to be quite honest i never expected anyone would really do this when i analyzed that mechanism (way back when pac was not hacked) or when i posted about the emerald rng bug. but thats besides the point i would not expected this to go as just another accepted trick either but i was wrong again...

it really depends on what you want to do with it i got a ps3 a week ago because of -little big planet and more sony stuff (team ico game/gow) -mgs4 -ability to watch torrented HD mkvs -free online -i am not really interested in the 360 exclusives reasons for 360 would be -price -i...

Christianity is not better than Islam or any other religion. Belive whatever you want that's fine for everyone as long as you follow some simple rules besides the bible or koran or whatever - don't annoy everone else. honestly we don't want to be saved by you! Don't bother! We probably...

if you are scared about the license agreement which is probably a leftover of their TOS for gmail etc anyway: use chromium snapshots http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/chromium-rel-xp/ no need to agree to anything there i tried it - and i like it so far but I can't be bothered...

no. it will still be the same. it only works the other way round if battery in rs dies it'll be like emerald

if it's shut down you get exactly the same series on random numbers again (in emerald) basically that is what my article talks about (first giving the theory and then showing that this actually happens by looking at a lot of caught legendarys and the amount of clones). the 2 years is if you keep...

almost the same says nothing at all. but anyway in theory having the exact clock time you had when starting the save (the game in rs but in case of rs it's internal clock time which you cannot change) would increase the chances of getting the exact same distribution again

One small correction: in the article i assumed that in rs the effect would also apply. this is not the case. I made a mistake when researching the rs seeding turns out that it does use a kind of real time to seed. in rs this only occurs if your battery has run dry and ONLY in that case. also in...

Yes and I hope anyone who understood my whole post should have an idea why. There probably is just one shiny in a reasonable time frame so you will have that one twice.

if they are all from emerald this topic should give you the answer. To summarize no it's not coincidence and you probably all reseted until you got the only decent Rayquaza distribution in that range

To your questions: 1. Yes, of course 2. actually restarting emerald sets the rnd back to the same state all the time. the only way to get other seeds is a) to wait a long time b) when starting new games to use different nicknames 3. to be honest other games are not that different but it does not...

okay let me make one thing clear: similar n does NOT mean similar iv looking iv. And similar iv does not mean similar n. In fact unless you do an exact caluclation you cannot approximate how far the states are away from each other. pokemon you catch at a similar time range will have a similar n...

to a limited extend also the other gba generation games. emerald is a little different (and a more simple to calculate) the general ideas also work with rsfl but they seed. maybe the distribution interval is a little bigger or smaller and because of the seeding you will have a random (but...

hmm yes that was not really clear i guess. What i meant was wait a little longer before you encounter or get your pokemon. Eg: dont always bootup, skip intro load, press a to start battle instantly. A good method to make sure you get something different all the time would be to wait one second...

the exact same ivs? not within a reasonable timeframe at least.
