter]

There's a #1129868844933066793 assistance Channel aswell if you're stuck

In that server specifically for 3ds modding.

DON'T watch a yt video as those are often out dated

[hollow pebble]

yeah sweet, ill check it out

[hollow pebble]

do you know if its possible to install while using macbook?

cant find anything related onhow to access root files while on mac

[wet otter]

Not sure

I've always been an android/PC guy

For me IMO I like freedom without having to Jailbreak plus more open source/Apk freedoms If no store

[hollow pebble]

okay so i followed the guide

and i installed everything

https://3ds.hacks.guide/finalizing-setup

im now at this page

do i install the rest? or am i fine with the base install?

@wet otter give me a shout when you can, curious as would love this to work finally haha

[wet otter]

Hey

Ok run me through what you did and have installed

@hollow pebble

[hollow pebble]

that page that i linked

is where im up to

[wet otter]

Pics If you can

Pics are extremely helpful

[wet otter]

Of the 3ds/PC screen Both etc

[hollow pebble]

finished the 3 steps on the left

[wet otter]

I can see the guide yes

Need to see the 3ds/file screen

[hollow pebble]

the process is done, it said ive got the lumas and stuff too

had 0 issues downloading and installing

now back to the home page as it said i should be

[wet otter]

Ok I'll look at the guide again.

[hollow pebble]

moved all the docs in, ran through all the colours on the bottom screen

then it said it was complete and threw me back to the home screen

it thensaid next step was finalizing, so this step https://3ds.hacks.guide/finalizing-setup

[wet otter]

Tagged you in the proper Server for Hb

Logging off to sleep

[hollow pebble]

sweet

[wet otter]

Download the latest vers

0.4.1

[hollow pebble]

do i need to download it onto anything

[wet otter]

From 5 months ago

[hollow pebble]

or specifically the pc/macbook im plugging sd into

cause sd works on macbook

but cant into pc

[wet otter]

You download it,unzip put the pokereader.3gx into the Lumas/plugins

[hollow pebble]

or pretty much same as the rest?

ah sweet

[wet otter]

If you don't see the plugins folder make one

Rename pokereader.3gx to default.3gx

Remember to name plugins lowercase

Same with default

After that safely remove sd card put it in the 3ds with plugin enabled enjoy the overlay

[hollow pebble]

sweet lets see

[wet otter]

Now. Important:

To get the ability to shiny hunt

You need to know your Tsv

Trainer Shiny Value

Pokereader will provide that

[hollow pebble]

i got my tsv so far thats sweet

[wet otter]

Ayyy

[hollow pebble]

someone gave me it a dday or two ago haha

[wet otter]

It will provide your tid aswell

[hollow pebble]

wait so back up

[wet otter]

Sid you can use Pksm

[hollow pebble]

im at lumas pluglins

[wet otter]

Right

[hollow pebble]

do i go into luma folder

and then make plugins folder

[wet otter]

Under 3ds/luma/plugin

If there's no plugins in Luma yes make one

[hollow pebble]

hmm

i have a 3ds folder and a luma folder

both seperate

[wet otter]

Ok so use the Luna folder

[hollow pebble]

sweet

inside is backups and config

[wet otter]

Let me know once you have all of that done

And you boot up to test overlay

[hollow pebble]

alright

sd card in turning on

do i need to do the Ldownselect again

[wet otter]

If plugins is enabled,no.

[hollow pebble]

at home atm

[wet otter]

If disabled yes to enable

[hollow pebble]

okay

[wet otter]

Or to take a ingame ss(don't have to but it's cool nonetheless lol)

[hollow pebble]

how do i start the plugins then?

now that sd cards in and at home screen

[wet otter]

You enabled it right?

Go to Luma menu again see if it's enabled

[hollow pebble]

i hit enabled in the Ldownselect menu before putting it all on

yeah

[wet otter]

Ok open ultra moon

[hollow pebble]

[Enabled

okay

[wet otter]

You'll see a blue flash on the 3ds screen and an overlay shortly after

[hollow pebble]

oooh yeah

[wet otter]

All good?

[hollow pebble]

yep

[wet otter]

Heck yeah

[hollow pebble]

rng
daycare
wild
sos

etc

[wet otter]

Yessir

Do you know your trv?

For if you want to go for a square shiny for gen 8 onwards

[hollow pebble]

trv?

