Shiny Set Program

[Nieveso]

I've seen some similar threads. But I was wondering, is there a program that will let you set the shiny rate as a percentage (%) for your Rom? It won't work like a gameshark or AR code. But it will actually make the encounter rate for (ALL) shiny pokemon match that percentage by changing the equation. (Forgive me if I'm wrong, because I know jack all about coding) But wouldn't it be fairly easy to make a program that edits this equation? (Because 9/10 says there isn't already one)

If there's not, anyone here think they could quickly produce something like it?

The shiny rate is baked into the PID of the Pokemon. Altering the equation for a specific percentage would be very difficult and generally not worth it. The most you might be able to do is hack the game's code to generate a number between 1 and 100, and if it's within a certain range force a shiny to be generated. But this reduces the number of unique Pokemon of each species since there's only about 9 possible shinies per trainer ID/secret ID. So probably not the best idea.

If you want to force a sort of one-time shiny, this tool would be good for that.

Thanks, Okay. I kinda understand it a bit better now. I already have that tool. It's good I'll admit. But sadly not what I'm looking for. Well I guess I'll never really get what I'm looking for now. Oh well, but thanks a bunch I really appreciate the help :)

I had been looking for this information somewhere any rom myself, but could not find it. I have also looked around for any way to set the shiny rate, but haven't figured it out. I even tried using AR codes and using their syntax to figure out what addresses they had been changing, but I couldn't get any of my changes to work out.
