Thanks

Thanks to Everstone bringing the non-randomness in breeding to everyones attention. Thanks to X-Act for laying out the RNG algorithm in english so that I could re-implement and also for providing the PID/IV generation information. Thanks to Wild Eep and ToastPlusOne for ID\SID searcher Pandora's Box. Thanks to Wichu for a much simpler shiny test than the ball of shit I had come up with.