[wet otter]

Don't have to but still useful for that

[hollow pebble]

whats the square shiny for

i got tsv

[wet otter]

Square shinies is a different kind of shiny used for gen 8

And Bdsp,Pla,Sv etc

[hollow pebble]

i wanna bring it through home to play on switch, does it need to be square?

[wet otter]

There's star (regular) square (alternate)

And no don't need it

Just an option

Very simple to get aswell

[hollow pebble]

ohh okay, no difference?

[wet otter]

Also I have some recommendations for you app wise

Free and easy to install

First is Pksm

Pokémon manager app that you can edit your save with

[hollow pebble]

see pksm ive heard is bad

[wet otter]

You can add max items,complete dex etc

It's not bad lol

[hollow pebble]

yeah so thats just hacking the game right?

[wet otter]

It's how you use it

[hollow pebble]

like i dont wanna do anything that stops me from transfering to home and stuff

i just want poiple and null and im done lmao

[wet otter]

That won't stop you

[hollow pebble]

okay sweet

[wet otter]

Just don't generate a hacked mon or any

I just use it for items and dex to get charm

[hollow pebble]

well from here with the plugin already, how do i start for the hunt?

[wet otter]

Or to Max ev a Pokémon everything else I leave as is

[hollow pebble]

do i need the trv first?

[wet otter]

Trv is not needed. Only if you want an lternative shiny sparklem

So just throw that away

[hollow pebble]

is that legit all it is lmao

[wet otter]

Yeah

[hollow pebble]

just a difference between star and square on the iccon in game

lmao

alright well im good on that, i just want a regular ass shiny poipole

[wet otter]

It does look nice personally but yeah that's the only difference haha

[hollow pebble]

latest gen can change nature and ivs anyways

[wet otter]

Right

Right

Ok so you're on Mac right?

[hollow pebble]

i got one with me yeah

tping on discord with pc lmao

[wet otter]

I'm not sure if you can use 3dsrng tool on Mac

[hollow pebble]

i got the rng tool on pc in front of me already with timer

[wet otter]

Ooh ok PC

[hollow pebble]

so thats good

yeah

[wet otter]

Forget the timer

[hollow pebble]

mac was just for the sd card

[wet otter]

Don't need it

[hollow pebble]

okay sweer

[wet otter]

That's old

[hollow pebble]

gone

so

rng tool and ds

[wet otter]

Only need tool and Poke reader

(Well there's also Citra rng. Story for another time)

[hollow pebble]

poke reader was on the plugin we installed already yeah

or should i bring it up on pc

sorry to keep you up late lmao

[wet otter]

Ok what does your initial seed say

Whatever it does enter it at the top of 3dsrngtool

Where it says initial seed

[hollow pebble]

so get the 10 clcoks and find the seed?

[wet otter]

Double check you entered the correct Tsv

[hollow pebble]

or what do you mean initual

[wet otter]

Don't need clocks

Thanks to seed

Ok so in the game under
Rng

[wet otter]

In the overlay it will say Intial seed

[hollow pebble]

ahhhh lmao

i cant swear on here

but holy

thats so much easier

[wet otter]

Used to need clocks for seed

Not anymore

Thanks to science

[hollow pebble]

sweeeet

[wet otter]

(Nerdy xy anime reference)

Lol

Clemont

[hollow pebble]

hahah

so got the seed in,

[wet otter]

Important are you using a synchronize lead

[wet otter]

If so check yes,and what nature

[hollow pebble]

oh i donthave any

uhhh

needed?

[wet otter]

Ok don't need it just if you wanted a certain nature (doesn't always work(

[hollow pebble]

ahh sweet i dont care for nature

[wet otter]

So let's be 100

[hollow pebble]

again sweets in newest gen haha

[wet otter]

All you want is a shiny

Nothing special

[hollow pebble]

yup

[wet otter]

Ok gotcha

[hollow pebble]

i can fix the rest myself later

for competitive

[wet otter]

This will be fast

[hollow pebble]

like in earlier gens this all mattered

but in SV they made it so you can change all with mochi and stuff

[wet otter]

It does still matter somewhat

Mochi lowers evs not ivs

[hollow pebble]

if i wanted a 0 speed or something i guess

[wet otter]

Mints change stats not nature

Which isn't the biggest deal

Lol

Also

[hollow pebble]

but you can change nature? or nah

[wet otter]

Ivs do matter for comp

0 attack is perfect for Poipole as its special and when confused won't do as much

[hollow pebble]

true

[wet otter]

But again that's if you have time

Otherwise bare bones shiny is simple enough

[hollow pebble]

well lets try a timid 0 attack then

if theres something there

if not i cbf

[wet otter]

Right

Ok let's see

[hollow pebble]

no safe F

just reset seed

?

