Yesterday, I was breeding for my Home living dex, and I needed one egg per line for 30 evolutionary lines. I made an egg power three sandwiches, and it still took five full minutes for Salamence and Ditto to make one egg.
I completed the 3 Pokedexes to get the Charm, and when I applied it, I got 40 eggs, which hatched faster.
If you are wondering what the oval Charm does in Pokémon, I will help you answer this question since I have been a Pokémon enthusiast for years.
How good is the Oval Charm?
👊Oval Charm is a powerful item used to increase the chances of finding an egg at the Pokémon Nursery or Pokémon Daycare.
Egg production is crucial when you are searching for a shiny Pokémon to complete your Pokedex or breeding up a contender with the best stats.
It does not need to be used or held to benefit from its use, it is just a passive buff to be applied when approaching a nursery.
However, it only increases the chance of an appearing if the eggs appear normally, as follows.

Where do I get the Oval Charm sword?
💪You can pick the Oval Charm by first becoming a champion of Galar after beating the entirety of the Pokémon game.
Then, go to the building next to the Pokémon Center in Circhester, where you will find several NPCs based on Game Freak developers.
Look for a police officer in a hotel room who is the Shigeki Morimoto stand-in. Morimoto has a team of level 65 Pokémon and is the man who created the Pokémon battle system.
The battle will be challenging, but once you topple him, he will give you the Oval Charm that you can use to make your breeding system more efficient.
Does the Oval Charm make eggs hatch faster?
Yes, the Oval Charm makes eggs hatch faster in the game. It is very effective in speeding up the process of getting eggs in the nursery and hatching them as well as you go.
Is the Oval Charm worth it?
💯Oval Charm is worth it when you are trying to get eggs. You can spend hours filling the Pokedex but save time when breeding.
As mentioned earlier, you don’t have to use it to be effective, like in walking a certain number of steps to hatch an egg.
The other ways to hatch an egg faster include riding your bike up and down Route 210 and Route 209, Solaceon Town. The advantage of this method is that you will not encounter a wild Pokémon as with Oval Charm.
To Conquer Morimoto who has powerful moves such as Giga Impact and Superpower to get the oval Charm, is worth it.
It is also completely passive like the other available Charms in the game, and you do not need to turn it on.
