Hey @ItsLazyHunter Charicific Channel here and I wanted to ask How Do I REMOVE the Bad EGG in Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green

[@shawnalmeida889]

How can you check the stats while you're still in the battle?

[@jms977]

Took me about 12 hours over the course of 3 days and a couple different TIDs, but seeing shiny Treecko pop out was so worth it! One tip I learned that may help a lot of people is, if you notice you are consistently hitting one or two frames early/late, do not adjust EonTimer further; small adjustments like that seem to throw it off. If you’re calibrated and always hitting, say a frame early, just adjust your target frame a frame later. So much more consistent that way! Great video!

[@ItsLazyHunter]

Nice work!

[@Hitman9305]

The options menu at the "new game" screen can set your text speed to fast if you don't want to make a save file and then another one. The eon timer has a pretimer that will do a countdown for when you are resetting. So you don't really need that other timer if you don't want it. Also if you click the start button on eon timer you can use the space bar to stop and restart it if you'd rather have a keyed start/stop.

[@MalikJ.O]

Hey, i tried this method a time ago where the gen 3 seed assistant wasnt there. Then after a time i had motivation again for the shiny and started to look for new tutorials. I discovered yours and you explained it so well. Especially with the explanation of the gen 3 seed assistant you helped me so much and now i got the shiny treecko. Thanm you very much enjoying your content 🙏

Great video, I like the Eon timer for the per-timer, helps a lot with using a handheld game

[@luisespina1249]

If you're playing on an emulator on the same PC with access to tools like Finder and Timer, it seems logical that someone could program the timer to automate an "A" input perfectly each time. This would eliminate human error and ensure consistent performance. It’s a straightforward task for a programmer, leveraging automation scripts or simple macro software to achieve precise timing. The fact it hasn't been widely adopted after all these years is weird to me. Like we have software that could be calibrated to anyone’s game and somehow “magically” know exactly what stats/nature/shiny modifier each frame is until eternity. But there is yet to be an “auto A” program 🤯

[@ns-tech1304]

[@Kredian]

I did this. It took me a while to get the right frame (1.5 hours of resets) but my frame was the first secret ID I tried! Frame 899. Thanks for the guide!

[@ItsLazyHunter]

Awesome congrats 👏

[@shiny_himself]

Cool video - very thorough! I have a hard time getting my head around people shiny hunting these starters without RNG manipulation. If they get unlucky (e.g. they get a TID&SID like yours on frame 1000) and they would need to wait 3+ mins for the first shiny frame, does that mean they are never realistically going to get a shiny? Assuming that a non-RNG hunger would under no circumstances wait 3 mins in front of the bag after starting the game? Or do those non-RNG hunters do a full reset of the game every once in a while to make sure they did not get unlucky with their TID/SID?

[@ItsLazyHunter]

I agree with you, doing this without RNG Manipulation on Emerald is just not doable in the long run. Seed is always 0 and you can't SR everytime because you're closest shiny frame might be 5 minutes apart. In Gen 3, full odds it's only doable on Ruby & Sapphire, unless you're very lucky on Emerald.

[@KentaZX]

I just started trying this out recently and every time I hit the button, I'm always one or two frames early. Did hit the exact frame a couple times though but have not found the correct secret ID with the shiny yet.

[@SuperFewer37]

😅 after my 1st SID attempt, i overthought what part of the video i should have jumped back to. So would 14:11 be a reasonable place to jump back to?

[@justinlevesque8417]

Question for yourself or anyone else who has been successful doing this while playing on a gameboy SP, is there a way to become more accurate with hitting the frames (I know skill issue) I seem to be off by at least 10 or so most of the time, just wondering if I’m bad or if there is something I can be doing to make it easier on myself?

