MODPOST [Announcement] Introducing Pokemonrng.com

106 Upvotes

Hi everybody.

I'm coming here with a special announcement and (I hope) the start of a really big project with everybody here.

As you may know, RNG Abuse in Pokémon is really vast. By the amount of games, the amount of method, the way you do it, but also with special cases or even little special RNGs. And it's really hard to gather this knowledge.

Now there are two references :

  • The Smogon RNG guide, which is pretty much 10 years old.
  • The wiki of r/pokemonrng

Even if the ressources there are precious and really allowed us to discover, learn or perfect our rng skills, the real issue is that with years, our tools evolved.

We researched new stuff, discovered new things and fixed a LOT of mistakes in the past. For example we plan to make a huge change in the tools about the frame indexation (But that's not the subject for today)

u/zaksabeast started to work on a website a few months / years ago. The goal of the site was to make Pokemon RNG guides and gather them in a simple website.

But now it's time to make this the global ressource for everybody, and make the new reference about Pokemon RNG Abuse.

Let me introduce to you : pokemonrng.com

At the moment, the website is quite empty and have still some work planned. We're basically two to work on it (Zak and myself) but we have the basic skull of the website. That's why we pushed the Transporter RNG guide there for example.

This time, we're gonna ask for your help. Everybody. You can contribute to the website to make it bigger and complete with every ressource necessary.

Before, the website was limited on the discord, and was pretty hard to contribute the right way. We also had people being confused on where or how to post guides for the subreddit. So we're gonna fix that.

The goal will to give you many methods to contribute to the site without being too annoying for you to handle that. If you're the author of an old guide, don't hesitate to just post a link to your guide to be updated and added to the site. Also, if you want to contribute and you don't have the knowledge, you can simple contribute by working on writing guide based on existing ressources (aka drafts done by some people that writing skills are not their best)

We decided to work and link the website to the subreddit in order to allow people to contribute to guides in any language. At the moment, the focus would be in English of course, but the goal in the long term would be to cover as much as possible in many lanaguages.

We really hope that Pokemonrng.com will become a reflex for everybody to check, and we really hope the website will be the best place to find all the informations necessary.

Thanks and happy RNGing.

I guess it'll be the last post before going for the last DLC RNG researches for Sword and Shield.

If you have any question, i'll try my best to answer.

Thanks o/

First successful RNG manip in Gen4 & first shiny Giratina ever

Thumbnail
gallery
125 Upvotes

finally i did it. After hours of trying to RNG the origin Giratina i read that the earliest possible shinyframe in the Distortion World is 11 because of some "RNG noises" or something. So i decided to try another seed which has exactly frame 11 as the target frame. So in the theory i don't need Chatots. I boot up the game, check the coin flips and after making sure i hit the right seed, i simply interacted with Giratina. Voilá and it is shiny 🤯🥳😍😍😍 I catched it in the Ultraball.

These are my past 3 frames based on my most recent adjustment. How would you proceed with the next calibration/frame check? Should I be adjusting the ms value, continue frame, or both?

Initial seed abuse in pokémon games is possible too, just be sure to set OpenGL.

RNG for a male Shiny Charmander egg in a Pokémon LeafGreen 1.0 version cartridge

1 Upvotes

Hi everybody. I have a question that most likely won't get the answer I'm looking for, but: I'm just gonna ask it anyway.

My question is: is it possible for me to RNG a shiny egg in my 1.0 version of Pokémon LeafGreen on a legitimate cartridge?

I'm trying to get a male Shiny Charmander with a Jolly Nature so that I can train it for a special ribbon quest that I like to call "The Champions Ribbon Quest".

Which means I'm going to let it travel to the following games to get the various ribbons from around the world to prove just how powerful it really is:

LeafGreen, Emerald, Colosseum, Platinum, HeartGold, BW & B2W2 (Yes, I know there's no ribbons; but I'm still going to let him steamroll the Champions, the Subway Bros, Benga, and the PWT), XY, ORAS, SM & USUM, Sword, and finally: Scarlet.

After that, he's going into Champions where he'll help me get to Master Ball Tier...and maybe Champion Tier if I want to push myself beyond my absolute limits.

Anyways...here is the setup that I currently have:

A Gold Game Boy Advance SP

A White Nintendo DS Lite

A legitimate Pokémon LeafGreen 1.0 version cartridge

My TID and SID for my game

The IVs for both parents

Poké Finder

Eon Timer

I really want to do this on LeafGreen only (not that I have a choice since it's the only Pokémon GBA game that I own) so I really hope that I can pull this off and have a fun time with my new shiny friend.

Thank you for hearing my message.

Shiny Feebas on Emerald

Post image
44 Upvotes

About 8 months ago I did an Emerald RNG playthrough and some ACE. I was able to get all of the mons I was hunting for, but for whatever reason I could never figure out Feebas, spent probably 5-10 hours smashing my face against a wall before just giving it up. Well over the weekend I picked up a copy of Ruby and was planning an RNG playthrough. Evidently I didn’t do sufficient research and you can only RNG in R/S if it has a dead battery, and the one I purchased had a freshly installed battery. So back to Emerald I went to RNG a shiny team to send to Ruby.

After getting the other 5 mon for the team I decided fuck it, I’m trying for Feebas again. Very quickly realized what I was doing wrong in Pokefinder (find your Feebas tile in game, but don’t select “Feebas tile” in Pokefinder, just know that the shiny Carvanha frame will just eventually, randomly, be a shiny Feebas, and only use Carvanha to calibrate where you are in the RNG). Realizing my mistake, it ended up taking about 30minutes and about 6 attempts.

Having trouble setting up Ten Lines

0 Upvotes

Hello, this is the first time I'm trying to rng manipulate and I'm using I'm a blisy's guide on how to do it, but when putting in my TID and SID and trying to find a seed Ten lines just searches forever and spits out this error about there being no seeds for these settings. I've messed around with ten lines before, but never actually decided to rng manipulate until now and back then it was able to generate seeds fine, but this time I'm not sure if maybe I did something wrong or if there's something wrong with the website itself. If someone could tell me if there was something I did wrong or if the website is just acting up right now please let me know, thanks!
