I just want to say that you said all of this very clearly and organized. You gave a great, informational guide while still feeling genuine. I find it very sad that many new youtubers don't act like themselves to try and get subscribers. This guide was very helpful, and wasn't one that just bored and confused. Great job!
Thank you =) I Feel you on People not being themselves but it is what it is. I enjoy doing my Best job to entertain but also stay true to who I am as a Person. Making Videos is One of the Best Ways I can Shine and be the real me. I want my Viewers to know who I am and Do my Best to entertain.
Dexnav and mega evolution are the best features introduced to any Pokemon game. And the fact that both were released for ORAS just makes the game one of the all time best ever imo. Such a beautiful game! Have played it so many times and can still never get tired of it, even 6 years later
If you Guys Can't Find the Pokemon as in the Search fails just walk around to another patch of grass and research and go for the Pokemon once it pops up again. If somethings random pops up go for that pokemon even though it's not the pokemon your hunting for it will keep your chain alive!
SmkGaming05 Btw I know if you startle the pokemon the chain resets but sometimes i get it say "The pokemon ran away" without me startling it does that reset the chain?
OMG I JUST FOUND MY FIRST SHINY USING THIS METHOD! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HELP!! I CAUGHT A GOREGEOUS SHINY FEMALE POOCHEYNA, I NAMED HER HERA!! Sorry, I'm so freaking excited!!! Thank you so much!
Dude, thanks so much for taking the time to make this video, clearing up how to best use this new feature. This will certainly make it a little easier to catch and eventually breed a potential competitive Pokemon! :-)
I have never watched any of you're videos, i just needed help to get eevee, and wondering what else the dex nav was for. so thank you and i will watch and learn from you. i humble myself. Thank you.
Really good thanks man you deserve way more sub's. And I love how your not one of those youtubers who is always begging for likes and subs. Keep up the great work
I only ask for likes when it's something new and want to get solid feedback on new projects to see how many people really enjoy the new content. Not every sub will like every video I make so getting feedback is what I enjoy. Getting a shit ton of likes doesn't really do much. If people like my videos great, if not I got work to do to make any video better
I was having doubts about whether I was doing it correctly but thanks to you I stayed confident and found then caught a glorious shiny Poochyena! :D Zorua will be my next victim :3
I cannot believe this actually worked. After watching your shiny Eevee video where you said dexnav shiny hunting I went to the description and after a few encounters. BAM!! Shiny Eevee pops up. Thanks for this method.
The chaining on DexNav doesn't change anything on Shiny encounter rate, it's not like the PokéRadar, however, chaining while searching for the shiny will make the shiny come with better abilitys, IVs, etc.
I have had this game for a few years, and just ignored it after getting my 2nd Gym Badge and forgetting where to go when I picked it back up 2 years later and again last week. Starting Pokemon Go last month sparked a new interest (and warm love) into ORAS. I played several of the Gameboy versions and they all have a certain kind of charm. I wiped my save and restarted with Mudkip instaed of Torchic. He's just as adorable lol. This game is really growing on me fast, and I only just got to Petalburg and got dissed by a certain relative...lol. Any advice for what I am starting to believe is one of the BEST Pokemon games ever made would be greatly appreciated. Any Digimon: Cyber Sleuth 1 or 2 PS Vita fans? That's something EVERY POKEMON LOVER should try out. Much love to you. 🤘🖤
Oh my gosh! 6 + years I've been playing Pokemon games..........I finally caught my first shiny ever! 😇 took me 3 days of trying to chain and using the dexnav. And it was a shiny female feebas. I'm so freaking happy right night! 😍☺️
So I was gonna try chain fishing and I had this video as background noise and then I tried dex Nav twice in the water by the battle resort and the second time I got a shiny magikarp. This just happened holy shit.
wow this really works! so im about 10 minutes into the video and i too start chaining for a shiny poochyena. Literally on my second poochyena encounter i find a shiny! i wasnt even paying attention, just following the steps. the best part is the search level was only 19. Thanks for the awesome tips in this video!
