:If all four patches of grass generate outside the map, the chain breaks instantly. You were standing in a corner, which means the probability of this happening is (5/8)*(11/16)*(17/24)*(23/32), or about about 22%. This is why most guides advise against chaining in corners or on edges. Anyhow, that's probably what happened. [[User:Natnew|Natnew]] ([[User talk:Natnew|talk]]) 23:34, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

::Yep, that's what happened, not what I'm questioning. Thing is, the page says "Stepping on a Shiny patch will never break a chain", which as seen, is not what happens. Just stating this out as this edit plus the Bebe's Eevee one was changed back for some reason. So, I decided to not do an edit-back war by changing the page again non-stop.
 
::Also, at the time I wasn't worried about stepping on the corner patch, because of what the page here said. Either way, wouldn't not have gone to it, it was a shiny patch after all. [[User:SpikOriundo|SpikOriundo]] ([[User talk:SpikOriundo|talk]]) 02:28, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

:::I thought that maybe the game should be showing a message if the Poke Radar couldn't generate a valid patch after automatically activating, but I tried short chains in the south end of {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} and the only time I saw a message was after I ''manually'' used the Poke Radar (and not if it broke after it should have automatically activated).

:::So it's not a result of stepping in a wrong patch. I presume the Poke Radar app would have counted that Shiny as part of your chain (which you may be able to verify if it's one of your top 3). The chain breaks for a different reason ''afterwards'', not when you step in the Shiny patch, like Natnew said.
