How to Get Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion

The Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion is a tool that helps players explore and find wild Pokémon without relying on random battles. When used properly, it lets you encounter the same species of Pokémon repeatedly, which is useful for completing your Pokédex, hunting for fusions, and looking for shiny Pokémon.

The Poké Radar shows visible shaking grass instead of normal wild encounters. This guide explains how to get the Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion, how it works, and how to use it correctly to maintain your chains.

What Is the Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion?

The Poké Radar in Infinite Fusion helps you to find wild Pokémon without random battles. This tool allows you to encounter the same type of encounters over and over which is helpful for completing your Pokédex, hunting for fusions, and searching for shiny Pokémon.

The Poké Radar does not change how battles work. Its main goal is to make encounters more consistent. Instead of running into random Pokémon, the radar lets you meet the same species repeatedly if you follow the movement rules properly.

The Poké Radar is useful for:

• Finding specific Pokémon you desire.
• Collecting multiple copies for fusion purposes.
• Chaining for shiny hunting.
• Completing the Pokédex quickly

You can only use the Poké Radar in tall grass. It does not work in caves, water, or indoors.

How to Get the Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion

The Poké Radar is not available at the very start of Pokémon Infinite Fusion, so players need to progress through the story before they can obtain it. Once certain events are completed, follow these steps to get the Poké Radar:

Steps to Get the Poké Radar

The Poké Radar is obtained from Professor Oak.

Play until you reach Cerulean City.

Follow the story from the routes below until you get to Cerulean City.

Enter the Pokémon Center in Cerulean City.

Look around the room inside the Pokémon Center.

Find Professor Oak’s assistant, a girl/scientist NPC who says she works with him.

Talk to her about Pokémon fusions (using DNA Splicers).

Get the Exp. Share first. If you haven’t fused enough, do more fusions and talk to her again.

After you get the Exp. Share, she will mention her research plan north of Cerulean City.

Leave Cerulean by the north exit, cross Nugget Bridge, and enter Route 24. Look for her in the grass.

Talk to her. She will ask you to catch an Abra for her research. Say yes, catch an Abra on Route 24.

Walk in the tall grass on Route 24 around Professor Oak’s assistant, a girl until you find an Abra and catch it, then return to her.

Dialogue with her after catching Abra. She will thank you and give you the Poké Radar as your reward.

Once you have the Poké Radar, you can use it as a quick-access item. Use it in tall grass to create shaking patches and start encounter chains.

Requirements Before Getting the Poké Radar

You cannot get the Poké Radar early in Infinite Fusion. It is a late-game or post-game item, similar to how it works in FireRed, though some details may differ by version.

Before you can get the Poké Radar, you normally need to:

• Complete the main Kanto storyline.
• Access Pallet Town after key story events.
• The ability to freely travel between regions and routes

If you try to get the Poké Radar too soon, the needed NPC will not give it to you. This does not mean your save file is broken; it just means you need to progress further in the game.

How the Poké Radar Works in Pokémon Infinite Fusion

To use the Poké Radar, stand in tall grass. The radar makes nearby grass squares shake. Each shaking square is a spot where a Pokémon is hiding. Step into one of these squares to start a battle that follows the radar’s guidelines.

If you continue to encounter the same species of Pokémon repeatedly in the shaking grass, you will create a “chain.” This chain will only continue if you move precisely and consistently choose the right shaking patch.

What happens when you use it

• Stand in tall grass and use the Poké Radar from your bag.
• Several nearby grass tiles start shaking.
• Each shaking tile represents a possible radar encounter.
• Walking onto a shaking tile will start a radar battle.

Important rules for chains

• Only battles that occur in shaking grass count toward your Poké Radar chain.
• A normal wild encounter (in non-shaking grass) will break the chain.
• Leaving the grass or walking too far away will also break the chain.
• After each battle, the Poké Radar requires a short period and a certain number of steps to recharge before you can use it again.

It’s important to note that the Poké Radar does not guarantee rare Pokémon. Instead, it helps make your encounters more consistent, allowing you to continue finding the same species instead of a variety of different random Pokémon.

How to Use the Poké Radar Step by Step

Poké Radar is much easier to use if you go slowly and follow these steps.

Steps to use:

Pick a good grass area

Look for a large patch of tall grass where you can move around easily.

Stand in the grass

Walk into the grass and stop near the center.

Use a Repel (Optional)

You can use a Repel to prevent normal wild Pokémon from appearing.

Turn on the Poké Radar

Open your bag to activate the Poké Radar.