Hey SmkGaming! I doubt you will remember me and hopefully you will read this comment but a couple of weeks ago I met you in a random Wonder Trade and I was seriously surprised to see that you traded a Shiny Ninetails! I just wanted to say thank you soooo much for her and the amazing opportunity to have such a grey beauty! Again thank you so much and keep up the great work! :)
+Connorplier Cagle I've made an updated video about dexnav. Chains do not matter when finding shiny pokemon from dex nav. The odds are like friend safari from pokemon x and y 1/512
SMKGaming05 I was watching this video, and while doing it (after 4 days) I found a Shiny Giratina after 1057 soft resets in AlphaSapphire. Thank you so much man!
UGH buddy forgot to mention not to multitask eating a slice of pizza with one hand, or else the bushy pokemon will sense disrupted focus and flee right away!
Correct! Think of the Chain as a DexNav Only Pokemon Chain, not a Single Pokemon Chain. The Chain will Always Continue to grow if you encounter anything that pops up on the DexNav Only =)
+pebkie chain or no Chain. You will find a shiny pokemon at some point because of using the dexnav. So yes you can run away. It does not ruin your odds of a shiny pokemon.
Ok for the nav if you look in your bag like new repel does it break it and or switch pokemon? Along does it break if f you move to slowly/ react slow.. And.. If it can't find it.. If this makes sence to you...
it's an awesome Shiny! Don't Worry about Breaking a Chain. Dexnav is a fixed rate. just do as many encounters as you can for joltik when you got the time to shiny hunt.
So does it matter if I'm shiny hunting for a specific Pokemon got a good chain going and a different one appears do I have to focus on that pokemon or can I go back to other one I was doing?
Azucena Mcarther You don't Need to Chain anymore. Dexnav has a Fixed Shiny Rate. Very Similar to Friend Safaris. I talk about it in my Update Dexnav Video.
I never heard of this until today. While watching your video I started doing this on Route 113 just to see what would happen. After 3 DexNav finds I came across a level 28 Skarmory with a special move (can't remember it now). So many thanks!
I use search level as a kinda "You found 167 of this pokemon" It really helps to keep count of how many of this one pokemon i found, and to know how long i took to get a shiny, and DexNav shiny odds are around 1/350
Ok. I'm glad you are really helpful. The reason why I want to find a shiny Zorua is because I encountered a shiny Riolu in Y, so I thought another bipedal Pokemon would be nice. Obviously, it's hard to encounter shiny mewtwo. So thanks again a whole bunch!
I want to do the height comparison feature on the pokedex but with all shinies. So I wanted to know if the size chart you can pick the shiny form, or does it show the first registered form?
So... your chaining right and keep on encountering the same pokemon. What happens when that pokemon your chaining suddenly you can no longer search for with the Dexnav? Does that mean your chain has broken?
The Chain is never About the Same Pokemon. The Dexnav Chain is All About Continuing to Encounter Pokemon ONLY with the DexNav. So if you can't Find a Ralts and you are Walking around and around and then a Surskit Pops Up Encountering that Surskit will Continue your Chain. After you Kill or Catch Surskit then try researching for Ralts again.
SmkGaming05 Ahh I gotcha thanks for the reply as well! I was chaining vulpix and suddenly the search function stopped working so I immediately thought that meant my chain broke. But that info you just said is very helpful :3. Nice video as well.
Wow this is seriously the best video, you're so clear with your words and you explain everything so nicely. This helped me out a lot, thank you so much c:
Was watching this since I never tried shiny hunting dexnav style. Afterwards I watched your Dexnav shiny Ralts reaction. At that video i caught my 1st shiny dexnav. A raticate. I named it after you 😁
Hey SMK or anyone else I actually have a question. I maybe wrong about this but is it true that having synchronize as an ability in your party (ex. Gardivour) gives wild pokemon a better chance of having that same nature as that Gardivour? I am curious because I wanted to start shiny hunting eevee. I maybe wrong about this but I can't remember where I heard this from
Yes having a Pokemon with the Ability of "Synchronize" will have a 50% chance of passing nature that to the wild pokemon you encounter. you don't have to do it but's an option.
how about resetting your dexnav when the pokemon u dont want comes up? by that i mean will running into a diiferent patch of grass to reset the dexnav break your chain?
