Yes, it works for all Pokemon except for those that already have perfect ivs.

There's a shiny charm when you complete Alolan Pokedex.
Adrenaline Orb doesn't increase the Call Rate, but increase the chance to call for an ally (like remaining HP).
I never tried chaining without Adrenaline Orb since it's cheap and easy to get.
However, even at 1 HP + Adrenaline Orb, a Pokémon with a Call Rate of 0 will never call for allies.
For those who are interested, I made some teams for different ally chaining situations (with/without Pokebank, if you want to use Synchronize or check the ability) : http://pastebin.com/28mMAJhh
The paste also recalls all the current known information about SOS calls. (maybe not in the best way)
My tests with a Kadabra who lost Synchronize with Roleplay were positive. (the allies are still affected by Synchronize even though Kadabra changed abilities)
However, my Kadabra was also in first party slot, so I am redoing tests to be sure that the only important factor is to have a Synchronizer on the field.
This means that even without Pokebank, you can use Kadabra to get Synchronize and to check the ability of allies (even though you may have hard times against strong Pokémon since Kadabra doesn't learn Baton Pass).
Else, you can use Espeon/Umbreon for Synchronize and just check the ability of a few Pokémon once the chain is long enough with a Smeargle who has Entrainment.
It is also unfortunate but Minior and Wimpod can't be chained, as their Call Rate is 0.
Important questions I still haven't found an answer to:
1. Have there been any changes to the effectiveness of the existing Poké Balls?
2. What is the rate of a Beast Ball on an Ultra Beast and on ordinary Pokémon, respectively?
3. Are other balls reduced in power on Ultra Beasts or completely ineffective?

My Net Ball Pheromosa says regular Balls can still work. Beast Balls are just the most effective option.
Do we know how Pokebank works yet? I saw somewhere that there isn't backwards compatibility between gen 6 and 7 as expected, so does this mean everything in my bank will be flagged for gen 7 at a certain point?
it will only be marked as gen 7 when you put them into a gen 7 game. After that point, they will only be able to go into gen 7 games.
That quote was not from me.
How many Pokemon have zero call rates? Can they be listed?
considering the pokemon you want to catch doesn't have any tricky set or a low catch rate and it always calls his same species, could you just use a high level kadabra tanking and killing allies switching the objetive and feeding it revives until somethingh with high potential comes up?
Just Wimpod/Minior iirc. TFW the mon you're most interested in is gunna be hell to grind to perfection. GF y :[.
It's not that big of a problem. Get an Everstone, get a male with the nature you want, and then it's done.
And now that I think of it... is Wimpod supposed to be Pokemon's equivalent of the Metal Slime? Not useful, difficult to catch... it only lacks money or experience bonuses.
I haven't read the past 10 or so pages so sorry if this is not new

Seems like nintendo is punishing the people who played the game that was leaked.

Only the ones stupid enough to go online. Still don't know what those people were THINKING....
But Minior is genderless. :(
... why did Game Freak make Minior logically genderless unlike other cases? >.<
The same post clearly lists Salamence and Snorlax, so there must be more than just that.
Basically, use the list and search for a Pokémon. If it isn't here, it has a call rate of 0.
As for wild Pokémon, it seems that only Wimpod and Minior have a Call Rate of 0.
For the Pokémon that are SOS Call-exclusive, some have a non-zero Call Rate, and some don't.
But in general, you don't really want to change the species of the Pokémon calling for allies.
First, these species usually have a lower Call Rate (ex : Magmar has a lower call rate than Magby)
Second, there seem to be an interaction with the chance of a successful SOS call and SOS slots. (I made a chain of Tauros then switched to an ally Miltank. The Miltank called 7-8 times for help before something came, and the next ally was another Miltank).
This interaction may be interesting for Pokémon that are present in multiple SOS Slots (the success chance of a SOS call may be increased), we don't know yet.
I continued testing for Synchronize effects and a strange result came out :
If you put a Synchronize Pokémon on the field, and make him lose Synchronize (with Roleplay in my case), then the next allies generated will be affected by Synchronize.
However, the nature that the allies will have 50% of the time is the nature of the Pokémon that initially was in your first party slot (a Modest Marowak in my case), and not the nature from the Pokémon on the field (a Hasty Kadabra).
When my Kadabra was in first party slot that I saw an occurence of many Hasty Pokémon.
When I tested without Marowak in first party slot instead, it took me some time to notice that I was getting a lot of Modest Pokémon. (I was checking 3 Pokémon then soft-resetting).
This non-intended behaviour is really good news, because this mean that you only need one Synchronizer for all the natures.
You just have to change the Pokémon in the first party slot to a Pokémon who has the nature you want, and its nature will be used when Synchronize activates on ally summons.
I will do another test with a KO Pokémon in first party slot and without using Roleplay to see if this works the same way.

Yup, the bug SOS Call chains and Synchronized is now confirmed.
When you send a Pokémon with Synchronize on the field and chain for allies, the allies will be affected by Synchronize.
However, the nature that they will have 50% of the time is the nature of the first party Pokémon.
The first party Pokémon can be ko, it still works. (I have a Naughty KO Munchlax and the 4 Pokémon I caught were all Naughty).
The Synchronizer can lose its ability with Roleplay/Skill Swap, it still works.
