Oh really? It would be interesting to see them but it seems a bit late to be introducing them now. Oh well, maybe we'll get an arc about them.
No. Luck based things are just terrible and usually badly designed.

If you enter your seed then click the "Calculate Initial PIDGRNG Frame" button like in this picture the "Starting Frame"(on the left of the picture above where you put the seed) will change from 1 to your actual starting frame.
Wait, do I need to find my ID and SID to get this to work right? I didn't see that as a step in the guide, but I just noticed those were sections in the profile part of the tool. Because I'm STILL not able to get this to work right, and that's about all I can think of that would be screwing things up.
You only need to enter your ID/SID if you're looking for shinies so that isn't what's screwing you up. Are the results you're getting at least consistant? Maybe you're just advancing it the wrong number of times. Also did you make sure to check the Black White 2 box under the Calculate Initial Frame button?
Edit: I guess there's also a check box for memory link now too. If you've done a memory link make sure that box is checked as well.

Well considering they are starting the Unova league in Japan pretty soon...they need something to fill in all that time before gen 6!

They might as well go big and make a movie tie in as well.
Did those. I think I just got really close, as the one I got seems to match to the one one frame before what my target frame is. Do you count when you first enter a Chatot summary page when advancing frames? I've been counting that and then each flip afterwards, then exiting out.

I'm half expecting a Genesect/ Plasma arc for the anime, with the next movie going all-out with Gen VI stuff.
Wouldn't be the first time they tease a movie with a Pokemon that isn't in it; Lugia and Ho-oh were in the very first teaser for the Zoroark movie.
Yes the first time you enter does count so you're doing that right. If you keep hitting one frame before your target then try just advancing one more time. Strange things like that happen sometimes so just adjust for them.
Yup, did that and I finally got it after a try or two! I now have a hasty Genesect with 31s in everything but special defense, where it has a 30! Hooray!
So, I'm assuming I don't have to calibrate ever again if I'm using the same DS and game cart?
That's pretty much a tradition. I recall Team Rocket capturing a Rayquaza in the opening of some movie, even though they weren't featured on it.
Yes, but I recommend taking a screenshot of your seed/parameter information in case you lose your data somehow, since that will save time.
Yup, you only have to calibrate it once. If you decide to RNG again you can use that same info so make sure you save it.
Congrats on the Genesect!
Man, the pokedex is awesome sometimes:
"A Magikarp living for many years can leap a mountain using Splash. The move remains useless, though."
Also, the "forms" page is both neat and devious. Offering a way to show if you've seen all the forms/shiny versions of a pokemon! Crazy!
Though I also noticed that the Size/Weight comparison to a human is gone, which was pretty much my favorite part back in Sapphire.
Edit: Hooooooooly crap! Just hit Murkrow's page, and it's a pokemon I got off the GTS from someone with a Japanese game. There's an option to open the Japanese page on the top screen! Wow!

I wish he would, it would make for a fun filler arc until they announce gen 6

Careful if it's one of the bouncing types.

I think we need at least 18 months before we get Gen 6 so that would help kill the wait.
They see me bouncin', I'm flailing...

Torchic always.
Agree.
Blaziken - Cacturne - Starmie for good type synergy.
And of course, gotta add Gyarados to the mix.

Treecko for me.
mmm... Mudkip.

You don't even know the meaning of madness...ohhhh yeaaaaaah!
You and your grass Pokemon.
Next person who suggests Mudkip or Treecko gets slapped with a dead Magikarp in the face.

Mudkip and Treecko are fine. Treecko could use some egg moves and tms/move tutors. Mudkip has a bunch of shitty accuracy moves when leveling up but eventually gets EQ naturally.
In game wise gen III fire/fighting starter is the worst of the three fire/fighting starters...but is still the best in the gen 3.

He's the best because he's a fighting chicken. Kung Pow Chicken! We'll ignore whatever his final form is but he's the best icon for what Pokemon is, cock fighting!

They really should go like
Grass/Fighting, Fire/Dark, Water/Psychic
For the starters next gen

It's pretty sad that regardless of whichever type pairs up with Grass out of those secondary types, it'll still have a x4 weakness.
fixedTreeko so you can end up with this
Alakazam and Thyplosion.

Treeko so you can end up with this
Pokémon: Cool People Edition, anyone?
The only problem with that is Dark is outright immune to Psychic so it's not exactly balanced

No secondary typing. It often makes their weaknesses worse.
