Do you ever play Pokemon games in a foreign language?

[Petzbreeder]

I've played my games in French since I discovered the Masuda Method after Diamond and Pearl were released.

I saw a Youtube video once where someone said that playing an English Gen 6 cartridge in a foreign language doesn't work for the Masuda Method. I personally think that they are just really impatient. I've never been successful with breeding a shiny either, as I'm quite impatient myself. I only manage to breed about 30 eggs before I get bored lol.

I've been reading just now that setting the language in Gen 6 games actually does affect the Masuda Method. I'd like someone with more patience than me to try it.

The Gen 4 or Gen 5 games are guaranteed to work, because the cartridges are in one language only.

What is the best way for someone like me to do the Masuda Method when I have so little patience?

It will be very good for you to give me an answer about it.

Yes and no, I started playing the games in German, which was one of the languages most familiar to me. However nowadays I play the games in English, and I have to admit it feels a lot better to play in English
