Going to leave my comment in the "spoiler option"



So basically all I have to do is keep the battle going until "said" shiny mon or the OG mon I'd battle leaves (which few want the later to happen). At least players don't have to go out encountering the same Pokemon again out in the wild, though hopefully people don't complain that shiny hunting is being made easier. This is a definite welcome change on my books, heck might even try this.

Also if what they said about potentially finding 4 IV+ Pokemon, then it will be a godsend for many breeders.

Question I have about it:



I looked on the thread and some of the commenters weren't sure about it, so does anyone here know that if you KO the shiny or catch it, if you can continue the chain? Or does the shiny value/IVs reset?

It doesn't look like we have to wait to post game either to start.

Getting a 100 chain this way is probably easier than getting a 40 chain with DexNav in OR/AS, i think i m gonna give the system a few shots.

Well i got 550+ search level on Skarmory and did never find a shiny skarmory so i guess chaining did matter indeed, otherwise i d have gotten at least three shiny skarmory's already...... :s
