How To Get Shiny Pokémon, Shiny Charm And Shiny Odds In Arceus

How to get the Shiny Charm in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

The Shiny Charm will increase your chances of finding shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus and, to get it, you need to reach Research Level 10 for every Pokémon in the Hisui Pokédex.

When an entry reaches Research Level 10, it receives a Poké Ball stamp next to its name in the Pokédex, so it's easy to figure out which entries you need to work.

It's also important to remember that you don't need to have any perfect Pokédex entries - where you've completed all of the available Research Tasks for a Pokémon - to receive the Shiny Charm.

Having a perfect Pokédex entry for a Pokémon will, however, increase that specific creature's shiny rate, so, if there's a particular shiny you're after, it's a good idea to fully complete their entry.

After you've obtained Research Level 10, talk to Professor Laventon in whichever biome you're currently in. He will realise that the Pokédex is finally complete and take you back to the Galactic Headquarters in Jubilife Village.

Here, after watching a cutscene, you'll receive the Shiny Charm. If, however, Laventon hasn't given you the other two starter Pokémon from Legends: Arceus yet, you'll have a short cutscene where he does so first.

The charm itself can then be found in the Key Items section of your inventory, but there's no need to equip it as you'll automatically receive the bonus it supplies from now on!

Our Pokémon Legends Arceus walkthrough will help you pick a starter Pokémon and win the Kleavor boss fight. You’re also tasked with filling the Hisui Pokédex by obtaining new evolutions like Kleavor by evolving Scyther, Wyrdeer by evolving Stantler, Sneasler by evolving Hisui Sneasel and Overquil by evolving Hisui Qwilfish. There’s a host of new evolution methods, including ones for the Eevee evolutions. Take the time to complete Requests too, such as The Sea’s Legend, Wurmple’s Evolved! and finding the Wisp locations. Don’t forget to track down every Unown location too.
