The Item Printer can be gamed with the system clock! The first time you boot up the game, opening the Item Printer sets the RNG seed based on the system time. For 10 rare balls: May 20, 2016, 2:11:13 AM (select "I want to print" 11 sec in for... enough time to fade to black)show more

Looks like this was first noticed by the Japanese community and tested by @stella_ssa and @eshippoiya. More to come tomorrow, time for me to go to bed zzzz

Here's the thread of more details. There's more current information in here, so I suggest looking here if you want to know how to do it!

Wait, so everyone can rig the item printer with the exact same time frame seed?

People have already used my time to get the exact same balls!

Sorry but I won't use this because I love gambling

Gamefreak really said "fuck it, back to pokemon emerald rng"

My question is will you get this set of balls every time or will it vary? So for example, you got two sport balls. If you saved and reset the game and clock, would you get the same results again?

If you use the same time, you will get the same results.

You have made not-gambling so much better, thank you 🙏

When is the starting time to have a ball chance events, before setting this time like video?

Try 4/22/2024 1:27:09 (click at :07 seconds). Do 1 print job. Should give PP Max and Ball Bonus.
