The Shiny Charm

    In the games Pokemon Black Version 2 and Pokemon White Version 2, a new key item was introduced: The Shiny Charm.

    The Shiny Charm can only be obtained by completing the National Dex. To complete the National Dex, you must catch every non-event Pokemon in the game. The Pokemon not needed to complete the National Pokedex are Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione(Pre Gen 6), Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Keldeo, Meloetta, and Genesect.

    The Shiny Charms triples the odds of finding a shiny, making it a whopping 3/4096 chance of finding a shiny. This effect sadly does not stack with other enhancers(Masuda Method, Chain Fishing, Chaining, etc), but still makes ordeal of completing the Dex worth it. I actually completed the National Dex on Pokemon X yesterday, and I look forward to experimenting with its effects.
