Chaining

Chains

Pokémon can be 'chained' by defeating or capturing the same species consecutively. This can provide boosts to wild Pokémon IVs, as well as the rate at which Hidden Ability and Shiny Pokémon of that species spawn. Players can see their chain by typing '/counter [ko/capture]'. Both a KO and capture chain can be ran simultaneously, allowing you to chain up to two Pokémon species at one time.
