Shiny Grid

Lately, shinies have been a frequent topic of conversation and we'd all like to know how to be better at it. There is a grid I've seen a few times, but never really paid attention to whether I was following it. To the extent that it posts well, it looks like this:

X 4 4 4 X 4 4 4 X
4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4
4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4
4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4
X 3 2 1 U 1 2 3 X
4 3 2 1 1 1 2 3 4
4 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 4
4 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4
X 4 4 4 X 4 4 4 X

Where:
U = you
1 = least safe
4 = most safe
X = patches you should avoid at all costs

You know what, never mind this. In my own chaining, I've found this generally isn't useful at all. Also, it's nearly impossible to keep this grid in one's head (at least for me) every time a new set of grass patches shake.
