    Hello, I'd like to show off a few things I've figured out how to do because of my Sapphire cart's Dry Battery!

    First, I'd like to show that RNGing for a shiny egg is possible just like how it is in Emerald → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPRnXS_4k54
    That's not a how-to, it's just a demonstration to show that it works. But the video (that helped me) I put in its description can be used as a how-to of sorts (since that's pretty much how I used it. lol).

    Second, I'd like to show how you can find which tiles Feebas will be in on your Dry Battery game → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ijep8XX7H8
    I've never seen anyone mention this before so I think this is a really important find (since it's definitely waaay better than searching each 400+ tiles yourself). It is important that you know when you started your game (I specifically timed mine to get certain RNG shinies. lol) and also haven't changed the trendy phrase since that apparently changes Feebas tiles (I never did that in my game).

    If anyone has any questions I'll answer them. Thanks to Smogon for documenting the RNG stuff or I would have never found this out. :)
     
    I think sometimes the Trendy Phrase changes on its own if you choose not to change it yourself. But I'd love to get myself a Feebas/Milotic in my old emerald game. Does the feebas glitch work on emerald? I don't know where my copy of Sapphire is.

    It's not so much as a glitch, it's how it works... Now that I think of it I think it might work on Emerald too (I don't have Emerald so I can't try myself)? I know the RNG seed is the same but I don't know if the time is stuck like on a dry battery Ruby or Sapphire.

    Edit: Time is important because where Feebas will be in your game changes based on when you generate your trainer ID.