[@PokeArtistAce]

So I've been trying to do this for a bit, watching all sorts of videos and whatnot. I don't know what is wrong with my timing because I keep getting like 20+ frames off the normal attempts. I am practicing the 950 frames by just resetting at the starting pokemon to see if I am hitting the right one. I don't know why I am hitting so far from the target since I feel like I am hitting it at the time it ends. Granted I don't know if it's the beginning of the beep you need to hit or the end. Another thing I've been trying to figure out is let's say I've gotten the time down to where I have it calibrated and am now hitting the frame/ close to the frame I need. If I were to reset for a ID frame, so the 1000, would keeping the calibration work?

[@justinlevesque8417]

Hey did you end up finding a solution to this? I’ve been having the same problem

[@PokeArtistAce]

@@justinlevesque8417 so basically eon timer works like this, when you press the start button it only begins the timer when you click off of the button. So even if you hold the button it won't start until you released. Also when rolling for the seed when you make your character there is no lag, so it shouldn't need calibration in the beginning. I just adjusted my timer for what I needed and didn't calibrate it to be honest. So if I hit 100 frames after my target I would subtract 100 from my timer.

[@ramblinjay3816]

So what exactly do you do if you hit the same frame again? Just repeat it?

[@yokofox33]

I'm using a Japanese copy of Emerald. If I am aiming for frame 1000 on the Researcher do I still use the starting frame of 950 in the Eon/FlowTimer or is there a different one for a Japanese copy? I have been trying for weeks with no luck and I'm usually somewhat precise on my RNGs for Ruby/Sapphire. I'm using a handheld GBA for the RNG.

[@princeofpersia2161]

I can confirm that this method also works with android emulator MyBoy 1.8.0 I did not use the save states from MyBoy but instead saved using the pokemon emerald game, also I used the softreset method of pressing a b select and start at the same time while activating eon timer on my laptop. To find my SID I didnt go through all that testing though I used pkhex to analyze my .sav savefile and then found the shiny starter I wanted and proceeded to encounter it after approximately 2 to 3 hours I gained quite a lot of exp regarding how to do this stuff on an MyBoy emulator so If you have any question regarding this feel free to reply tot this comment if youtube actually sends me the notification for your reply I will try my best to help you or answer any questions ! 🍉🐢

@@CheqMaSwag The Soft Reset Method: With one hand you press the A B SELECT Buttons at the same time and with your other hand you click on start on Eon Timer.

[@HenryXLII]

Something that has always confused me about this is the recalibrating. How come you're adjusting the timer whenever you mistime it? Wouldn't it make more sense just to try getting the timing again? (Genuine question here, recalibrating obviously works for this, I just want to understand why it works.)

[@goldenslaughterer]

Hey bro, I had the very same issue and I was going crazy but I think I now know the reason why - I am playing on an emulator which while probably close to the 60fps may be slightly above (saw some people getting like 60.18fps or something). I kept getting super high shiny frames, like 10k or above which I still kept going for but I was way off on all of them (like 100+ frames late sometimes), but it's probably that because of the slightly higher framerate I was going through the frames quicker than I should, I finally bothered to adjust the eon timer by putting in the frame hit and what do you know... I finally started hitting what I should, already managed to rule out 2 SID and I was just 1 frame off another one. Didn't think it would make that big of a difference but it does, if you give it another go try that aswell and let me know

It should not impact the RNG as long as you have the time to enter the game and open the bag

[@gugalldiznii383]

ah okay. so the frames start as soon as the game loads; from the copyright screen. I'm gunning for a female Torchic and hopefully a nature that doesn't hinder it lol. I have restarted from a new game about four or five times but already the closest shiny female is 34,316 frames which is about 9 minutes and 35 seconds. in past attempts it was 60K or 140K or 300K frames away. on like the third day without completely restarting for a new TID and rewatching this video I learned to recalibrate the eon timer and I landed on the target frame after about five hours into my shift (my job has a lot of downtime lol) but while all the stats and nature lined up with what the seed assistant shows the only thing that wasn't true in the game was the shiny-ness. idk if, while calibrating, I should just insert each frame hit without clearing it or just keep updating the calibration with the frame hit. but yeah according to the stats and gender I hit the target frame. but since it's not shiny imma try a different SID from the researcher
