Chaining Vulpix=Impossible

Has anyone else noticed that chaining vulpix is impossible....I seriously need a strategy.....I keeps using roar on me so I use octillery but for some reason octillery stuffs my chain....need help!
 
I've never tried chaining for Vulpix, but if you have an Octillery w/ Suction Cups, you shouldn't have any trouble. How big of a chain have you goten with Octillery?
 
oh thats like when you use the pokeradar and like you aint a pokemon and like another one appears and you do that until its a shiny rioght?
 
I have gotten 8.....now you may think that is really bad but I usually get into the 40's......I did the chain perfectly and it still stuffed up!!! I am so annoyed with it......
 
There are good days and bad days while chaining. Just keep at it (and make sure you're in an area where there are no trees in your patch of grass, if something happens in one of those areas you probably won't see them).
 
No it's not the fighting part....It's the chaining part....they just stuff my chain every time.



I don't think you guys understand.....These are my shinies: togepi x3, shinx x3, mareep, skitty.........I am a very advance chainer
 
Well if you know what chaining is.......stops my chain.....I am assuming that you don't so chaining is when you use the pokeradar and you continuously battle pokemon in a routine sort of......It's hard to explain...but basically it stops my chain
 
Yeah. Chaining is pretty difficult (or at least getting a chained Shiny is). You just have to pick your spot and devote a couple of hours. Usually your chain gets busted a couple of times (like on 38 or 39...), but if you sit there for long enough, you'll get one.
 
It's true, it just takes plain luck to find and chain a shiny pokemon like nidoran, vulpix, or miltank. Why? Because these pokemon are exclusive to a certain game or they are found with the pokeradar ;262;
 
I think that person knows what chaining is, seeing as he/she usually gets chains within the 40's and already has gotten some shinies from it.

The easiest way to do it is simply with a strong Pokémon. Basically any high-level Pokémon will do. Since Roar always goes last, it shouldn't be a trouble to get first. Just train a Pokémon till a high enough level to OHKO. Of course, level 100 is best for this.
If you encounter a shiny, you have three options. You can switch to a Pokémon with Suction Cups or Soundproof as ability, you can put them to sleep on your first turn or you can simply chuck a Nest Ball at them as soon as you encounter them. This last thing is provided you have a high level Pokémon. I don't know what level the Vulpix are when you encounter them with the PokéRadar, but I don't think they are able to escape from a Nestball when you have a level 100 Pokémon.

If you have Emerald, it is very easy to mass clone Rare Candies, so it is easy to get a level 100 on there. But if you are against cloning or don't own Emerald, simple and boring training is your only option.

I hope I helped.

I get it now. :p. But It shouldn't be THAT hard to catch a Vulpix. :).