Thanks for the video ! It may help me a lot ! I bought the game a week ago, but I'm still trying to get my shiny Treecko.. I guess I'm not a lucky person.. You speak really clearly btw ! It seems really simple when I hear you speak about it ! Thanks again ;)
Nabeel AlMulla It will break a chain say if a pokemon has popped up in the grass and you are walking towards it and you get a random encounter before you got the dexnav encounter.
Yes Random Encounters Do Break Chains that's why you use repels in the First Place. They can Fail but I Rarely had Repels Fail when I used to Chain with the dexnav.
As I watched this video, I happened across an Absol holding a Life Orb. Apparently, those can only be found via the DexNav. It will definitely save me a lot of BP!
I'm still a little confused.If I'm chaining for a pokemon,and a different pokemon appears on the the dexnav and I go to it it and knock it it out,do I have to go 4 that pokemon to keep the chain alive?and when I knock out the pokemon that popped up it takes me to the screen with all the pokemon icons.can I select the pokemon I was chaining and continue,or is my chain broken?
once you kill/catch a random Pokemon that may appear on the dexnav just go back into searching for the pokemon you want. Remember the Chain itself is a Chain for DexNav Sneaks not for the pokemon you really want to be shiny.
Great video I actually got a random shiny zigzagon by simply just walking through the grass during the early stages of pokemon Alpha sapphire after the forest
AotGamingCrew you can scare them away if you don't want it yes. You don't have to Chain to Find Shiny Pokemon. Just get as Many Dexnav Encounters and you will Find a Shiny!
I found out that even if a pokemon has 3 stars for potential it could actually have more maximum IVs. i chained for zorua after i saw your video and got one with 4 max IVs :D
All these people getting shinies at chains of 40-50, and I'm still here at a 300+ chain...
Trust me you will get one! Keep Going =)
How I feel when I do the horde method
Jovial Skunk been searching for shiny swablu. Already have over 999 search lvl hehexd
I'm trying to get a shiny vulpix and i had a chain of 533 and never got my shiny
So maybe I'm stupid but has there been any confirmation on shiny chaining on dex nav yet?
Shiny hunt starts at 11:30
Thanks
12:54
Thanks
Thanks mate
Tommynski thank you!
I just want to say that you said all of this very clearly and organized. You gave a great, informational guide while still feeling genuine.

Matteo Pagano Agree with u dude
Dexnav and mega evolution are the best features introduced to any Pokemon game. And the fact that both were released for ORAS just makes the game one of the all time best ever imo. Such a beautiful game! Have played it so many times and can still never get tired of it, even 6 years later
Wasn't it introduced in xy
If you Guys Can't Find the Pokemon as in the Search fails just walk around to another patch of grass and research and go for the Pokemon once it pops up again. If somethings random pops up go for that pokemon even though it's not the pokemon your hunting for it will keep your chain alive!
I sub
You may want to check out Verlisify's video on dexnav chaining to clear up the whole thing with search levels.
Quinn Fornal I Mention in my Video how a Better Search lvl can bring you better egg moves, HA, and or Good IVS
Yes but it only matters in terms of a streak
Hi Steven, my FC ia: 2423-3334-7184
5 years later and I’m finally ready to dexnaving😂😂
Hordes, sos, masuda n friend safari are all done
On route 120 U can farm life orbs from absol ;)
Good to know! Thank you fellow being!
