Thanks a lot for this video and poke radar guide. I followed whatever you said and finally got shiny millitank after many trials and failures. Next one to go will be goomy.
Thank you for good video and very clear for me. And thank you for the subtitling, if without subtitling then never understanding for me because i'm bad hearing. Only one thing problem for me is sound if broken or not.
Doubt you're still responding to comments on this video but I was wondering if you knew if catches are still more likely to continue your chain as opposed to KOs, similar to how Bulbapedia says the radar works in DPPt? Thank you for the resources, they're still helping people to this day!
The “capture bonus” mentioned by Bulbapedia for D/P/Pt radar supposedly increases odds for the correct species of pokémon to show up in the next encounter but only for the shake cycle directly after the capture. This “capture bonus” doesn’t actually help much in practice because more often than not you won’t get an ideal patch spawn directly after an encounter. The “capture bonus” is extremely relevant in BP/SP radar chaining however because in those games you are always guaranteed an ideal patch spawn every shake cycle. For X/Y radar chaining the odds that your chain continues with an ideal patch is higher than in D/P/Pt and MUCH higher than in BD/SP whether you capture a pokémon or not so there is seemingly no need for a “capture bonus” to exist. However, a few years back there was a Datamine done on X/Y radar chaining that determined the existence of a “capture bonus”. The result from the Datamine wasn’t super clear but from what I understood the “capture bonus” for X/Y radar chaining only increases the odds for “fast shakers” to appear on the shake cycle directly after the capture. If this is indeed all the “capture bonus” does in X/Y radar chaining then it’s not worth capturing every pokémon for such a negligible benefit. In my experience, I can build radar chains more reliably in X/Y capturing nothing than I can in D/P/Pt or BD/SP catching everything, X/Y radar is just that much more lenient in comparison. I hope that made sense. I’m glad you are still finding the resources useful.
Thank you very much for this incredibly detailed tutorial with fantastic linked resources. You can certainly see the great effort you put into this, thank you, I'll be using your route analysis document quite a bit! Always loved Gen6, and had stumbled into some working methods getting shiny Scatterbug for all the forms, but so much here I never knew. Wish I saw this years ago :D EDIT: I had wondered what you though of the listed Gen4 odds, and the Gen6 research of 23, 43, 63, 83% of fast shakers. Now that I've watched the rest of your videos, I see you covered it in the "Shiny Patch Odds" video. You must surely have the definitive info on XY radar methods, such well presented data and resources! My own confusion to the 83% was resolved realising this is fast shaker odds only, that medium can also be shiny, and separately, those numbers have no bearing on the odds the chained Pokémon doesn't appear. What those odds are precisely, I guess remains an open question, but as you gathered so much experimental data I trust your 98-99% for zone 4 numbers a whole lot!
Thank you soooo much for this tutorial! I chained with poke radar in Pearl before and it's a bit different. So of course for my first Pokemon Y shiny I wanted Dedenne from route 3 that you had listed to have hardness of 10/10 and first I was failing a lot. Well, thanks to your tips, I finally did it! My next one will be something easier though. This is super fun. Thanks again, very well and throughoutly explained!
BDSP has an extremely simplified version of radar chaining and most of what I cover in this video doesn’t apply to BDSP at all. Radar chaining in DPPt is mechanically nearly identical to XY but there are a lot of minor differences.
Before watching this guide, a lot of other youtubers said that walking into a shaking patch with shiking grass next to it, will break your chain. Have i just missed you saying that, or is it a misconception?
I'm aware some other youtubers claim that but it is just superstition. I have never followed that "rule" and have not noticed such cases to break chains noticably more often than any other ideal patch.
Why doesn’t this have more views?? This is probably the best guide I’ve ever seen for this method and I can’t wait to try it
Dude, forty minutes? That’s a whole lot of effort for something like this, you’ve earned more from me than my subscription.
After a ton of of failed chains, I finally got the little golden plant goat of my dreams!! Thank you dude!
Got a Shiny Goomy after watching your videos and document! Such detail! Helped so much after own failed attempts ✨ 🙏
Thanks a lot for this video and poke radar guide. I followed whatever you said and finally got shiny millitank after many trials and failures. Next one to go will be goomy.
This is the definitive Pokéradar guide
Thank you so much for the shiny abra i just got on Route 5 in X :)
Thank you for good video and very clear for me.
And thank you for the subtitling, if without subtitling then never understanding for me because i'm bad hearing.
Only one thing problem for me is sound if broken or not.
Lad is give you a handy for this guide. Bless your soul. Most RUclipsrs know squat like this. Bless you
Got shiny Zoroark after so many failed chains! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for the guide i just got my shiny eevee after a lot of attempts but luckily i got in a chain of 1
Thanks Bro you helped me so much
thanks to you in 2024 i got my first shiny skiddo in pokemon x. Thank you so much .
Best video ever!
I have got like 4 shiny riolu today but my device didnt process the shine so i couldnt able to catch it but the sound changed so i know
I break my chain in #35 🥺
Riolu 5% on route 22
JUST GOT A SHINY ABRA TYSM
Thanks!
Ty for this old video now i can get my red pancham
I got grogunk at 17 chain
does it work in BDSP und DPP the same way?

TY Based God, just got a shiny Skiddo as a gift for my bf thanks to your amazing tutorial
What happens when the music changes to a higher tempo and different tune ?
