Quickest and Efficient way to encounter rares (Roam) cheats for Pokemon Platinum

Quickest and Efficient way to encounter rares (Roam)

There is a way to encounter those really annoying rare Pokemon that would run all around Sinnoh. That would be explained here. This also goes for Pokemon Diamond/Pearl

As you may know, when you fly or change areas, those roaming Pokemon will change places.

First off, make sure you have your poketch app on marking map. You should already see the little monster icon that looks like a sad monster (idk why).

Then, go to any town (Floarama town was easiest way for me) and get your running shoes on (I know you already have them... Expression). Leave the town any way (North, South, etc.) and come back into the town. The roaming Pokemon should have moved places. Keep leaving the town and coming back in. By leaving I mean when it says that your in a different place (Like Route 201). After going back and forth over and over again, the roaming Pokemon should get closer, once you two are both in the same map, Run into the grass and you should find the roaming pokemon. (Sometimes another Pokemon will pop up instead, BUT that roaming Pokemon will NOT change places).