[wet otter]

Open the game for a bit

And pause at like 1k something advances

Then turn on Safe F

And see if your frame matches it or nor

Not

[hollow pebble]

So load in?

[wet otter]

Example:Pokereader:1647 Safe f on 3dstool:1647

[hollow pebble]

wait lmao

how do i pause using this plugin

[wet otter]

Press select and start same time

[hollow pebble]

well im at 4k + now

[wet otter]

And press select to advance

Frame by frame

[hollow pebble]

ooooh okay

[wet otter]

Start to continue as it was before pause

So if you're at 4k something while paused

[hollow pebble]

okay im at 5085 paused

[wet otter]

In 3dstool with safe f do you see a matching frame

See if 5085 shows up

[hollow pebble]

nah

[wet otter]

I'm 3dstool,safe f on

[hollow pebble]

shiny off safe f on

[wet otter]

Ok so what does show try advancing to it

[hollow pebble]

one frame?

100?

[wet otter]

Like 5424

Try advancing

[hollow pebble]

each select puts the number up by 5 exactly

on advances

[wet otter]

Oh right frame's advance that way yeah

[hollow pebble]

nvm

it went to 5158

idk

lmao

[wet otter]

Select allows it to continue slower than unpaused

[hollow pebble]

i got 5423

[wet otter]

5426

Try to get to that

[hollow pebble]

5429 was next

[wet otter]

Hm.

What does npc count say

[hollow pebble]

5

[wet otter]

Ok good

[hollow pebble]

can take pic

[wet otter]

Ok

[hollow pebble]

its a diff seed than before, as i restarted

if you had that seed on your tool too

now is 113627C8

[wet otter]

Wrong seed on your tool

[hollow pebble]

let me double check

[wet otter]

F5b4 etc

[hollow pebble]

im on the new one now

[wet otter]

Enter the same as the poke reader

[hollow pebble]

and advances is now 5972 lol

[wet otter]

Ok research with safe f

With the same one as pokereader

[hollow pebble]

advances?

doesnt show 5972 on their yeat

so advance more?

[wet otter]

If not that's ok

Close the game

And reopen

Completely

Not partially

To get a new seed

Resetting doesn't change it

[hollow pebble]

okay went home and closed the software

[wet otter]

Besides not every seed will have something you want which you'll have to do anyway

[hollow pebble]

slowed my 3ds down with this all holy

cant i soft reset with L R SELECT for a new seed? i was doing that before

[wet otter]

Ok so boot it up and pause at at least 1k something

No

[hollow pebble]

but you said close and reopen

[wet otter]

Close and reopen

Yes

[hollow pebble]

ah ok

[wet otter]

Not soft reset

[hollow pebble]

sure

[wet otter]

Ok so with this new seed in poke reader

Enter it into 3ds tool

[hollow pebble]

4A67DAAB

[wet otter]

Remember both have to match

Not one having the old seed vice versa etc

Same seed for both every time

Manually enter Pokereaders seed into 3dstool every time

[hollow pebble]

okay i got one

to line up

3808

[wet otter]

Ok try hitting it

[hollow pebble]

are we just testing?

[wet otter]

You don't have to pause

[hollow pebble]

for non shinies

[wet otter]

Yes

[hollow pebble]

okay

[wet otter]

To see if it's stable

And you can feasibly land

[hollow pebble]

wait so what am i doing

its still paused

[wet otter]

..

[hollow pebble]

i dont want to fk the frame

[wet otter]

Pause close to 3808

[hollow pebble]

im paused on 3808 exactly

[wet otter]

Don't have to until then

Ooh

Ok perfect

[hollow pebble]

you said line up both on rng and game

[wet otter]

Now then turn on tinelime,press shiny

[hollow pebble]

do i hit A while paused?

[wet otter]

Look for a frame

[hollow pebble]

turn on timeline?

[wet otter]

No the safe f is to test if you can get a shiny

If you landed on 3808

You're good

[hollow pebble]

ooooh

[wet otter]

That was the test

[hollow pebble]

so games paused at 3808

so anything after is fine

[wet otter]

Right so in 3ds tool

Press the box beside timeline

Bottom right side of the tool

And press shiny only

[hollow pebble]

untick safe f?

[wet otter]

It'll do it itself

No need

[hollow pebble]

okay

then calculate?

