You can obtain the shiny charm in Pokemon Sun and Moon after capturing all Pokemon in your Pokedex! You receive it from the game director in the GAMEFREAK building!

LOCATION OF GAMEFREAK BUILDING: The GAMEFREAK building can be found in Heahea City on Akala Island (near bottom right of map!). Head right from the Pokemon centre and it's on the second floor of the third building! 

An interesting thing to note in these games is that it's possible to unlock the shiny charm after you reach the second island technically speaking since if you haven't unlocked the other Pokedexes then the game doesn't need you to complete all the Pokedexes to get it from the director!

The shiny charm increases the odds of finding shiny Pokemon in Sun & Moon from 1 in 4096 to 1 in 1365, so a 300% increase in likelihood of running into one! You can obviously use that in this gen to hunt shiny Pokemon using the SOS method to get them even more reliably!

So this is where to find the shiny charm in Pokemon Sun and Moon and how to obtain it! How's your Pokedex completion going?