Watch for shaking grass

After you use it, look for grass patches that start shaking

Walk into a shaking tile

Choose one shaking patch and walk straight into it to start a battle.

Defeat or catch the Pokémon

Beat the Pokémon or catch it. This keeps your chain going if you catch the same species.

Let the radar recharge

After the battle, walk a few steps in the grass to let the radar recharge.

Use the Poké Radar again

Stay in the grass and use the Poké Radar again to create more shaking patches.

Avoid breaking the chain

Do not leave the grass, and attempt not to get a normal (non‑shaking) encounter.

If you leave the grass, walk into a patch of grass without shaking, or have a random encounter, your chain will reset.

Shiny Hunting with Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion

Shiny hunting with the Poké Radar allows you to search for shiny Pokémon in a controlled way, instead of relying on random encounters. When you find the same Pokémon repeatedly with the radar, you create a “chain.” Longer chains increase your chances of finding shinies compared to normal grass battles.

As your chain grows:

You get more chances for special encounters.

Your odds of finding shinies improve over regular encounters.

You can keep hunting in the same area without changing routes.

What to expect:

Shinies are not guaranteed, even with a long chain. While the odds improve, they remain rare.

Chains can break if you leave the grass, encounter a normal Pokémon, or step on the wrong tile.

In some versions of the game, saving during a chain may reset it. It is safer to finish your chain before stopping.

Because chains can break at any time, many players aim for a “safe” number, like 20 or 30 in a chain. If they don’t find a shiny by then, they may restart and try a new chain instead of risking a very long one.

Best Places to Use Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion

The best places to use Poké Radar are large, open grass areas. These spots allow you to move freely without hitting edges or obstacles. This makes it easier to keep your chains going without accidentally breaking them.

What makes a good Poké Radar area

• Large grass patches give you space to walk to new shaking tiles.
• Few or no obstacles, like trees, rocks, or ledges, make movement easier.
• Simple paths let you move in straight lines without tight corners.
• Mid to late-game routes with wide, open grass work best. Smaller or awkward grass patches can lead you to step out of the grass and break your chain.

Places to avoid for chaining

• Thin grass strips where you can step out of the grass quickly.
• Routes with ledges that make you jump down and leave the area.
• Grass patches with trainers, since battles interrupt your chaining.

Good Poké Radar spots have large grass patches, minimal obstacles, and easy movement paths. Mid to late game routes with open grass are ideal. Avoid narrow grass strips, forced ledges, and areas with trainers.

Poké Radar Chaining Explained for Pokémon Infinite Fusion

A chain is the number of consecutive battles in which you encounter the same species of Pokémon using the Poké Radar without breaking the rules. In Pokémon Infinite Fusion, your chain will reset to 0 if:

Encounter a different Pokémon species.

You leave the grass area.

Have a regular wild encounter that doesn’t come from shaking grass

How to keep your chain going

To maintain your chain:

Always walk into a shaking grass patch, not regular grass.  

Avoid unnecessary movements, like diagonal walking, that could push you out of range.  

Stay in the same grass area; do not step out from it.  

Only use the Poké Radar again after it has fully recharged (after you’ve taken enough steps).

Chaining only works for radar encounters in grass. It doesn’t affect story events, trainers, or gym battles.

Rare Pokémon and Special Encounters Using Poké Radar

Using the Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion makes it easier to find rare Pokémon and have special encounters. Instead of relying on random battles, you can create chains to see the same Pokémon repeatedly. This simplifies the process of hunting and farming.

Why Poké Radar helps with rare Pokémon

The Poké Radar increases your chances of encountering certain Pokémon compared to normal grass encounters. Some Pokémon are difficult to find when walking around, but become easier to find with chains.

Factors Affecting Results

Different routes have different Pokémon in the grass, so the radar results can change depending on your location. Your game version or settings can also affect which Pokémon you encounter.

Benefits for Fusion Combinations

The Poké Radar helps you quickly see what Pokémon appear in an area. You can focus on one patch of grass and repeatedly trigger shaking tiles. This is especially useful for gathering good fusions without having to search all over the map.

Final Summary

The Poké Radar in Pokémon Infinite Fusion is a late-game tool designed to help players control their encounters with Pokémon in tall grass, rather than relying only on random encounters. When used properly, it allows for consistent encounters with the same species, making it an ideal resource for shiny hunting, fusion planning, and catching specific Pokémon.

To use the Poké Radar, players need to follow certain movement rules, such as only entering shaking grass, staying within the same patch, and waiting for the radar to recharge. By understanding how chains can break, players can maximize the benefits of the Poké Radar and avoid wasting time or losing progress.
