I know that they're dependent on the seed, but I can't hear my pitches (they're silent) whereas I know often times people can hear the pitches. Just makes it easier to follow along.

Add keypresses if you haven't already, or search other years.
You have to make a noise into the microphone when you record it.
thanks! I i didn't think changing the year did anything. like in 4th gen, it only changes the delay
also, when i did the calibration, i did not need any key presses. will adding 1 not mess it up?

Nope, keypresses don't affect Timer0.
Ok, one more question:
can the event meloetta be shiny?
can the event meloetta be shiny?
Wow, I feel like an idiot. I thought it was supposed to be silent. My Timer0 is trolling me super hard on Virizion right now. I was able to get Cobalion and Terrakion just fine but Virizion is being a major pain.
I just tried again and hit my timer because my Virizion's attack IV can only be 31 if I hit it and I followed the Chatot pitches perfectly down to my frame (168), yet it wasn't shiny. Agh.
thanks, now that's less time i have to waste.
So I want to make sure I'm doing the wonder card RNG right, to be sure that it's not just my timer0 that's a problem
seed:
35B90E383F062349, frame 86
When copy/pasted into the main window of RNG reporter, the starting frame is 53 and the desired frame is 84, so 32 chatot advances (that includes the starting frame)
I keep my hold buttons pressed down BEFORE entering the game and then release as soon as the game freak animation starts. This is correct, right?? I'm not too sure about how long to hold the buttons
I enter the game 1 second before the target time.

If you're listening to the pitches, make sure you stop one frame before your target, because when you hear a pitch, you've already "used" that frame of the RNG and you're actually on the next one.
Ok, cool.
Also I'm about to go up against Reshiram in black and I was wondering if there was anything special that I need to do? cos the game forces you to save befor you're able to check the nature etc... I'm really nervous cos there's no second chances with Reshiram...
Is there a way to deduce the nature, IVs etc while you're battling it?
Yeah I figured that one out when I saw my seed and timer were correct. I'm gonna try to RNG my Meloettas and figure out how to do the breeding. Otherwise, seems like I've finally figured all of this out. I really really appreciate the help. I've RNG'd wild Pokemon too to make sure I was doing everything correctly.
From what I understand, the amount of timer0's actually varies per DS system, with more being on a DSi than on a DS/DSlite.
What DS system are you using?

So, I've been having difficulty RNGing the Zoroark in Lostlorn forest. I'm quite sure that I'm not doing anything wrong in the process, but I'm worried it might not count as a stationary. So, before I include any special info I'd just like to ask, that Zoroark is a stationary encounter right?

That Zoroark is a stationary encounter with a few restrictions - it is forced female and cannot be shiny.
Oh, yeah I knew that much. Thanks, I'll try again now.
Any truth in this guys?
It's true for BW2. Turning on the C-Gear just advances the IVRNG frame instead of re-seeding it based on delay like BW1 does, so you can just use a standard seed starting on frame 25 (the PID frame still advances constantly while the C-Gear is on, though).
If you trip the step counter, it won't be on frame 25.
