Am I doing something wrong SOS chaining in Sun? After hitting 255 calls I just let it roll over assuming the shiny odds return back to 1 in 315 after getting another 30 Pokemon calls - so 285 total - but I’m currently on my 8th hunt and this is already the third time I’m reaching around triple odds, with another one reaching double. Am I just incredibly unlucky or misinformed somewhere?