Do your best not to search where npc's are walking in the grass, the npc's will cause the pokemon to run if they walk over them
Yeah I Learned that the Hard Way XD
I learned that while hunting for a shiny zorua-
Thanks for this awesome guide. Watching this makes me feel like I'm in a pokemon school or something XD
Glad to help =)
SmkGaming05 Btw I know if you startle the pokemon the chain resets but sometimes i get it say "The pokemon ran away" without me startling it does that reset the chain?
Yes if you take to long then the pokemon will run away and break your chain.
OMG I JUST FOUND MY FIRST SHINY USING THIS METHOD! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HELP!! I CAUGHT A GOREGEOUS SHINY FEMALE POOCHEYNA, I NAMED HER HERA!!
Sorry, I'm so freaking excited!!! Thank you so much!
Dude, thanks so much for taking the time to make this video, clearing up how to best use this new feature. This will certainly make it a little easier to catch and eventually breed a potential competitive Pokemon! :-)
Not a Problem! I Enjoy Making Videos like this! I Love Using the DexNav ^_^
I’ve been playing this game for years and never realized you can do horde encounters... thank you!
I had a chain of 38 and the ralts just ran away. Idk if that broke the chain but I got mad lmao and turned of my 3ds
If The Pokemon Runs Away it Breaks the Chain.
Fwmelias326 lol
I've recently gone back to ORAS and I forgot how to use this thing, thank God your video is still up 😂🤙🏻
Scaring the pokemon doesnt break the chain
I have never watched any of you're videos, i just needed help to get eevee, and wondering what else the dex nav was for. so thank you and i will watch and learn from you. i humble myself. Thank you.
I found a shiny wurmple Dexnaving
Without any repels.
The funny thing is im serious.
Shiny Luis you don't need repels it just helps prevent any Random Encounters that are not Dexnav Encounters, but Great Job!
Really good thanks man you deserve way more sub's. And I love how your not one of those youtubers who is always begging for likes and subs. Keep up the great work
I only ask for likes when it's something new and want to get solid feedback on new projects to see how many people really enjoy the new content. Not every sub will like every video I make so getting feedback is what I enjoy. Getting a shit ton of likes doesn't really do much. If people like my videos great, if not I got work to do to make any video better
I was having doubts about whether I was doing it correctly but thanks to you I stayed confident and found then caught a glorious shiny Poochyena! :D Zorua will be my next victim :3
I cannot believe this actually worked. After watching your shiny Eevee video where you said dexnav shiny hunting I went to the description and after a few encounters. BAM!! Shiny Eevee pops up. Thanks for this method.
It Does Work! I've Done it many times now =)
By the way I liked and subscribed =)
Thank you So Much =)
This video was amazing my friend! Thank you from a 40 year old gamer with a new passion for Pokemon Omega Ruby Red!🤘🖤
Enjoy it! It’s an amazing game :)
Man smk I haven't seen you in a long time. Your stream has been so popular since first time I watched you! Good luck in the future
Thanks Empo1eon It has Grown a lot this Year to the point of it becoming my Full time Job! Love what I do and can't wait to do more ^_^
Thank you so much! I just caught my first shiny ever using your advice. You're the best!
That's awesome! Glad I could help =)
The chaining on DexNav doesn't change anything on Shiny encounter rate, it's not like the PokéRadar, however, chaining while searching for the shiny will make the shiny come with better abilitys, IVs, etc.
I just got alpha sapphire in 2019 and my 2ds broke after I caught a regular ralts, the touch screen and buttons don't work anymore.
F
After 6 years I finally got my shiny charm legit so I need this video now
I wasn't paying attention to the dex nav when i found me a shiny Seedot :P
I have had this game for a few years, and just ignored it after getting my 2nd Gym Badge and forgetting where to go when I picked it back up 2 years later and again last week.

Oh my gosh! 6 + years I've been playing Pokemon games..........I finally caught my first shiny ever! 😇 took me 3 days of trying to chain and using the dexnav. And it was a shiny female feebas. I'm so freaking happy right night! 😍☺️
It's been six years now r u still pokefan?
