Automated Soft reset Machine?

[Cosmic121]

Hey, all long-time Pokemon fan here. I love shinies I cannot get enough of them but I have no patience in hunting them. I suck at RNG manipulation and wondered if there was an application or script that 100% automates Soft resets for emulators and real hardware. Specifically speaking I'm looking for something that can do either Gen 3, Gen 4, Gen 5, or all 3.  I understand there are more "quicker" ways to get shinies but I want to try to get these as legally as possible. so they will forever survive in the bank and so forth. Ideally, I want this program to be able to run 100% independently so I can still "hunt" while I sleep. I think Python would be best for it to be programmed in but I know not a lick of it. I've seen Aurdino boards running a similar type of thing but on real hardware instead of emulators (with legally dumped ROM files)  anyhow I hope someone can help me out!

I feel like doing it on real hardware would be pretty tedious, how would you check if a Pokemon is shiny?

On emulators you can eventually work with Lua Scripts. Just use the RNG scripts as a base and edit them to automate the operations until a specific encounter (might check for Shiny PIDs) is found.

There’s a raspberry pi board + clamp that can do it for you on a 3DS, if I’m not mistaken. 
 

However, whether it’s still sold is another story.

I was asking about emulators but I figured it out thank you though!

It technically should exist for emulators, since people do TAS on emulators
