Chaining is a nice term. However Tomiki Shihan and Hideo Ohba Shihan referred to Chaining as "transitioning" from 1 technique to another without hesitation applying what technique(s) presented themselves. We do a lot of "backhand" randori which requires a person to be able to transition from 1 technique to another without hesitation. Kihon No Kata (17 basic moves) and the 10 counters are a classic to transitioning. The Koryu dai san kata and Koryu dai ni katas are great also for transitioning.