6 years later but chain fishing feebas is way faster than dexnaving
I hoped there was a way to do Shiny Hunting with the DexNav! Thank you for uploading this video and explaining it in full. :)
+Jane Wolfberg glad to help!
So I was gonna try chain fishing and I had this video as background noise and then I tried dex Nav twice in the water by the battle resort and the second time I got a shiny magikarp. This just happened holy shit.
wow this really works! so im about 10 minutes into the video and i too start chaining for a shiny poochyena. Literally on my second poochyena encounter i find a shiny! i wasnt even paying attention, just following the steps. the best part is the search level was only 19. Thanks for the awesome tips in this video!
Got a note!!
pokemons in your dexnav are able to fled when you try to sneak up to them. And this WILL break your chain!
If you take to long to encounter the pokemon it will Flee and if you Scare the Pokemon away it will also break the Chain.
Hey SmkGaming! I doubt you will remember me and hopefully you will read this comment but a couple of weeks ago I met you in a random Wonder Trade and I was seriously surprised to see that you traded a Shiny Ninetails! I just wanted to say thank you soooo much for her and the amazing opportunity to have such a grey beauty! Again thank you so much and keep up the great work! :)
Not a Problem! Glad you like the Ninetails!
Great tips man! Got a shiny Minun while testing it out for myself.
What about chaining in caves? Is there a different method or is it more difficult?
I didn't know that the search level effects the chain... Cool!
Shout out to Brelooms!
+Graham L. I found out that search levels do not affect the odds of a shiny pokemon. This is an old video about dexnav
Oh. I was hoping that there would be an indicator of how close you are to getting a shiny.
Nope it has nothing to do with finding a shiny pokemon
What would give me an idea if the pkmn on the radar is shiny?
wait so do chains not matter at all like the friend safari?
I've now spent 5 hours in perfect chaining(without screwing up)!!! Am I doing it wrong? I'm searching for a shiny pikachu in safari zone.
+Connorplier Cagle I've made an updated video about dexnav. Chains do not matter when finding shiny pokemon from dex nav. The odds are like friend safari from pokemon x and y 1/512
At the end when he talks about the shiny charm it kinda sounds like says "Hiney Hunting" hahaha xD
Stephen Macpherson it was 5am in the morning after many takes of trying to make this video lol. Things just happened XD
SmkGaming05 Lol xD to be fair hiney hunting can be pretty difficult too dude! Shame there ain't a dex nav for that yet haha
This was super helpful and I am shiny hunting right now. Thanks! : D
SMKGaming05 I was watching this video, and while doing it (after 4 days) I found a Shiny Giratina after 1057 soft resets in AlphaSapphire. Thank you so much man!
Thanks So Sick Bro! Just over 1,000 Soft Resets is not to Bad!
UGH buddy forgot to mention not to multitask eating a slice of pizza with one hand, or else the bushy pokemon will sense disrupted focus and flee right away!
That you so much, I don't know if I'm lucky, but I got shiny Eevee in 40 encounters!
+ThaumiumCrafter The Luck is Strong
The luck is strong with this one
So if I knock out or catch the Pokemon that I don't want that popped up, that won't break the chain. Correct?
Correct! Think of the Chain as a DexNav Only Pokemon Chain, not a Single Pokemon Chain. The Chain will Always Continue to grow if you encounter anything that pops up on the DexNav Only =)
i heard you don't chain with dexnav so it doesn't matter if you run...?
+pebkie chain or no Chain. You will find a shiny pokemon at some point because of using the dexnav. So yes you can run away. It does not ruin your odds of a shiny pokemon.
SmkGaming05 cool, thanks for the fast answer :)
+SmkGaming05 Wait, so DexNaving for shinies is basically the same as random encounters but the chances of encountering a shiny is increased a lot?
pretty much =D If you have a shiny charm it makes it happen more often if you are lucky
+SmkGaming05 ah ok great, I didn't want to spend money on a lot of repels :)
I found a shiny sandshrew with this video’s help!! With only a chain of 5 too!! Thank you so much!
I got a shiny ralts on a search Lv 48
Adam Cook Congrats!
Thanks
If u can find me on pass by I have a shiny silcoon that I found at random
Adam Cook But the head is the same when you search it or blue?
Cool, going g for Gallade or Gardevoir?
This LEGEND has replied to EVERY COMMENT, even though this vid was made 6 YEARS ago
Yeah I get lots of comments about dexnav so I make sure to answer them when I see them :)
this really helped! i got a shiny Chatot using this method!
That's Awesome!!
and just got a shiny cherrim :D
Nicely done!
now, im shiny hunting for a shuppet...
my friend is going to be mad at me XD
(ps, the chatot had 3 stars, egg move, and something else...)
If a pokemon runs before you sneak up to it does the chain break
Thank you!! I'm going to use this to get my flawless beautiful team~!
Hope you get it! =)
SmkGaming05 I got a shiny vagina
@@joyseromero2104 5 years later and I'm still wondering wtf
Thank you! This helped me get the hang of using that thing and I've found some pretty good Pokemon with it.
Glad to help! =)
Hah dude you use the same pokemon I do as my lead when I'm hunting pokemon.
IT WORKS!!
Got my first shiny Poochyena!
Thank you dude! THANK YOU!!!!!!

Where do you get one?
SmkGaming05 Register me as your friend my friend code is 1135-0912-4247. By the way my name is Kameron
Ok for the nav if you look in your bag like new repel does it break it and or switch pokemon? Along does it break if f you move to slowly/ react slow.. And.. If it can't find it.. If this makes sence to you...
I lost my pokemon alpha sapphire with a crap ton of legit shinys on it ;( i cri everytime
+Bob Dave Do More Shiny Hunting! Get them Back =)
+SmkGaming05 but that's the problem I can't find my pokemon alpha sapphire
Yepperz did you find it?
nope never did :/
I lost my 3ds with all my games I feel you 😩 but now I got a 2ds with Pokemon alpha sapphire , Pokemon moon , Pokemon black2
I caught a shiny Poochyena today :D I wasn't even searching for a shiny, just trying to fill in my dex! I screamed so loud xD
Freja Wright That is awesome! Congrats =)
Thanks! I hope I will get the hang of dexnav chaining soon. I really want a shiny Joltik :)
it's an awesome Shiny! Don't Worry about Breaking a Chain. Dexnav is a fixed rate. just do as many encounters as you can for joltik when you got the time to shiny hunt.
Freja W Nice
I got a shiny snivy in a wonder trade gave the guy a non shiny zigzagoon WORTH IT!
I got a Shiny Arceus in wonder trade
Same but I got a shiny Golem
Does your chain brake if you close your 3ds but does not close the game?
Ian Blind No it does not =)
SmkGaming05 ihave a shiny ralts thx man dab
So does it matter if I'm shiny hunting for a specific Pokemon got a good chain going and a different one appears do I have to focus on that pokemon or can I go back to other one I was doing?
Yes you can Back to the Pokemon you were Hunting. Just Research After you Faint or Catch the random Dex Nav Pokemon
Thanks
No Problem!
What's a good number for chaining with the dexnav? On Pokémon y and x, the pokeradar is 40 to find a shiney out of 1-200
Azucena Mcarther You don't Need to Chain anymore. Dexnav has a Fixed Shiny Rate. Very Similar to Friend Safaris. I talk about it in my Update Dexnav Video.
I never heard of this until today. While watching your video I started doing this on Route 113 just to see what would happen. After 3 DexNav finds I came across a level 28 Skarmory with a special move (can't remember it now). So many thanks!
+J McKinney great job!
+SmkGaming05 do u have legendary Pokemon
Yeah I have them all
+SmkGaming05 can I hve a legendary or 2 plz
Sorry for asking u for a lot of stuff but plz add me
FC:5215 3604 6376
I use search level as a kinda "You found 167 of this pokemon"
It really helps to keep count of how many of this one pokemon i found, and to know how long i took to get a shiny, and DexNav shiny odds are around 1/350
Ok. I'm glad you are really helpful. The reason why I want to find a shiny Zorua is because I encountered a shiny Riolu in Y, so I thought another bipedal Pokemon would be nice. Obviously, it's hard to encounter shiny mewtwo. So thanks again a whole bunch!

Wow this is seriously the best video, you're so clear with your words and you explain everything so nicely.
This helped me out a lot, thank you so much c:
Zeiyuu Lysierra No Problem! Glad I could Help =)
SmkGaming05 Noww I just need to put all that I've learned from this video into finding and catching a shiny Seviperrrrr
you will get it! Keep trying!
SmkGaming05 I will! I can't give up it looks too awesomeee ; u ;
Right Right!!!
nice vid ! what does smk stands for? do u play WoW?
Was watching this since I never tried shiny hunting dexnav style. Afterwards I watched your Dexnav shiny Ralts reaction. At that video i caught my 1st shiny dexnav. A raticate. I named it after you 😁
Hey SMK or anyone else I actually have a question. I maybe wrong about this but is it true that having synchronize as an ability in your party (ex. Gardivour) gives wild pokemon a better chance of having that same nature as that Gardivour? I am curious because I wanted to start shiny hunting eevee.

Yes having a Pokemon with the Ability of "Synchronize" will have a 50% chance of passing nature that to the wild pokemon you encounter. you don't have to do it but's an option.
Alright just wanted to fully make sure because I want to have a Shiny Competitive Umbreon and Jolteon so thanks for answering!
Not a Problem!
Did you have the shiny charm at this time? I've been hunting for a shiny electrike for 3 days lol, using both horde & dexnav
DonFahim14 when i recorded this video I did not have the shiny Charm. But you can get Shiny Pokemon without the Shiny Charm.
is there a way to count the encounters without making a video? like something you download on your pc or something? please help
+9puppys use a Calculator on your computer. that it what I do :D
Will the chain break if you catch the pokemon?
Orlando Chanon No. Don't Worry about breaking a Chain. Dexnav has a Fixed Rate for Shiny pokemon. About 1/512
Hey, I captured 3 cottonee and It won't show it colored on the dexnav. Any advice?
Shiny Hunter Kirlia do you have the national dexnax? It should show up once you get the national dex.
Instructions weren't clear enough, ended up in a snowball fight on club penguin
how about resetting your dexnav when the pokemon u dont want comes up? by that i mean will running into a diiferent patch of grass to reset the dexnav break your chain?
Mining Trim nvm i watched the rest of the vid xD
Would put your 3DS in Sleep Mode break the chain as well? Just wondering
Sleep mode is okey Idk for how long but I put my game in sleep mode and my chain Continued. Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Thanks for the video ! It may help me a lot ! I bought the game a week ago, but I'm still trying to get my shiny Treecko.. I guess I'm not a lucky person.. You speak really clearly btw ! It seems really simple when I hear you speak about it ! Thanks again ;)
Not a Problem! Glad I could Help =)
Omg, thank ya so much! I really needed to know this information, was shiny hunting while watching lol
I'm trying to find a shiny zigzagoon, search llevel? 562...
+CherryBombCake :3 my little brother found a Shiny Zigzagoon by accident... 5 minutes into his save file... "Hey Bradley, this zigzagoon is orange"
Now just the other day by mistake I ran away from a shiny, don't remember what it was but for sure I was pissed!
Probably was one of those shinys that barely change, like Dewgong.
What recording software do you use?
so if i chain a pokemon enough i can catch one at lvl 90+??
if after 5 encounters or so it jumps 10 levels
+RasorShoTz It jumps 10 Levels from what the Normal Route Level for that pokemon is.
could you plz explain what the thing is with the chain?
