*IMPORTANT* This video is NOT to disprove DexNav shiny hunting, because it's not proven either, that's why I put "??" on the video title.

Fishing Shiny Chaining Disprove: http://youtu.be/fGJSlJQF-i4

I do this video because I really believe that the theory of DexNav chaining for shiny pokemon is just a myth, the shiny pokemon encountered is just a RANDOM encounter. We've all seen so many video claims that DexNav shiny chain is true but some videos shows that the chaining can go up to 600 or over 1000, some even encounter a shiny pokemon that he was not looking for in the first place.

So I decided to go into Rusturf Tunnel, get on my bike, and start encountering Whismur, and at no. 348 encounter, I've got a shiny Whismur. This doesn't necessary DISPROVES DexNav shiny chaining is false because it's not really PROVEN yet, there is no solid evidence for that. I mean over 1000 chain really doesn't prove anything, it looks more like a random encounter to me.

Also it doesn't matter if you are looking for a certain shiny pokemon, you will encounter ANY shiny pokemon if you are patient enough. But the only thing DexNav does is that it almost ensure you can encounter the same pokemon as you have just killed. But it doesn't necessarily increase shiny encounter rate. I will try to hunt for shiny pokemon by walking in a patch on grass, with different kinds of pokemon that I can encounter. That will further disprove DexNav shiny chaining.

It's better to have shiny charm because it DOES increase shiny encounter rate by 300% because it has been proven already. DexNav shiny chaining however has not.

Again I'm not saying I disprove it that's why I put "??" on my video title. But you cannot say it has been proven either.

I've seen a LOT of people comment like "I got the chain to XXX and I fucking broke it!", "XXX chain, still no luck", my suggestion is, get a shiny charm first and stop wasting your time on chaining, and just go for random encounter. It's a lot less painful when you don't even know if chaining is true or not.
