While getting the starter, on your first attempt (if not shiny right away), ALWAYS check what you've hit in terms of SEED so you know if you're hitting even or odd delays. While I was getting TID/SID the delay was EVEN but in the starter manip it was ODD. Use "Generator" tab for this and check adjacent SEEDs like I did in the spreadsheet. You can also check the SEEDs on "Seed to Time" by hitting generate below and selecting desired seed above.
make sure the seed you picked is also shiny in the generator i found out after hitting my seed and then realizing that its not shiny in the generator while it was in the searcher same gender, trait, ivs, and characteristics but all that was different was that it wasnt shiny in the generator
This guide was the most clear out of any guide I've seen for getting the right target IDs, I appreciate it. That being said, when it comes to detecting if the starter is shiny, I have my sheet open and I've done all the formulas, but when plugging in each seed, none show the specifics of the starter I'm shooting for EXCEPT the initial seed I started with. Does that mean that my seed is already good to keep resetting for or am I misunderstanding that part? Instructions have been clear and helpful for the IDs but once the explanation started on the starter rng and seeds I started to not understand what to do once all the values are on the sheet
the values above and below on the sheet just show the nearby delays that you mightve hit if you didnt get the shiny you can check which seed you hit by matching trait and characteristics of the starter in the failed run with the adjacent seeds using the generator usually you dont need to match the ivs since most of the time there arent repeating traits and characteristics from my tries but one issue ive come across was that if you switch years to swap odd/even to match your target delay's odd/even it doesnt work what worked for me was legit changing my target to odd/even depending on what i was already hitting so if i was only hitting odd in like 2020 then i checked every target seed in "seacher" with "seed to time" and looked for one that hit odd delay in 2020 and went with that after that then i started excel after a couple of failed hit i got it but then my ds died cuz i didnt charge it lol
i was watching your video and i got my trainer and secret id to match but didnt hit the shiny starter on the first try. i opened an excel spreadsheet like you did to find adjacent seeds but im not quite sure as to what you did to complete this process and i cant read the text in the video. would possibly to type exactly what you did in excel? i would really appreciate it.
Hey I'm going as quick as I can but everytime I get to the news report bit and I press A it doesn't let me continue for another few seconds is there any easy work arounds for this?
I don't get why do you have to check the starter's nature every time you don't get the shiny? It doesn't even match with the seed in your spreadsheet? For example: in the last part of your tutorial, you were aiming for the careful nature seed, how did you get the timid shiny using that seed?
Dumb question if you can see your trainer id and sid on pksm on a modded 3ds, is there anyway to input those numbers to get your seed? I am just trying to get a shiny starter and just wondering if i could skip some steps.
i got the exact same id you got on your first attempt on my first attempt EDIT: I FINALLY GOT IT!!!!!!! my old save got wiped w/ my shiny turtwig and shiny shinx that i spent ages hunting for so i am so happy to have at least one back
I don't think you were able to explain how to calibrate the eon timer if you found the pokemon on a different seed. For me, my last two input in my seed was 7b which is what Im trying to hit but I was only able to hit 83 which is 4 frames away if we're basing this on by twos.
If I didn't miss the seed I would've got the shiny on the first attempt... I missed the seed a lot. You can see on my spreadsheet the adjacent seeds that I missed and I cover in the video the ways to hit the right ones, even if you're hitting odd/even delays. And when you say frames... There are 0 frame advances from the moment the seed is generated, I'm not sure what you mean by "4 frames away". Are you saying you encounter the starter Pokemon on the 4th frame advance from the moment the seed is generated?
It has to do with the delay. In this case, the seed matches the delay, same for even or odd. You can use seed to time like I did in the video in order to check if the seed you got matches an even or odd delay. If you got the type you wanted and missed by one or two delays you can just repeat until you get the shiny, otherwise calibrate it in EonTimer.
Hey man I was able to get a really good IV rash shiny chimchar and cute charm trainer ID thanks to you and Blissy’s vids! I did have a questions though: after getting to the post with my rival for the save step, can I set my text speed to fast and then save, or will this cause a frame advance?
Hi thanks for the feedback :) You can safely set your text speed to fast yes. Once you restart and go for the shiny starter you just want to hit the correct SEED
@@ItsLazyHunter ok that’s what I thought but I was afraid I would add a frame advance so I did it at mid speed 😅. I just confirmed my shiny charm glitch is working thx a lot man!
You'd had me in the first half and I managed to get the same ID, and I can only assume the right SID for the Cute Charm glitch. But you completely lost me in the second half. I don't think I have a good grasp of the delays (the whole even/odd thing throws me off) and I was unable to get a shiny starter
@@tylerparent-byram6233 may be a little late but what i did was just change my target seed so if you put the seed of your target into "seed to time" and you get an even delay (ex: 1010) you do a test to check what seed you landed on and then take the seed of the failed run and put it into "seed to time" if the failed run delay is even (ex: 1008) then you can keep trying until you get it you can even put the new delay into "delay hit" in eon timer if you need to but if you hit odd i recommend just changing to a different target in "searcher" cuz changing years didnt work for me so in short if you are hitting odd delays look for a target seed in "searcher" that is already odd and even delay if you are already hitting even you can check they delays by just copy pasting the target seeds into seed to time and final point make sure the seed you picked is actually shiny lol turns out sometimes "generator" shows not shiny while "searcher" does
Hello, I have a question I had successfully rng few shiny pokemon in platinum, but suddenly for some unknown reason, when I hit the correct seed, the frames was no longer 1, and the confirmation of capture almost changed to around 90. Since then, I have been in a place where there are no npc or roming legends, do you know what is going on?
Hi ! If i had the wrong delay, Do i need to change for Lower keybord for every try or juste one time ? I have only 5005 and 5007 when i want 5006... (Realy sorry for my bad english)
How can I find your discord to troubleshoot? I got the TID and SID, but I’m having trouble getting the shiny starter. I’ve played around with the year 2024 and 2023 for the even and odd delays as well as calibrating but can’t seem to land it.
I got my cute charm id but PokeFinder for gen4 won’t let me input it. It’s pretty unique: 00200 and the secret id’s 00197. I create the profile but it won’t let me begin both ids with zero. What should I do? Edit: I did use RNG reporter to get my id originally, so would I need to reset the save entirely to go for a new one?
If i get that trainer ID and secret id do i need a shiny starter to get the cute charm glitch? can i just trade for a pokemon that has it as long as i have the proper trainer and secret id?

