CaptureSight VS swsh-overworld-rng-gui

Seeing that you have a modded switch I would like to direct your attention to CaptureSight https://github.com/zaksabeast/CaptureSight This is an overlay tool for CFW switches that will allow you to see your seeds and frame advances in real time.

There are tools for both CFW and CFWless users. The list is quite long but here are the main ones I can suggest you to use right now : For CFWless users, Project_Xs by Lincoln-LM is the way to go. The work on it has been huge, and allows you by different way (Keeping track of blinks manually or to use external tools like a phone to help you) to do many RNGs in BDSP. From eggs to Legendary, you can really enjoy some nice RNG experience there. It's still a WIP, so except more updates here too ! For CFW users, CaptureSight by Zaksabeast and PyNXReader by Lincoln-LM will allow you to get most RNG done. Don't forget that here too, many improvement will be excepted in the future weeks / months. A last note for emulator users, with Lua Script being out too : BDSP CheatEngine Lua by Real96, so every user can enjoy RNGing in some way !

I’d guess either mindless resets or by using a tool like this one to aim for an encounter window that will be shiny.

I would be using this ( im not sure what its called ) pretty sure its called Project_Xe or something on the lines of that, on an offical non cfw switch

Let's start with the most surprised discovery of the past months. Sword / Shield Overworld RNG. Pretty much, everything is done. We could still have to do little fix in the future, but the main part is done. CFW / CFWless is 100% supported. For the tools, i can only suggest you to check these 3 projects : SWSH Overworld RNG Gui done by LegoFigure11 for CFWless that will allow you to track your actual state. For CFW users, CaptureSight by Zaksabeast and PyNXReader by Lincoln-LM will give you all the tools necessary to RNG on these games.
