Poké Radar
A tool that can search out Pokémon that are hiding in grass. Its battery is recharged as you walk.
Detailed Effect
Designates several nearby patches of grass as containing Pokémon, some of which may be special radar-only Pokémon. Successive uses in a certain way create chains of encounters with the same species; longer chains increase the chance that a shiny Pokémon of that species will appear.