Finally got my shiny female chimchar! It took a few afterwork evenings of trying but eventually it shined! Thanks for the tutorial
Glad I could help!
I finally got the PID i wanted after 2 try !! Thanks dude !
make sure the seed you picked is also shiny in the generator i found out after hitting my seed and then realizing that its not shiny in the generator while it was in the searcher
same gender, trait, ivs, and characteristics but all that was different was that it wasnt shiny in the generator
Im not even that interested in getting a shiny starter, but I got so immersed in this

you can check which seed you hit by matching trait and characteristics of the starter in the failed run with the adjacent seeds using the generator
usually you dont need to match the ivs since most of the time there arent repeating traits and characteristics from my tries
but one issue ive come across was that if you switch years to swap odd/even to match your target delay's odd/even it doesnt work
what worked for me was legit changing my target to odd/even depending on what i was already hitting
so if i was only hitting odd in like 2020 then i checked every target seed in "seacher" with "seed to time" and looked for one that hit odd delay in 2020 and went with that
after that then i started excel after a couple of failed hit i got it but then my ds died cuz i didnt charge it lol
thank you so much, I finaly got my shiny chimchar after more than 20 hours trying different tutorials and failing the process.

i hit my id and sid but can neither get the seed with the shiny nor any of the adjacent ones and i dont know why
Hi, best thing is to join my Discord and we can troubleshoot there :)
does this work on the 3ds? Because i dont think you can restart on it, so what should i do?

Did you attempt to get the starter? If so did you check adjacent seeds?
@@ItsLazyHunter So I tried it again today, and I'm not sure what I'm not understanding but this isn't working for me. Might just be above my head ☠️
@@tylerparent-byram6233 may be a little late but what i did was just change my target seed
so if you put the seed of your target into "seed to time" and you get an even delay (ex: 1010)
you do a test to check what seed you landed on and then take the seed of the failed run and put it into "seed to time"
if the failed run delay is even (ex: 1008) then you can keep trying until you get it you can even put the new delay into "delay hit" in eon timer if you need to
but if you hit odd i recommend just changing to a different target in "searcher" cuz changing years didnt work for me
so in short if you are hitting odd delays look for a target seed in "searcher" that is already odd and even delay if you are already hitting even
you can check they delays by just copy pasting the target seeds into seed to time
and final point make sure the seed you picked is actually shiny lol turns out sometimes "generator" shows not shiny while "searcher" does

ia there any way i can use pokefinder and eon timer on my phone for this or do i need a pc?
has to be on PC, there are no android/iphone versions for these programs
I tried putting the year and min delay with 8 on the PID but then Pokefinder just crashes everytime. Is there a bug here?
Try a previous version of PokeFinder. Latest release seems to have some bugs
Will this work on a modded New 3DS XL as long as I set the EonTimer to 3DS mode?
this is what im trying, and so far im not sure.
how to do I use the Mac alternative? I can't figure it out
Both apps are for Mac

you got a video to hunt legendaries en Diamond/Pearl? Great video 🎉 I got the glitch! (Anyone knows if I run from Palkia it will be after E4?)
i keep hitting the right delay but i always land on 15 seconds instead of 14 is there something i have to change or just keep trying
Change target second to one below

You can just "skip" the zeros in PokeFinder and insert 3 digits

As long as you get the right TID/SID you have the cute charm glitch, you don't need the starters, it's just an extra

How do I get the poke finder
can't you get it through the link?
damn i missed the stream again, good job with the shinies though
this one is an actual video 😂
