His website is http://www.geocities.com/meowth346/forever.htm and I found this information at http://pub2.ezboard.com/fpokeforgoldsilver.showMessage?topicID=1854.topic
I pretty much just took what he posted there and compiled it into a list that is more simplistic with some explanations. I repeat Meowth346 did the research, he is the genius, I just cleaned it up.
(Forgive all the above ramblings, but I am doing it so no one says OH you stole MEOWTHs WORK) [He is the genius who did all the work, not me...]
Now for my guide.... finally...
So, you want to understand Mystery Gift? Well, it appears to be work like this. Most
items that can be sent to your pack you can receive over and over again. I’m unsure if
multiple scope lens are possible, anyway... All of the following items are the most
common gifts you will receive when mystery gifting. Each time you mystery gift there is a 90.2% chance of getting one of the following items.
Berry
Przcureberry
Mint Berry
Ice Berry
Burnt Berry
Psncureberry
Guard Spec.
X Defense
X Attack
Bitter Berry
Dire Hit
X Special
X Accuracy
Eon Mail
Morph Mail
Music Mail
Clefairy Poster
Jigglypuff Poster
Super NES
Jigglypuff Doll
Staryu Doll
Poliwag Doll
Diglett Doll
Magikarp Doll
Oddish Doll
Gengar Doll
Shellder Doll
Grimer Doll
Voltorb Doll
Weedle Doll
Geodude Doll
Machop Doll
======================
Realize that when you receive a doll/decoration from a mystery gift, you will never get that doll again on the same catridge. In other words, one per customer. So, once you have received all the following gifts...
Clefairy Poster
Jigglypuff Poster
Super NES
Jigglypuff Doll
Staryu Doll
Poliwag Doll
Diglett Doll
Magikarp Doll
Oddish Doll
Gengar Doll
Shellder Doll
Grimer Doll
Voltorb Doll
Weedle Doll
Geodude Doll
Machop Doll
You will not be able to get them again and that only leaves the wussy items for the 90.2%. So that is why you get the following so many times when you mystery gift.
Berry
Przcureberry
Mint Berry
Ice Berry
Burnt Berry
Psncureberry
Guard Spec.
X Defense
X Attack
Bitter Berry
Dire Hit
X Special
X Accuracy
Eon Mail
Morph Mail
Music Mail
Once you have all the one per customer doll, poster, and game console decorations, each
time you mystery gift, there is a 90.2% chance that the item you get will come from the above list.
==========
So, why bother mystery gifting if all you’ll get is a lame Berry or X Special? Despire the horrible odds of almost always getting one of them, it is still possible to get better items, they are just very rare and may possibly never happen even if you mystery gift every day for a year.
=============
Each time you mystery gift you have a 7.9% chance of getting one of the following items. Realize that dolls, decorations, beds, gaming consoles, etc... can only be received once and if the game chooses to give you one of those you already have, it chooses an item for your pack from the same category.
Miracle Berry
Gold Berry
Revive
Great Ball
Super Repel
Max Repel
Elixer
Ether
Magna Plant
Tropic Plant
Pink Bed
Polkadot Bed
NES
Nintendo64
Bulbasaur Doll
Squirtle Doll
===========
Same story for the following, but only at a 1.5% chance...
Water Stone
Fire Stone
Leaf Stone
Thunderstone
Max Ether
Max Elixer
Max Revive
Scope Lens
Red Carpet
Blue Carpet
Yellow Carpet
Green Carpet
Jumbo Plant
Pikachu Poster
Virtual Boy
Big Onix
=================
Again, same story except only a 0.4% chance which is very pathetic.
HP Up
PP Up
Surf Pikachu Doll
Big Lapras
(so if you’re playing and a dude sends you a HP UP or a PP UP and you don’t have the
Surf Pikachu Doll and the Big Lapras... you just came VERY VERY close to getting one,
but didn’t.
=========
The following items can be obtained only by mystery gifting through Pokemon Stadium 2.
The exact odds of getting them is unknown, but at best they are 0.4%. But they could be
worse than that!
Pikachu Bed
Tentacool Doll
Unown Doll
If the game tries to give you one of these and you already have it, the game will give you a pack item, but which one(s) is unknown.
========

Also, that Japanese website fails to mention the Unown Doll. Apparently he doesn't have the resources that I have to work with.
But, I didn't steal it. Check out all informaiton before you accuse.
Again, if you want me to give some ROM locations, just say so. I suppose that I stole all of Carrie's teams from that site, too, after all I compiled those the exact same time that I did the Mystery Gift lists.

