What's you're highest pokeradar chain?
 
Title says it all. What is your highest pokeradar chain? How many pokemon were shiny before the chain broke? Tell us your stories. (I have none yet xD)

Circuit November 15th, 2008 4:57 PM

4 Machamp. None shiny though. I am still basic and want to learn the technique.

Detox November 15th, 2008 4:59 PM

My highest chain was 34 floatzels. a dito broke the chain before any shiny ones showed up.

What's the technique? I really want to learn.

when you see a grass rustle, the one 4 spots away will ALWAYS be the pokemon before it. You must also always either defeat the pokemon, or capture it. NEVER run away from it. also, bring repels, beacuse using pokeradar doesn't mean wild pokemon won't come, and if they do, your chain will break

Carrier November 15th, 2008 8:31 PM

uhhh6677, that's not always true at all. You never have a 100% chance of running into the previous Pokémon. Maybe a 50% chance, or a 95% chance, or even a 97.5% chance, but never 100%. And with the "4 steps away" thing; it's a bit more complicated than that. I could go off and write up a crude guide for people, but other websites have that already (SPPf being one).

My highest chain is 56 Flaaffy.

Skaterzpenguin November 15th, 2008 8:36 PM

If I can remember correctly I think my highest chain was 31 porygon.

daydreambeliever November 16th, 2008 1:25 AM

Correct, this "4 steps away" or what I call the 4th ring method can be seen here. There are still some faulty patterns so it's not a 100% guarantee, but it helps.

My highest was 126 with Ponyta. I found 8 shinies, but I only caught 7. I accidentally fainted one..

.Ozymandias November 16th, 2008 12:05 PM

15 Staravia, while I was practising my chaining; before anyone asks, that record has stood for almost a month.... ><

Melodyfree November 16th, 2008 12:07 PM

...8 Ditto.
.__.
Epic fail.
I'm still trying to get the hang of it.

Archeopterix November 16th, 2008 6:51 PM

70 Pachirisu and I got 2 shiny. My most successful chain was 58 Tauros and I got 5 shiny.

EmpoleMew November 17th, 2008 4:40 PM

At first, it was 24 Roselia without repels, and before I even knew what chaining was, while trying to raise a certain Pokemon.

Once I found out how to chain, that 24 became 26. No shinies yet, still trying.

Ezzo! November 17th, 2008 6:30 PM

I chained until like 35?
Then my ds power died.
I was trying to chain for a shiny Nosepass on a swarming day. -_-'

Deoxys55 November 17th, 2008 6:38 PM

My highest is 48 Zangoose, I got 8 shinies out of it. The trick for me is to start reseting for shinies as soon as I get to 40. =P

imunster November 17th, 2008 7:04 PM

My highest was a 72 Voltorb, broken by a Floatzel

Blue Tomoshibi November 17th, 2008 7:11 PM

11...

Wasn't trying too hard...

I probably will now just because I'm bored! ^^

DonRoyale November 17th, 2008 7:11 PM

13 Doduo...
Or was it 16 Absol? I don't know, maybe it was 9.

For those new to Radar chains...
