DexNav: Difference between revisions

If no wild Pokémon appear in a particular location (except in the cave called "[[Sky Pillar]]" that leads to the tower itself), a red background with an image of a [[Poké Ball]] logo and a {{p|Pikachu}} menu sprite are displayed. Tapping on the DexNav's screen will display the message, "There are no wild Pokémon in this area." In the cave called "Sky Pillar" prior to the actual tower, the background image that appears is the same as that of the tower itself, although no wild Pokémon appear there and it displays the same message as other locations without wild Pokémon when tapped.

The color of the crown shown depends on the player's catching progress for the current area:

Every species of Pokémon has its own Search Level, equal to the number of times that species has been seen (the "times encountered", as shown in the Pokédex). As a species' Search Level increases, the DexNav will be able to give the player more details about hidden Pokémon of that species. The color of the background on the Found Pokémon, Nearby Pokémon, and Hidden Pokémon screens ranges from shades of gray to orange depending on the subject Pokémon's Search Level.

** Pokémon encountered in Link Battles between two players are not counted as being seen

The DexNav performs a special calculation to determine if a hidden Pokémon will be forced to be {{Shiny}}. This algorithm primarily depends on the Pokémon's Search Level, but may also be influenced by other factors. Note that even if the DexNav does not force a Pokémon to be Shiny, it may still naturally end up Shiny.

To check if a hidden Pokémon will be forced to be Shiny, the game compares a target number with a random number from 0 to 9,999, and if the random value is less than the target value, it will be Shiny. The target value depends on the Pokémon's Search Level. For every Search Level from 1 to 100, the target value increases by 6 (starting from 0), for every Search Level from 101 to 200, the target increases by 2, and for every Search Level above 200, the target increases by 1, with the total finally divided by 100. This means that a Pokémon with a Search Level of 100 has a target of 600 / 100 = 6; if its Search Level is 200, the target is 800 / 100 = 8; if its Search Level is 250, the target is 850 / 100 = 8.5. Since this is compared against a random number less than 10,000, this means that the chance of forcing a Shiny Pokémon starts at 0.01% at Search Level 1, and it increases by 0.01% after every 16 ²/₃ Search Levels up to 100 (turning to 0.07% at Search Level 101), after every 50 Search Levels up to 200 (turning to 0.09% at Search Level 201), and after every 100 Search Levels thereafter. By comparison, the natural chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon is approximately 0.024%.

This check to force a Pokémon to be Shiny may be repeated multiple times. For any hidden Pokémon, this check is performed at least once. If a random number from 0 to 99 is less than 4, it will be performed four extra times. If the player has the [[Shiny Charm]], the check will be performed two extra times. Finally, if the player is encountering their 50th Pokémon in a chained streak with the DexNav, the check will be performed five extra times, or if they are encountering their 100th chained Pokémon, it will be performed ten extra times. These extra checks can stack, for a maximum possible number of 17 checks.
