Complete the National Pokedex First

It is only possible to obtain the Shiny Charm after seeing all Pokemon found in the National Pokedex (National Mode). This is no easy feat since the National Pokedex itself can only be unlocked after you have encountered all Pokemon in the Sinnoh Pokedex.  After doing so, talk to Professor Rowan at Pal Park who will give you the Poke Radar. Professor Oak will also show up, giving you the National Pokedex.
