Manipulate TID/SID Emerald

[chilly flume]

So I'm trying to RNG my TID/SID to get a 6iv shiny legend later

[crude shell]

Bot tid. Rng sid as any method 1. Search for the pid of the 6 ivs mon you want, paste it here https://legofigure11.github.io/tools/sid-for-shiny/ and input any tid you want, is going to display the 8 sid compatible for your spread to make it shiny.

[fast token]

@chilly flume did you search the spread in searcher tab of pokefinder?

If not, do this first

[chilly flume]

Yes, instead of generator

[fast token]

Screen pls

[chilly flume]

I have hit this frame on my main save file and got the 6iv kyogre, I want to hit it on a new save file but for a shiny

When I get home I'll do that

[fast token]

Ok

[chilly flume]

Can I follow the SID for shiny guide?

[fast token]

Don't think there is one for Emerald yet

[chilly flume]

What about the other guide I have mentioned?

[fast token]

Which one

[chilly flume]

https://github.com/hourglasseye/gen3tidsidframefinder

[fast token]

I mean this is not a guide

Well it is, but it is pretty outdated

[chilly flume]

Ok, there's no update since this guide

[fast token]

You have to use mgba

And bot for a tid, if you want a tid

Or just use any tid and rng the sid

[chilly flume]

I have been using MGBA, I thought vba would be easier

[fast token]

Vba is crap for emulation

[chilly flume]

That guide works on mgba?

Where's the ram watch in mgba?

[fast token]

I mean you have the Lua...

[chilly flume]

Yea, I thought why use this ram watch if I can see this information on lua

[fast token]

Ofc you can

But again, don't use this guide

Its outdated. Just use ids window of pokefinder

[fast token]

This tool was made by an user, me and my brother

It is useful, but the guide is really outdated

[chilly flume]

Is it intuitive? To use ids windom of pokefinder?

[fast token]

Yes

[chilly flume]

I'll give it a try later

[chilly flume]

I'll try it now
Btw @fast token I got a 6iv modest kyogre using the painting rng method. Really cool method

[fast token]

Yep I know!

Nice rng 😉

[chilly flume]

Dont kill, but you meant this tab right?

[fast token]

Correct

[chilly flume]

I need to check on searcher what I need to hit a shiny anyway, right?

[fast token]

On searcher you search the spread and it's pid

[fast token]

Then you put the pid here

To find the ids combo. Then you have to rng for them

If you don't care about the tid, you can just rng the sid

Tid will need botting

[fast token]

Wrong

You have to filter for the pid

So the program will search a combo for the pid of the spread

[chilly flume]

It did give me a lot of results

[fast token]

It's normal

You have anyway to filter for the pid of the spread

[chilly flume]

I have changed to filters PID, and have kept the max advances as the PID

[fast token]

Pls screen

[fast token]

If you do Win+Shift+S you'll be able to do screenshots

By selecting the pokefinder windows

Do this and make a screen of the entire pokefinder window

Cause you're cutting the right part

[chilly flume]

Oml Im so dumb

I just realised the big box next to filters is editable

LOL

[fast token]

Yeah ahahaha

You have to put the values there

So you can filter for them

[chilly flume]

Let me check

[fast token]

There you have to input the PID of the spread you want to make shiny

[fast token]

Here you put the pid as max advsnces

Wrong

The pid is just the pid, not related to advances

[chilly flume]

This RNG as any delay?

[fast token]

Pls

Update pokefinder

😭

https://nightly.link/Admiral-Fish/PokeFinder/workflows/windows.yaml/master/PokeFinder-windows.zip

[chilly flume]

Im downloading, I thought I had the latest version from admiral-fish

[fast token]

You have latest releases

This one is the nightly version

The new release will be out in some days tho eheh

[chilly flume]

nice 😄

so I click A on Well, I'll be expecting you later. Come see me in my POKEMON LAB"

[fast token]

you first have to check which is your tempTID

then you can search for the sid you need to hit and the correct advances

there you'll have to press A at the correct advances to rng the sid

[chilly flume]

Lua script says temporary tid is 8916

[fast token]

write it as tid

in the window

on the left part

on the right the pid

and put your current advances as initial

[chilly flume]

ok, I keep the PID on the right, and I have paused the game again and input the current advances as initial ok

[fast token]

save a state as explained in the readme of pokelua

it important that you save as it is explained there

[chilly flume]

ok, it gives me different results

[fast token]

what do you mean

[chilly flume]

when I input the temporary TID and 1996 as initial advance and click generate it changes the results

nvm, I understood

I think I did it

yea, I got it

[fast token]

sorry was afk

you got the sid and the tid?

[chilly flume]

Im updating pokefinder right now bro

I have checked everything

[fast token]

seems like you did it 😉

nice job

[chilly flume]

now I need to be careful to avoid overwriting my other save file with my other sucessfull RNGs

I think Ill use save states for this save file

[chilly flume]

@fast token Can I have two save files for the same game in mgba? If so how?
Happy New Year buddy

[fast token]

Rename them every time

But you can have both in the same folder
