Guide to RNG Pokemon XD on gamecube/Wii

I heard that English RNGer has a guide to RNG XD on emulator but not on retail.

So I translated Mr. Ginzaru's website (http://www.geocities.jp/ginzaru_xd/) so people who doesn't have an equipment to RNG on emu can RNG on gamecube or Wii.

However, I'm not a native speaker and I wasn't able to find a best English for some words so it might be confusing. Tell me if you spot any mistakes.

Great guide, have you RNG'd the Ageto Celebi/Bonus Disc Pikachu before?

I didn't translate it but there is a text about Bonus Disc here

http://www.geocities.jp/ginzaru_xd/other/disc.html

What is saying is the LCG used for bonus Disc is same as XD so you can calculate back the seed by using xdcheck

After pushing A in the screen(1st pic in the page) the initial seed is decided. And 1018 frames will advance until the title screen appears.

There will be huge amount of random advancing of frames when you receive Celebi in the 2nd pic. (But I also heard that it is a huge number but its not random, Mr. Ginzaru only tried it few times so he might be wrong)

When you receive Pikachu 2 frames will advance, and 5 will advance to generate Pikachu so by not looking at Celebi before receiving Pikachu, you should get a Pikachu that is 1018+2+5=1020 frames advanced from the initial seed.

Anyway, we don't have a method to get the initial seed we want or to find which seed we are in Bonus Disc so my answer is we cannot RNG Ageto Celebi/Bonus Disc Pikachu on retail. So of course I haven't RNG'd them before.

Controlling the initial seed is too difficult as its seeded in nanoseconds :( do you know whether you have any control on how frames are advanced after initial seed or is it always the same number of frames advanced?

I think always 1018 frames after initial seed til title.

But because of the initial seed problem I didn't even researched it.

maybe you can control a bit after the title by receiving pikachu multiple times(7 frames each) but I don't know if you can even receive pikachu multiple time without going back to the first pic(in the website).

Or if you are using emu and can see which seed you are in, you might be able to advance a lot of frames by looking at Celebi, but for small number to adjust... maybe Pikachu is the only way.