[wet otter]

Timeline,shiny only,search/calculate

[hollow pebble]

okay

what i got

[wet otter]

Now remember the rng for poipole is unstable

You may or may not get it first try.

Which is OK

[hollow pebble]

also i just realised, i didnt talk to them yet ingame, was i supposed to get tot he prompt when he gives?

[wet otter]

You can calculate it's stats to adjust delay

Right before he pops up

"You received Poipole. v"

[hollow pebble]

okay done

back to 5220

paused

so im basically skipping

[wet otter]

BTW Dark blue shiny frames mean square light blue regular

[hollow pebble]

till the number lines up on the left collum

[wet otter]

Yes

Your nearest shiny is

7776

[hollow pebble]

damn

7774

do i need to try another then

until i get one that lines up?

[wet otter]

Woah slow down

[hollow pebble]

?

[wet otter]

If your at 7774 Pause or better pause way before and advance using select

[hollow pebble]

thats what i got to using select

[wet otter]

So it doesn't advance to much

What did it go to after

[hollow pebble]

i pasued around 7500

it was 7782

[wet otter]

7774,?

Hm ok.

[hollow pebble]

try for 19510?

[wet otter]

You didn't press Anything ingame?

[hollow pebble]

nah its still ready with the

ypu received poipole!

[wet otter]

Ok try for that

19510

Ooh I see why

The frame for 7776 is unstable

Which is why it has a ?

19k is your best bet

[hollow pebble]

15000 so far

[wet otter]

Awesome

Fingers crossed!!

Remember to pause before it reaches the shiny frame to slowly advance

Pro tip

[hollow pebble]

19512

[wet otter]

Damn that fast?

[hollow pebble]

yeah it went up by 6

i paused at 19400

[wet otter]

Ok yeah it's better to reset

[hollow pebble]

and went up using one selct at atime

[wet otter]

The rest are all unstable

All have ?

[hollow pebble]

syre

[wet otter]

Which isn't good

[hollow pebble]

ahhh okay

[wet otter]

Which is what vlad was talking about

[hollow pebble]

glad im skipping at least 10 mins with not checking clocks lmao

[wet otter]

Highly unstable but not impossible

[hollow pebble]

that was 99% of my time gone

[wet otter]

Right haha

Sorry you had to go through that

Blissey is definitely old fashioned rng wise

[hollow pebble]

this is plenty, having the chance to roll onto the number then im happy

but say we line it up

[wet otter]

Right

[hollow pebble]

do i hit A and unpause same time

[wet otter]

Ok do the same we did last time

[hollow pebble]

or do i hit a and it will trigger it before i unpause

[wet otter]

Same process

You hit a when you're on your shiny frame

[hollow pebble]

and it will auto unpause?

[wet otter]

Yep

[hollow pebble]

oh sweet

okay new seed

[wet otter]

That's Why pause is important

[hollow pebble]

e77838f1

[wet otter]

Ok same process

Manually put into 3ds tool

Safe f on,try to land on a frame on 3ds tool

[hollow pebble]

1085

landed safe F

[wet otter]

If good,timeline and shiny only

[hollow pebble]

so now search shiny

[wet otter]

Yes

[hollow pebble]

when you say time line

am i chceking anything on rng

for timeline

[wet otter]

Send a ss of your tool

[hollow pebble]

or just pressing shiny only and calculate

im paused on 1085

[wet otter]

Press tineline,Shiny only

Create timeline Have that checked

And then shiny only

[hollow pebble]

ooooh okay

thats different

[wet otter]

It's right beside the calculate button

[wet otter]

Bingo

For shits and giggles

I noticed something

Last try you didn't have timeline on

[hollow pebble]

im paused 2962 lol

yeah i didnt haha

[wet otter]

See if you did if your shiny would've been 7774

[hollow pebble]

oh sht

[wet otter]

That's happened before LoL

[hollow pebble]

[wet otter]

It's OK

[hollow pebble]

[wet otter]

Let's try again

[hollow pebble]

[wet otter]

It has to be a certain line

"you received Poipole v"

Right before the Nickname screen

[hollow pebble]

yeah im on it ready now

lmao

ffs

i forget half the time im doing the counter lmao

at 10k now, next shiny at 20k

[wet otter]

It's Ok it happens

Ok so try for the shiny at 20k

This is the same seed on both right?

