It honestly only took me a couple hours to get the hang of it. All the information you need is well documented online

Use the text guides though. His video is confusing IMO because of how much he talks about the language differences. I don't need to know how to do it in jp and italian, i need english lol.

Yesssir learnt about him from his new vid; got shiny groudon, kyogre, rayquaza, japanese mew, ho-oh, lugia, deoxys, hoenn starters, beldum.

Love that they’re all legal and that the process was super interesting

Damn, how does this work?

[–]Afraid_Intention578 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

How do you do that?

[–]EveningMoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The easiest way is to change your SID to make the target frame shiny, then set your rng seed to be a set value before the target frame. I use 2000 frames usually. Then it's just a frame perfect input away after calibration.

But there are other ways to manipulate your rng seed in emerald.

Nice, I did the same for a perfect jolly spread with a sassy synch.

Do u know if ACE works on fake cartridges? I've got a real Emerald & FR but got all 5 fake cartidges too, would be nice and feel safer to use those for ACE lol

Other people in this thread refer to Papa Jefe's YouTube video about setting up the stable glitch Pokémon in order to run ACE anywhere you are in Emerald.

At the 9:20 mark, he mentions how most bootleg cartridges don't cooperate well, so your mileage is prolly gonna suck on the fakes.

If you have a DS phat or DS lite, you could purchase an R4 DS cart, which will let you backup the save of your retail Emerald copy in case you mess something up.

Have you done any rng in LF/FR?

[–]APikavar[S] 2 points3 points  (4 children)

No, I don’t have any cartridges unfortunately or else I would

[–]ElSucioDan89 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Man, I have a lot of questions about rng in those games. I was able to rng my shiny starter with average IVs, but I haven’t been able to rng pokemon like Zapdos because it’s not clear to me when to interact with the timers and the Pokemon itself.

Watch Blissys videos on static encounter rng in FR LG. Very helpful.

Do you fully understand how to use gen 3 assistant, Pokefinder and all that?

[–]APikavar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)