Thank you thank you thank you Meowth346.
I can contribute just a little--I'm almost certain you can get multiple Scope Lenses. I've gotten four...On the other hand, I have four carts...And I can't remember which carts got the Scope Lenses. But still, I'm almost positive you can get multiple Scope Lenses, just like any other items.

Maybe it doesn't do that for "all" items. Maybe it's just for the really good ones, like scope lens. But maybe you'll get berry after berry whether you have it in your pack or not. (just a theory)

Yessss...Actually on TPM (not that I'm making any comparison) they have more or less permanent threads where they repeatedly curse Carrie with the latest 12-year-old invectives--many of them take it very personally (but luckily, they haven't learmed the word "whore" yet, which is sad, considering how she repeatedly admits she likes to BEEP with people just to get gifts)...Anyway, she's there every night around 1 AM (when I get off work and do my MGs). Can you say...child prostitute?
Time to call the state or local agency in charge of child welfare...Put Carrie in a foster home already...

And mine just won't shut up about the damn tentacool doll. If i ever get one, i am gonna shove it down her throat and ask her "so is the rumor true? can u receive a tentacool doll down the throat?
On a more serious note. This may be a stupid question, but, if the person u r mystery gifting with has say a Surf Pika doll, does that affect ur odds of receiving it from them?
------------------
That said, I am very suspicious about the Stadium 2-only MGs. I still haven't read of anyone getting one. I have read one account of *Carrie* getting a Tentacruel that sounded reliable, but that's it.

Any Pokemon that you won from Round Two Stadium 1 will have attached "Gorgeous Box" that you can use to decorate your room with a Gold Trophy.
Maybe we should just all put the things we don't want in our packs, and then mystery gift with Prostitute Carrie. Who knows, maybe I'll get more Miracleberries instead of the 5 billion PRZcureberries...just something to think about =D

Both my Gold and Silver games have Surfing Pikachu dolls. HURRAY. I wish I could use my Charmander doll to light them on fire.
Why are Miracleberries as rare as Gold Berries, Revives and Ethers when I've gotten *SIX* Gold Berries and God knows how many Revives and Ethers from her?! *is angry*
...And am I the only one who thinks Carrie is a sweetie? Sure, she's a nazi with the gifts, but that isn't her fault...

This topic goes back to the top, since I did some research today which perhaps can help answer some of the questions here.
I stuffed my Pack full with all the 90% items, then all the 7,4% items that were left (and which I could stuff into my Pack, excluding Dolls and such). I then went to MG with Carrie.
If the things we have assumed here are correct, that you only recieve an item not in your pack, then I would recieve a rare doll, or an Eon Mail or Ether since I didn't have an Eon mail in my Pack.
Beep...
Carrie sent Dire Hit! WTF! I checked the list, and I had forgotten to add a Dire Hit in my Pack...
I'll Gift with her again tomorrow... If I recieve another Dire Hit then, we can be pretty sure that S2 first decides upon a category, then checks all the items in that category to see if they are in the pack, then chooses the one item currently not in pack.
I wonder, however, if my odds of getting a rare thing would increase if I stuff my pack with *all* the common items, then Gift with her... That would probably force S2 to choose items from a different category!
We may have something here!
Finally, a question to Meowth346, about the Unown doll. How rare is it? Is it a small doll, or a big one?