You didn't reset the actual game etc

[hollow pebble]

[wet otter]

Check it's stats

[hollow pebble]

[wet otter]

And enter them in the tool

Same seed same everything

[hollow pebble]

untick time and shiny first?

[wet otter]

So stuff like it's Hp,male,nature,Hidden power

Untick shiny

Timeline is ok

[hollow pebble]

okay

i put it in

[wet otter]

You can see it's hidden power while in poke reader

[hollow pebble]

yeah 35327

[wet otter]

Scroll down to party

[hollow pebble]

it went up 3 when i hit A

[wet otter]

Hm ok

That's late

Which means

Adjust delay by three

If I remember Correctly one sec

@clear pivot

[hollow pebble]

delay on the plugin or the rng

[wet otter]

Rngtool

Hey Lincoln

If he's late by three

And say his delay is at 20

[tame cargo]

No

[hollow pebble]

aimed 35324, landed 35327

[wet otter]

Does he make it 23?

[tame cargo]

Delay shouldn't be touched in gen 7

[wet otter]

Ok Vlad you got this

[hollow pebble]

the frames lined up as 35324 on the app and the plugin, why did it go forward 3 when i hit a

[wet otter]

Gonna try to sleep a little

[tame cargo]

Your timeline is wrong

[hollow pebble]

appreciate all the help mate, seriously

thanks

[tame cargo]

Correct it

[hollow pebble]

so just do a fresh seed by restarting?

[tame cargo]

You can restart yep

[hollow pebble]

do i change 3 on the timeline?

[tame cargo]

Follow the timeline guide well

[hollow pebble]

ah okay sweet

[tame cargo]

Any error like this = timeline wrong

[hollow pebble]

and fixing the time line is just a reset? keep reseting the time line till it lines up?

sorry new to this, where was the timeline guide again

[tame cargo]

No

It will work once you get how it works

Pokemonrng.com

You'll keep failing otherwise

And so you're back to point 0 without cfw

[hollow pebble]

i have cfw and all that now

[tame cargo]

Yep

So use the tools to make your rng efficient

And not random

With timeline you'll never fail any rng

[hollow pebble]

just before i jump in does it take long to learn time lines?

about to sleep if it does

if its in under 10 ill try it lol

what you reckon lol

wait youre saying the time line was wrong before @tame cargo . We lined up the time line perfect and it was matched with all the steps from that guide. when we hit a, it went forward 3 frames as i hit a

[tame cargo]

Hold A + Unpause

Oh wait you're doing the 1st or 2nd poipole

5NPC or 8 ?

[wet otter]

5

[hollow pebble]

2nd poipole 5 npc

[tame cargo]

Oh yeah nevermind it's the bad one

[wet otter]

You received Poipole! v

[hollow pebble]

we pressed A to unpause

[tame cargo]

Do a few tries it's not stable

[hollow pebble]

ah okay

[wet otter]

Right

[tame cargo]

You'll either

See a common delay

[wet otter]

I did unstable for challenge and got shiny

It's possible

[tame cargo]

Or just hit it with default delay

It's not difficult at all

[wet otter]

Just not guaranteed like others

[hollow pebble]

id say i agree not difficult

but being first time just clunky

[wet otter]

Right

You'll get it man

[hollow pebble]

one question thats not clear on the guide

when creating time line, am i entering the current safe F frame i landed on into the "creatre timeline" before calculate

for example this is standard what is filled

im on framse 4448

do i put the number into

here and then create? or leave as is and then calculate

so replace 3600 with the now paused 4448 safe F frame and then calculate? @wet otter @tame cargo

again.... same frame lined up and a later mon

[clear pivot]

when you have create timelines selected the box for your safe frame appears

the number next to the create timelines option determines how many frames from the timeline are displayed

basically the maximum amount of time youre willing to wait

[hollow pebble]

so would i change that number next to create timelines or it wont really matter?

its this first bit thats getting me

[clear pivot]

you change the number in the current frame box

[hollow pebble]

current

[clear pivot]

you can leave the number next to "Create Timeline/s" as is if you get a result you want in the results

[hollow pebble]

where is the current frame box to change\

[clear pivot]

.

when you select create timelines it replaces the frame range

[hollow pebble]

yeah i get that part

but step 1 of step2b says input the current frame after reaching a safe frame

so for example im paused on 2396 being a safe frame

do i just simply hit create timeline and calculate now?

or where would i input the current frame as it says?

sorry its late and new tothis

[clear pivot]

get to a safe frame

select create timelines

enter your current frame into the current frame box

click generate

[hollow pebble]

oh

so when i hit create timelines

a new current frame tab appears?

this just appeared when i hit create timelines

enter it in there?

