Wailord Respawn RNG (CFW)

A small guide for respawning the Isle of Armor Wailord.

The Isle of Armor Wailord is visible in the sea upon entering the Isle of Armor for the first time and will remain present until defeated or captured. Using RNG manipulation it is possible to respawn this Wailord if you have accidentally despawned it, or wish to bring it back for any reason.

Important - From here, we assume that you are familiar with key concepts described on the main page. If you are unsure about seed monitoring, advancement methods, or NPC calibration, please review the relevant sections before continuing.

Getting Started (Game Setup)
  1. Head to the Isle of Armor and enter the train station.

  2. Perform a date advance while standing in the train station.

  3. Calibrate your NPC count, a common NPC value for the train station is 6.

  4. Save the game.

Wailord has one chance to spawn per day upon entering the Isle of Armor overworld for the first time. For this reason we are required to perform a date advance while standing inside the train station if we have entered the Isle of Armor overworld. After performing a date advance we can then save in this state as the game will consider this a new day.

Getting Started (Tool Setup)
  1. Enter the IP address of your console in the main window and click Connect. This will automatically read your current seed and save file details.

  2. At the top of the main owoow window, select Wailord Respawn to open the Wailord Respawn generator in a sub-window.

  3. Enter the amount of advances you are willing to search through into the + field, usually you will find any desired result in less than 5,000 advances.

  4. Activate the Consider Menu Close? checkbox, then enter the NPC count that was calibrated earlier (mostly likely 6). You can now begin searching for targets.

If you do not find a desirable result you will need to increase your search range, reset the game and follow the above steps again, or apply less strict search filters.

Advancing to the Target

In this example, a frame that will respawn wailord can be seen in a cluster between advances x-y, these advances are highlighted yellow, which means that Wailord will respawn if we enter the Isle of Armor loading zone on any of them.

Step-by-Step
  1. Advance toward your target using NPC activation or animations.

  2. Once you are 100-200 advances before your target, stand next to the train station exit as such that holding down on your control stick will trigger the loading zone.

  3. Ensure that the Consider Menu Close? checkbox is checked in the Wailord Respawn sub-window, and confirm that your NPC count is calibrated correctly.

  4. Click Update Seeds on the main window of owoow, then re-open the Wailord Respawn sub-window and search for your target again.

  5. From this point, use animations to reach the exact target frame, then return to the main pause menu.

  6. Unpause the game. If Holding Direction? is checked, hold down on the control stick when unpausing; otherwise, let the game unpause without holding a direction, then hold down on the control stick after 1 second.

  7. If everything was done correctly you should have entered the Isle of Armor overworld and see that Wailord has been properly respawned.

In Figure 4 we closed the pause menu on the desired target frame and quickly entered the Isle of Armor to see that Wailord has been respawned.

That's all there is to respawning Wailord using RNG manipulation (CFW)!
