This thread is mainly for the shiny pokemon hunters using the chaining method discovered<? by Shuko:
Shiny Pokemon with the Pokeradar
But since that thread is getting so long and cluttered, I decided to put one here
to compare highest chains. The Poketch app #20 should tell you. Add any interesting stories about them if you wish.
Mine:
Pikachu - 74
Absol - 64
Noctowl - 59
I'm not very good at shiny hunting and only have 6, one from each time I've successfully chained past 40...:P
~Happy chaining~

let me see
ponyta - 7
sudowoodo - 6
roselia - 5

As you can see i have totally mastered chaining...
 
Roselia - 32
Surskit - 24
Geodude - 23

I'm going to get to that 40 mark today. Honest. o.o
 
Cubone - 51 (encountered 2 shinies, killed 1, caught 1)
Starly - 48 (caught 1 shiny)
Shellos (West) - 48 (caught 1 shiny)

I have caught several other shinies in different chains, the lowest being 9 for a Ralts. >_<

Yes, a shiny still counts as one pokemon in a chain, so unless you broke the chain because of the pokeradar rules, the chain continues.

I usually carry more than a hundred max repels. I don't use them all, though.
 
I keep about 400 supers at all times because one time I couldn't find any shinies after resetting for an hour and then I found two =/

Oops I forgot to post mine;
ponyta: 66
geodude: 65
shinx: 49

Just a bit of practice after I first got the Poké Radar.

Lickitung: 25
They were swarming, so I figured I would give it a shot. A Wobbuffet inexplicably broke the chain.

Ralts: 19
This is my quest. I've attempted it many times, this record being my latest, but it always seems to end the same way. Route 204 is littered with the bodies of many a Close Combat'd Bidoof that got in my way.
 
Can someone please tell me how you acually chain? iv had a dozen people try to explain it to me and i dont get it!
 
Phanpy - 111 (*Got six shinies from this chain*)
Nosepass - 84 (*Got seven shinies from this chain*)
Pichu - 64 (*Two shinies with this one :D*)
 
NOBODY can beat this
(took me about a month of trying)
196 Elekid's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(11 shinies)
 
Abra - 64 (3 shinies)
Zigzagoon - 59 (4 shinies, but killed 1)
Geodude - 58 (3 shinies)

However, I've had lower chains that produced much more shinies. For example, my chain of 53 Meditite got me 15 shinies. I've learned that resetting at 40 or even a little lower will get you as many shinies as you want. In all the chains where I've gotten a lot of shinies, I broke my chains by flying away when I felt I had enough. This is a lot more boring than trying to get the chain higher, but if you really want multiple shinies, it's a good idea.
