Yes, changing species works. I've managed a series 1 pokemon RN and a pretty good but rare RN. Looks like setting species to kacheek won't work
Thanks for the programme and help

Can anyone confirm this, because I'd really like to create Kacheeks

These are an example of the sorts of buy times I get at night time. Our Wifi can be slower at night because that's the peak traffic time in our household. A good way to offset this is by picking shops that don't have many visiters. If I AB during the middle of the day/afternoon, my times are a lot better and can sometimes get down to 2100 on average (which you should be able to get some good stuff with that. This was over a period of about 30 minutes (it's not always this great, sometimes I might only get 1 or 2 things in an hour... just luck I guess ).

Hope this helps

Today is probably just extra competitive, I wouldn't worry about it too much . I find it easier to restock after 7pm, buy times are often very irrelevant then (I've gotten 90k profits with 3000-3500ms buy times ).

I think your results are pretty standard. I live pretty far away from TNT servers so my buy times are quite slow, and I stay out of any "high risk" shops. I can make anywhere from 200-400k a day on average from 1-3 hours of ABing. This is what I've observed over the past 2 weeks (not accounting for the occasional UB I get, which would make that average a bit higher).

If Scot ran his test again, I'd assume a decrease in profits largely because there are so many shops that are now full of 24 junk items, which leads to more competition in the faster/better shops.

Thanks for the advice guys!

I have been getting some good stuff with those buy times, but I generally miss all the big ones.

For timing myself manually, is it from first clicking on the item to getting to the bought screen that Abrosia records? I might try that later.
