A tool that can search out Pokémon that are hiding in tall grass. Its battery is recharged as you walk.
When used, patches of grass will shake, indicating where Pokémon are located. When the player steps on the tile where the grass shook, a battle will begin. If the wild Pokémon was defeated or caught, the grass will shake again. This can be chained to increase the chance of finding a shiny Pokémon or one with its Hidden Ability. When used, there is a 12% chance to find a Pokémon with its Hidden Ability. Additionally, some Pokémon that cannot be found in grass can be found with the Poké Radar on certain routes, to give players a chance to find Pokémon with Hidden Abilities that are normally unavailable. Green grass patches represent a normal encounter, red represent a Poké Radar-exclusive encounter, and blue represents a shiny encounter.
Guides[]

Trivia[]
Prior to 1.02, the Poké Radar did not increase chances for a Pokémon to have its hidden ability, as hidden abilities were not implemented yet.