The Unown Doll is a regular sized doll that fits on the table in the middle of the room. Just like the Tentacool doll and Pikachu Bed, you can only get it by mystery gifting the stadium whore(tm). Anyway, the odds of getting it are very rare. I think that at the very best, it's like 1 in 255 shot. It could be worse than that...
To recapitulate, the exact odds of getting Unown Doll, Pikachu Bed, and Tentacool Doll is unknown, but at best they are 0.4% each time you mystery gift. But they could be
worse than that!
I crammed my pack full with alll the 90% items (this time I didn't forget Dire Hit), then changed the day using the time resetting password.
I then MG:ed with the Stadium Slut (as she appearantly is called on the Internet :P), and got... Dire Hit again! WTF!!!11!!1 I checked my Pack after I recieved the gift, and yes, I now had 2 Dire Hits instead of 1... I changed the day a few more times, and I always got items I already had (X Defend, Ice Berry, X Attack, then I got pissed and turned the N64 off ).
So I can now say (pretty sure) that for 90% common pack items, it doesn't matter if they're in your pack or not. I didn't get Eon Mail either, which was what I thought I was going to get...
So that's the bad news...
The good news, OTOH, is that Stadium doesn't "know" if you've changed your time or not. I changed from Friday to Saturday, then Sunday, then back to Friday, thinking "It'll not work now", but it did work! So a not-so-noble trainer can change the time settings as many times as he wish, to get 10's or 100's of gifts in a day (I think, I only tried this four times, plus the gift I took earlier, which makes five times total). At least you don't have to wait a whole day until you can MG again...
It's like Lark's, but a little more advanced. You only had 1 of Berry, PRZCureberry and the like in your pack, right?
But what if your pack was FULL of those? I mean, 99 Berries, 99 PRZCureberries and so forth?
It could work. I'll test it after I watch Pokémon, Tilt! and Digimon.
Which means about an hour.
But I think it doesn't matter, since the item is not sent to your pack directly, it's sent to the Lab, from where you go to pick it up. If your pack is full, then you simply can not choose to save the item there. But who knows, I've never tried it.
Let's say "this" is how Mystery Gifting works.
(beep)
Random Number is generated to see which class of items you receive (common/uncommon/rare/super rare)
Let's say you get Common. The Computer Scans your pack to see if there is an item from common YOU DONT already have. Like, if you always wanted Dire Hits, have all the common items EXCEPT Dire Hit. Then each time you get a common item from her, it will be dire hit. Of course, once you get the new dire hit you'll have to stick it in your PC and not your pak.
My other idea is that the having all the common items in your pak only works well if you dont have all the common dolls.
(beep)
Hmmm, has all common items, let's give common doll.
Common doll sent.
But, if you have ALL the common items in your pak and already have all the common dolls, my guess is that it just picks a common item anyway.

"H2O is hot water and CO2 is cold water"
I have suspected that too, since sometimes when my brother had played a lot and I had played nothing, he got berries and I got the good stuff
Yesterday I went to one of my basement-held unofficial tourneys and MG:d with a couple of kids.
I got Eon Mail, and Diglett Doll.
Wait a minute... No, this has nothing to do with playtime! When I MG:d, I had all the common items in my pack, except for Eon Mail (Which I receieved!), and I didn't have the Diglett Doll either.
So, maybe it works the oppposite way: The GB doesn't give you thing you have in your pack, but S2 does!
Or, maybe I was just lucky... But the fact that I got Berries from S2 that day (once at home, once at the tourney), then the two uncommon items I lacked when MG:ing with trainers makes this a little more interesting.
So, I'm ready for the tests. Currently I have in my bag in Silver:
99 Berries
99 PRZCureberries
99 Mint berries
99 Ice berries
99 Burnt berries
99 PSNCureberries
99 Bitter berries
99 X Defenses
99 X Attacks
99 X Speeds (Meowth346 didn't have these listed as common items, but I included them still)
99 X Specials
99 X Accuracies
99 Dire Hits
99 Guard Spec.s
99 Eon mails
99 Morph mails
99 Music mails
All the common items + X Speeds.
/me switches both GameBoy Colors on
/me chooses Mystery Gift
Oh, by the way, my Silver character is called NIIDLE and Gold character is called NOODLE.
*GIFT*
And...
NOODLE sent X Defend.
NIIDLE sent X Accuracy.
Bah, now I understand. It goes to the policeman in the Pokémon Center, NOT straight to your inventory >
Well... we still have the ability to change the time and MG with the Stadium Slut as many times as we want...
At least it's something.