[clear pivot]

yes

[hollow pebble]

ok ty done that

if it does still jumpforward when i hit A

do i adjust or just keep trying

[hollow pebble]

ggs

thanks @wet otter

[tame cargo]

Reminder on #rules

The swearing bot us going crazy

[wet otter]

@hollow pebble did you get it?

Just woke up

And np!

[hollow pebble]

yeah and a 5iv perfect type null lmao

thanks hey, was aids to set up but easy as when sorted

[hollow pebble]

are there any tricks to the ultra beasts

like pheramosa?

i saw you cant hunt xer and nihl on rng

[tame cargo]

wrong lol

that's huge bs with people now knowing how to rng

there're the same.

I've done 7 Xurkitree in a row, without calibrating

without all the stupid steps people are missleading into

[wet otter]

@tame cargo can you without leap

[hollow pebble]

Is it lol, I went off one of the old blissy videos on YouTube apparently something with the flicks in the background. But if it’s possible awesome! What do you suggest for them?? Just set up as per usual like I did for poipole???

I also find that no matter if it was poipole or null, I had to pause on the frame BEFORE the one I aimed for, as when I hit A It would advance and tick the next one

Would appreciate advice on the beasts, especially those two. If not then just a point in the right direction to a guide or whatever

[tame cargo]

Timeleap

[hollow pebble]

Can you give any explanation or point where the guide is? Word on it’s own can mean a million things and isn’t specific

[tame cargo]

Pokemonrng.com

Should be the reflex to check for anything

You have the key word, you look at it boom a guide

Better to use one effective word than 100000 sentences to end up to the same point

[hollow pebble]

I do think you forget peoples knowledge isn’t the same as yours and are new to this going in blind, generally you seem very blunt and it just seems like others come across easier to learn from

Like I get it, explain it a 1000 times it gets annoying but idk just seems odd

But yeah just even say check the website, wasn’t sure if it’s on there or not

Thanks

[tame cargo]

Don't worry I don't except people to have the same knowledge. I just hope pokemonrng.com is the reflex for that case since you discovered timeline that way haha

Don't forget to do 2nd encounter on UB

[hollow pebble]

2nd encounter?

[hollow pebble]

see like you say check the website

then is says st like this, use the plaza? like how? what do i do? such a simple guide with not clear instructions on the webstie

[clear pivot]

those places have high npc counts

while in those locations you will advance frames very fast

festival plaza is easiest since it’s portable but iirc hauoli is technically more npcs

[hollow pebble]

see that makes sense

[clear pivot]

rnging ultra beasts the first time you encounter them is unstable (iirc because it does something special the first encounter)

[hollow pebble]

thanks for explaining, i try not to be rude but the other bloke is too blunt and the website isnt very detailed on some parts

[clear pivot]

so make sure you’re found and fought it at least once before before trying to rng

[hollow pebble]

ooh okay, would i fight and leave the world (wormhole) then return to rng it?

[clear pivot]

yeah

I don’t remember the specifics but I would just battle & kill it then fully find it again

[hollow pebble]

ooh you can kill, i was just gonna try run

i suppose not legends so they have multiple

very new to gen 7 tbh

played trough till omega, then stopped till switch

[clear pivot]

yeah you get infinite ultra beasts if they’re from the ultra warp ride

[hollow pebble]

even after catching?

like you can have multiple?

[clear pivot]

the only ones they are limited are poipole/stakataka/blacephalon

yes

[hollow pebble]

huh there you go

thanks for that

so legends are fairly easy to hit, and ub just a bit harder?

[clear pivot]

iirc UBs are more consistent with timeleap because they are an A press rather than holding up

[hollow pebble]

also i dont have PCalc

is it important to get?

says i need it in the guide, but then never mentions it in any single steps lmao

is it hard to leap???

[clear pivot]

if you’re using pokereader that should be fine

[hollow pebble]

ah okay cool

[clear pivot]

timeleap is basically just two A presses

the only thing difficult about it is understanding the concept

[hollow pebble]

yeah the guide is much longer than the others

[clear pivot]

though actually I’m not sure if pokereader has been fixed for timeleap lol

#poke-reader-dev message

I think this is supposed to fix it but no one’s confirmed in that channel if it’s working fine

[hollow pebble]

guess ill have to figure it out

thanks anyways, been alot more helpful