Higher Chain means a better chance of finding a Pokemon that is shiny!
ok I have a question: even when you used a max repel u could still encounter a wild Pokémon, this that break your chain?
Nabeel AlMulla It will break a chain say if a pokemon has popped up in the grass and you are walking towards it and you get a random encounter before you got the dexnav encounter.
SmkGaming05 ok, thanks 4 ans me so qiukly, I'm running a "FULL SHINY DEX" so that is a huge help, thank you sir ^_^
SmkGaming05 I try it today, sadly yes encounter a wild Pokémon WILL break your chain, even when using max repel , so luck is needed as well
Yes Random Encounters Do Break Chains that's why you use repels in the First Place. They can Fail but I Rarely had Repels Fail when I used to Chain with the dexnav.
Nabeel AlMulla That is a risk but it never really happens
thank you for making this video I never knew how to chain properly and this really helped
Glad I could Help =)
now all I haft to do I grind surskits for the next 20 hour with my luck
Good Luck!
Do you have to chain in 2021 for dex nav? Or is it based off of the amount of Times you’ve encountered the Pokémon?
No chain needed. Search level and shiny charm will increase your shiny odds for Dexnav 👍
As I watched this video, I happened across an Absol holding a Life Orb. Apparently, those can only be found via the DexNav. It will definitely save me a lot of BP!
WITH A LIFE ORB! That's a HUGE WIN!
Oh yeah. A lot of them had Life Orbs, including the Shiny Absol (which was the 93rd in the chain.)
THAT'S AMAZING!!
I'm still a little confused.If I'm chaining for a pokemon,and a different pokemon appears on the the dexnav and I go to it it and knock it it out,do I have to go 4 that pokemon to keep the chain alive?and when I knock out the pokemon that popped up it takes me to the screen with all the pokemon icons.can I select the pokemon I was chaining and continue,or is my chain broken?
once you kill/catch a random Pokemon that may appear on the dexnav just go back into searching for the pokemon you want. Remember the Chain itself is a Chain for DexNav Sneaks not for the pokemon you really want to be shiny.
SmkGaming05 Thanks.
No Problem!
To SmkGaming05: what do you use to play these games, is it on a computer or legitimately a 3DS?
It's a Legit 3DS! It has a Capture Board Built into the Handheld which makes it able to plug into a Computer via Mini USB
SmkGaming05 thank you, I was just curious, Friend
Not a Problem!
If a pokemon runs before you sneak up to it is the chain broken?
wait so likee the chain is how many time u encounter and kill? its still confusing
Here's a problem. I am hunting for a shiny Zoroa, but suddenly, the Dexnav reacts to a different pokemon. What do I do?
If it reacts to a Different pokemon encounter it kill or catch it and then research for the pokemon you want after you kill/catch the random Pokemon.
i really enjoy how you get really into this. it makes me feel like you really enjoy teaching
Can't you switch off between two tm's to replenish moves?
+JustpressR yes you could
Hey SMK! What is that cloud flying around your logo in bottom left?
That would be the "Flying Nimbus" From Dragonball/ Dragonball Z
Great video
I actually got a random shiny zigzagon by simply just walking through the grass during the early stages of pokemon Alpha sapphire after the forest
can you scare another Pokemon that's not the Pokemon you want shiny? OR do you have to battle it?
AotGamingCrew you can scare them away if you don't want it yes. You don't have to Chain to Find Shiny Pokemon. Just get as Many Dexnav Encounters and you will Find a Shiny!
Thanks great help!
Anytime!
I found out that even if a pokemon has 3 stars for potential it could actually have more maximum IVs. i chained for zorua after i saw your video and got one with 4 max IVs :D
if i accidentally press the Y button but click B to close it does it break my chain?
DragonKing Gaming no that doesn't break your chain. you can switch pokemon use items and it won't hurt the chain
