Got a Furfrou after 182 Eggs in 4 days

Thinking of doing some shiny hunts in Emerald, but I heard that save data is more likely to be deleted from soft resetting because of the finicky RNG that Emerald has. It's been years ago since I heard of that though. Is it safe to soft reset Emerald for long amounts of time?

I've never heard of the save data being deleted due to SRing in emerald, so you should be good.

No, i use those. As well as destiny knots and everstones. However the pokmeon was generated is how the pokemon is. Using an item to change its genetics makes no sense.

Ivs, nature and abilities should not be changeable. Next gen they'll introduce an item to change gender?

Currently trying to Dexnav hunt in ORAS and I'm getting pissed because half of the people I look at online say it's a chainable method, and the other half say it isn't and that's just a waste of time resources. Any one here who can clear up what I gotta do so I don't waste 90 Max repels on a non-existent chain?

You get some bonus rolls at chain 50 and 100, then it resets, the higher your search level the better the standard odds, try getting to a chain of 100 then you are free to fail it, the improved odds from your search level will remain

phasing is pretty much how many times it takes you to get what you want.
for example, if you're going for a rattata in FRLG and you get a pidgey, that would be phase 1. then you get the rattata on phase 2.
