Just thought you all would be interested that Joe updated Serebii with some findings on the DexNav and chaining.
"A lesser known feature of the DexNav is the ability to chain. When you get a hit and encounter a Pokémon, if you capture or defeat it, then immediately afterwards you will be able to search for it again and you are almost guaranteed to find one. If you do this repeatedly, then the chances of getting hold items, hidden abilities, egg moves and higher IVs is increased. The specifics on how much these are increased by is being calculated.
After you have encountered it 5 times, then the base level increases by 1 so Pokémon that would appear at Level 35 now appear at Level 36. This happens every 5 Pokémon in your chain. As your chain increases, the Pokémon will disappear quicker, or in the case of caves and in water, they will move spot very quickly causing you to have to sneak up on them faster and thus increasing the chance of your chain breaking. If you have a different wild encounter during the chain, then it will break. If you run from the Pokémon, then the chain will break."
