Use this if you do not have a switch with custom firmware
Tools
Method 1: Have a friend use CaptureSight
Use this method if you have Nintendo online or know someone with custom firmware
Method 1.a: Host the raid
- Save the CFWless switch in front of the den and host the raid
- Have the CFW switch join the raid
- On the CFW switch, press the Home button and load CaptureSight
- View the raid Pokemon in the "Wild Pokemon" menu and click the "Find Seed" button of the raid Pokemon
- Have the CFWless switch restart the game without saving
- If a good RNG isn't found, beat the raid or use a wishing piece, then start again.
Method 1.b: Start a trade
- Have the CFWless switch catch a raid Pokemon
- Have the CFWless switch join a trade with the CFW switch
- On the CFW switch, press the Home button and load CaptureSight
- View the raid Pokemon in the "Wild Pokemon" menu and click the "Find Seed" button of the trade Pokemon
- Do not trade the Pokemon and exit the trade so the CFWless switch doesn't save
- Restart the game on the CFWless switch so the den's seed is reset and can be RNG'd
Method 2: Use RaidFinder
Use this method if you must get the seed yourself
