Advancing to Target Nature – Ensures correct nature using Initial Seed.
The C-Gear Seed is set upon entering Entralink, independent of the Initial Seed. It depends on:
Exact Date & Time (down to the second).
Delay (time elapsed in visual frames since game load; 30fps).
Preparation
Have a Pokémon in your Entree Forest to RNG. Ideally, only one in the first Center Area to avoid unnecessary frame advancements.
(Optional) Use Entralinked as a Game Sync emulator for Pokémon Black & White.
(Optional but recommended) Gather 20-30 Rare Candies. Most Entralink Pokémon are level 10, so these will help determine exact IVs. If low on Rare Candies, RNG manipulate Pickup in Gen 5 to farm them efficiently.
Be in a location without moving NPCs. Marvelous Bridge is recommended as it has no NPCs and low background noise, making Chatot verification easier.
Have at least one Chatot to verify RNG advances, as required for Gen 5 RNG.
Step 1: Finding Your Target Seeds
Finding the C-Gear Seed (Pokefinder C-Gear)

IV Filters: Set target IVs.
Date Range: Any year (20xx-01-01 to 20xx-12-31).
Press Search.
If no results, increase Max Delay or broaden IV ranges.
Finding the Initial Seed (Entralink Seed Search)
Open RNG Reporter.
Copy your BW1 profile data.
Go to 5th Gen Tools > Entralink Seed Search.
Paste your C-Gear Seed.
Set parameters:
Year: Match the C-Gear Seed's year.
Max Advances: 60.
Target Nature: Select desired nature.
Press Search.
If "invalid seed" error appears, try a different one from Pokefinder.
Ignore IVs showing as 0 (a display bug).
Pick a target Initial Seed:
On DS/Lite/i: Select one with 20-30 seconds.
On 3DS/2DS: Select one with 40-50 seconds.

Paste C-Gear Seed into the Seed field.
Select BW (C-Gear Seed) option.
Set parameters:
Year: Match Initial Seed’s year.
Seconds checkbox: Unchecked.
BW1 profile selected.
Press Generate (top-right).
Scroll to your C-Gear Seed’s target Date/Time from Entralink Seed Search.
Adjust parameters:
