I am currently trying to manipulate heatran in legends arceus, and I am not able to find a matching group seed for the two heatran seeds i received from the sysbot. I put the file path, where the pa8s are, into the seed finder script and all i get are 2 group seeds for the individual heatran seeds but no matching group seed. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

I am using all the tools provided in billo's legends arcues guide. Followed everything in the guide and was able to get the script to work on linqpad. Not sure what other context is needed but I am willing to provide screenshots if necessary. Sorry for the longwinded explanation lol . Thanks as well!

Can you show any relevant screenshots please?

Were you capturing one Heatran -> dumping it -> resetting game (to put yourself back in Coastlands) -> advancing seed -> capturing the following Heatran -> dumping that?

Yea that is what I was doing. Sorry for the delayed response

#

You should get a group seed output then

#

Take your time responding, doesn't bother me

Strange, have you only attempted this once or is this happening every time?

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 6:39 AM

#

ive done it twice only

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 6:40 AM

#

Can you try again from a fresh seed? Id like to eliminate potential user error

#

Yea, that means heading back to jubilife and back to the coastlands right?

Go to Cobalt Coastlands
Head inside Heatrans cave and save
Capture it, then head back to Jubilife
- Do not save
Initiate a dump trade with a bot
Show the bot your Heatran to get the file
Reset the game
Advance the Heatran seed
- This is done by knocking it out, it instantly respawns
Capture the new Heatran
Show that to a bot to get the file
Place both Heatran files in your folder and run the script

Yes

#

save inside heatran's cave?

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 6:43 AM

#

Yeah, iirc it is generated upon cave entry

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 6:43 AM

#

Ok will do thanks!

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 6:43 AM

#

If this works for you I'll update my guide to explicitly state that you should go inside a cave if your legendary is in one

#

Ty! Take your time, I'm available for the next ~3 hours

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 6:45 AM

#

Ok good to hear and thank you for your help!

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 6:45 AM

#

Please ping me if you are successful or still run into issues 😄

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 6:46 AM

#

OK!

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 6:47 AM

#

I suspect that if you saved outside the cave on the above attempt, you generated two Heatran that aren't associated with each other

#

~~Which would be my bad~~

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 6:49 AM

#

Yea i was saving at camp and would reset there and travel back to the cave to capture/battle it

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 8:20 AM

#

@bleak warren saving inside the cave did help me find my matching group seed, thanks! But I think I still have one more question. I see that there are two lines of code that have the GenderCompare variable which one do I change to 127. Is it the one inside the "if" statement or the one that has the "int" before it.

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 8:29 AM

#

Line 12, the one at the top beginning with int

#

Glad it helped! I updated that step in the guide to be more clear

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 8:31 AM

#

Tysm! Seems like I did my advances correct

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 8:32 AM

#

Good stuff

#

GL with your Heatran

honest ferry Mar 28, 2025, 8:37 AM

#

@bleak warren Sorry just need one more clarification. In order to get something like 0 ivs in attack would i keep the iv like this != 0? Also after I do that would i need to remove "//" from the return after the iv line?

bleak warren Mar 28, 2025, 8:44 AM

#

If you want an exact IV it should be == iirc

#

You should also be able to do >= (greater than or equal to)

#

And yes, // is how comments are labelled in C#, you want to remove on lines you want to activate

#

If you experiment with this you'll see what I mean
