During the Players Cup 3 stream, there was a code for a free Dream Ball: DREAMB1GPC3 It is valid until April 12th 2021. Source: https://twitter.com/SerebiiNet/status/1380947171567099905

You'd need to influence the vblank to occur at a different time while the game code is executing. Emulators don't all behave the same way (timing/efficiency). Different inputs on prior frames may cause extra/less code to be executed, altering the timing in which the vblank interrupt occurs relative to the PIDIV loop code. Think of it as two parallel processes; vblank and game-loop. vblank executes X frames per second, and the game loop gets paused whenever vblank is triggered, and a rand call happens. There is no reliable advice besides input spam on prior frames, to shift when a vblank happens. Nobody has profiled the game loop to show what player inputs can modify the assembly instructions executed per frame, or estimating when a vblank will occur based on the game loop code.

Use Bottle Caps to get the desired IVs. PIDs have been found to have a correlation with wild encounters, making any changes to a legal Pokemon will result in an illegal PID for now.

Hi there. I know that generally wild pokemon are generated by method 2 but method 4 can actually happen, especially with pokemon box. But I've just dumped my old sav of pokemon emerald and the only shiny I caught over 10 years ago has a PID and IVs that match the method 1, which is ever confirmed by the Pkhex. No such spread exists for method h1 without a synchronizer, just a plain method 1. But I've never seen any method 1 pokemon when doing rng abuse on the emulator, it just randomly switched to method 4 occasionally. So, how is the method 1 engaged for wild pokemon?

I don't know if this will help but these are some cheat codes I had for Black and White for the daycare. Pokemon White Instant Egg in Daycare (Press Select): Makes an egg appear at the Daycare instantly. 94000130 FFFB0000 B2000024 00000000 20021884 00000001 D2000000 00000000 Fast Egg Hatch This code will set the hatch counter to zero. 9218AB16 00004281 1218AB18 000046C0 D2000000 00000000 Pokemon Black Instant Egg in Daycare (Press Select): Makes an egg appear at the Daycare instantly. 94000130 FFFB0000 B2000024 00000000 20021884 00000001 D2000000 00000000 Fast Egg Hatch This code will set the hatch counter to zero. 9218AAF6 00004281 1218AAF8 000046C0 D2000000 00000000 Also, @theSLAYER do you have suggestions on how to do this?

I am talking about a normal gameplay I did on console over a decade ago. The predominant method is method 2, just like on emulator. When are methods H-1, 2 and H4 used? I only tested RSE and this is what I know, I am unsure about FRLG: Method 1: Legends and wilds (sweet scent and walking, no idea about rock smash and fishing) Method H1: Never? Maybe having a synch lead will trigger it? Method 2: Is this a thing? Maybe only walking? Method H2: Sweet scent, fishing, rock smash. No synch required. Method 3/H3: Not even reported on the rng reporter, is this a legend? Method 4: Legends (rare), wilds (walking at least) Method H4: Maybe having a synch lead will trigger it? After abusing the sav to shiny a method 4 spread, I can't seem being able to shiny that spread as method h4 even with a shynch.

Yeah according to @Admiral_Fish that is most likely due to the background music. It is well known that emulators (box included) cause method 4 because of the timings. Method 1 for grass encounters on a retail cart on a GBA should still be the most common.

Nope, just throwing it out there.
