Not true. It seems you can run around until a rustling bush appears without the DexNav. If you run into this patch REGARDLESS OF WHAT POKEMON APPEARS and faint what you encounter then your chain WILL CONTINUE. After that you can resume trying to search using the DexNav. This means that the only real way to break your chain is to ignore the rustling patches, leave the route, or fail to sneak up on the patch.
It's seriously hard to break a chain here in ORAS compared to when we used the PokeRadar in X/Y.
Thanks for the info!
It does seem hard to break a chain, but you have to do a lot of chains in order to find a shiny, so I guess it makes up for it.
I have edited this, and you have been credited.
