What breaks your chain DexNav?

Failing to capture or defeat the wild Pokemon for any reason will break the chain. Once it appears, failing to encounter a hidden wild Pokemon in the wild for any reason (walking too fast, walking too far away, or taking too long and letting it run away) will break the chain.

Does fainting a Pokemon break the chain?

What continues or breaks the chain? Encountering and fainting the same Pokemon over and over will increase your chain. Encountering another Pokemon while in a chain will not disrupt the chain unless you catch or faint the Pokemon that is not the one you are chaining.

Does running away break shiny chain Oras?

Defeat the Pok\xe9mon. This will be a very long and tedious process, so be prepared to spend hours fighting Pok\xe9mon. Remember to not run away from a Pok\xe9mon, as doing that breaks your chain. If a Pok\xe9mon runs away, your chain is broken, restart.

Does repel affect DexNav?

Yes. First, I recommend that you get some repels. These will prevent randomized encounters, but you can still find Pokemon through the DexNav while a repel is active.
