So I want to rng some wild encounters in BWB2W2 that are only available from swarms. Is it currently possible to search for seeds where I get the swarm encounter slot with Pokefinder somehow? (I know that a "regular" slot (usually) won't work because the swarm check seems to do an extra advancement, but is it maybe possible to do something with researcher "manually"?) I am mainly asking because I would prefer to use the SHA cache feature to search for those seeds.

i would like to know too, in Retail BW1
Are you sure they don't work as gen4?
Asking, cause I never tryed them
they don't
I'm done with them now (I used the rngreporter fork that can do most of the gen5 stuff), but for rnging all the other stuff I wanted I had saved a seed for a perfect shiny for each encounter slot, and all I tried didn't work, and didnt even give a shiny
my guess (didn't look at rngr code) is that its just a rand call similar to synchronize before the mon gets generated, which simply decides if the encounter slot will be overridden, which would explain why some of my seeds would no longer give a shiny, because the number of rng calls for the mon generation changes
i think its best if you search for wild pokemon (swarm) in rngreporter if you can
