So, is there any way to RNG legendaries without an emu/rom in HG/SS? Or is it still... 'being figured out' or something? I haven't RNGed before, but I want to do it in my SS version w/ Mewtwo and Ho-Oh.

I don't like the new game corner in HGSS. I like the old game corner better.
You're not the only one.
I'm alright with Voltorb Flip now, and it would have made a magnificent addition... but it doesn't hold a candle to slots fun-wise, IMO.
At least you don't have to bet, on the bright side. x3

I got not one, but TWO Flying Pikachus!
One is mild and has 31 Spe IVs and the other is Lax and has terrible IVs in just about everything in which I will use for trade fodder to get something cool.

Party is Mizu (Croconaw, Level 18), Falco (Pidgeotto, Level 18), PIKACHU (Which is a Level 18 Flaaffy, mindgames, son.), and the Togepi from the egg at the beginning, level 6.

That's pretty awesome dude. How long did it take you?
Edit: That sounded like I was mocking you, which I wasn't. I was genuinely interested in how long it took you since I may try for one.

I'm not capable of walking 7k steps in a day (I say 7k because I think that would be 75% out of 10k right?). I always get to 6.5k

College = walking around a lot = lots of steps = lots of watts = more special Pikachus!

I'm at 61 hours and haven't even gotten to the E4 yet. So if you're slow, then I'm Slakoth's ******** and crippled 4 month old cousin.Sooo I just beat the E4 and I already have 33 hours logged into the game.

But I already know that I'm taking my sweet *** molasses time to get through this game, so I can't honestly answer whether or not you're slow. I just know I'm really slow.

Lol okay this makes me feel a lot better.
What are you taking your time with? Trying to capture as many Pokes as you can before E4? Breeding for perfect Pokemon? Soft resetting for a shiny Ho-Oh/Lugia? Combination of all of these? lol

then i must have had a lot of time in mah hands, cuz i started on March 20th and beat Red on da 24th
This. Also, soft-resetting wouldn't make a difference.
Hmm? Can you explain this please? I have seen people mention RNG'ing but they never explained the process.

You can't reliably send the frame forward in HGSS, so you have to get your ID and Secret ID then use the time finder to get at what time do EV spreads/Shinyness appear, and set your clock accordingly.

If you walk a full hour a day where you're walking at about two paces a second you'd end up with at least 7000 paces, and that's for walking an hour for the ENTIRE day, not in one sitting.I'm not capable of walking 7k steps in a day (I say 7k because I think that would be 75% out of 10k right?).

Wtf? Then my pokewalker is busted because in PE I walk like hell. I should have around 10k because of that, but oh no, it won't record steps so well.
I'm also happy, I've clocked 154 hours and 54 minutes on this thing <3

I'm not even entirely sure. I do have an obtained Pokemon number of 88, but that doesn't really take long to get and I honestly just did it along the way. I remember spending a lot of time to train and spent a lot of time playing Voltorb Flip, but I don't think I spent THAT much time doing either. And I haven't done any breeding at all.
I SR'd for a shiny/'perfect' Ho-Oh for a while, but got bored and just decided to catch it with a Pokeball. The Ho-Oh still ended up being decent, so I was happy enough.
But for the record, SR'ing doesn't increase in-game time played. I'm assuming you knew that but listed what you stated anyway, but just in case I thought I'd say it.
EDIT: Also for the record, I could give a **** less about RNG.

How many paces in a day does it register? BTW, you have to place it around the belt, if it's on a bag it won't clock properly.
And I'm still not at Azalea Town yet. lol If that ain't slow I don't know what is.

Here, I'll beat that. I know you haven't deleted your file yet, but still. I feel like talking.
My Diamond had almost 700 hours before I restarted it here about a year ago. That probably doesn't sound like much at all, but the fact that I acquired about 500 of those hours with a DS that only had a single operating screen, as well as the fact that I only owned the game for about 6 months before not having a workable DS at all and didn't get another DS until about a month or two before I deleted the file, I'd say it's quite impressive.

My Diamond would have actually had a lot more hours on it if my DS hadn't completely broke. After all that playtime with only the top screen I had basically become a master at navigating the bottom screen blind. The long period of time where I had no DS, however, had made me lose the spark I originally had for playing the game. Platinum also ruined that spark. Not because I loved playing Platinum so much, but because I dreaded playing Platinum to the point where I didn't even want to freaking hear the word Pokemon being said to me.
Although ironically enough, the DS broke because I tried fixing it. I was going to attempt to take my friend's bottom portion and attach my top portion to it. The attempt was a complete failure though, and the DS was (more than) a little too ****ed up to play afterward.
Part of me actually thinks the reason why I played the game so much when I did was because of the lack of a bottom screen. I'm horribly attracted to damaged things of any kind, and this was a damaged thing that had essentially become a part of me. I shouldn't have tried to fix it.
Fixing something only worsens the problem in my case. Always.

That's beyond impressive. You're able to get over 500 hours of entertainment out of a single game. To put it in perspective, a lot of console games only last around 10-20 hours.My Diamond had almost 700 hours before I restarted it here about a year ago. That probably doesn't sound like much at all, but the fact that I acquired about 500 of those hours with a DS that only had a single operating screen, as well as the fact that I only owned the game for about 6 months before not having a workable DS at all and didn't get another DS until about a month or two before I deleted the file, I'd say it's quite impressive.
Lets exaggerate and pretend that you average about 20 hours of play time on every console game you play, and every game you buy averages around $40.
-500 hours/20 hours= 25 games
-25 games x $40= $1,000
I THINK Diamond was $35 at release? So you've pretty much saved over $1,000 in this scenario. That's incredible.
The re-playability value of the Pokemon hand held games is definitely the shining point of the series in my eyes.

I beat FireRed in under 12 hours.
I defeated the Elite Four in Diamond after 20 hours, while I played a total of like 333+ hours trying to fill my PokeDex. This will probably repeat over into HeartGold.
I've spent 40 hours on it already.

Yes it was, the only difference between it and Sapphire (Witch took 61 hours due to training) is team magma's base really, and when you have a lv 65 Swampert with 5 sacrificial Pokemon and more revives/max potions you can shake a Farfetch'd stick at, it becomes possible.
