A user on the Smogon forums named FroggestSpirit has found the actual percentage of continuing the chain for each patch of grass generated by the PokeRadar. The first ring has a 28% chance, the second has a 48% chance, the third a 68% chance, and the fourth a 88% chance. Also, catching a Pokemon rather than fainting it boosts the chance of continuing the chain by 10%. This goes away if the PokeRadar is reset. The original post can be found [http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/chaining-with-the-pokeradar-the-correct-way-gp-2-2.3486334/ here]. FroggestSpirit claims to have found this out by reverse-engineering the game's code, whereas previous PokeRadar mechanics were based on purely experimentation. I'd like to see his notes and find the actual location in the ROM so this can be investigated further.

== PokeRadar Exclusive Pokemon ==
How do you determine which patch of grass has the rare PokeRadar exclusive Pokemon in it? From what I can tell, it's all random. I just want one very hard to catch Pokemon (on Route 201 in Sinnoh), but I can't tell which patches of grass to go for, the ones that shake the longest or the ones that have the movement animation motion on them (the same as when you walk through the grass yourself).
