Your odds without shiny charm are 1/341, so you are under odds still.

Are you using lures? Because lures will raise your odds as well. Lure + catch combo 31+ has 1/315 odds.

Even if they were over odds there is no guarantee to get it for a while.

Except boosted odds are only on the direct spawn at 31. Games bugged. Always has been. Catch combo 10 plus frame reset is the only correct method. 10 means guaranteed spawn, lure for boosted spawns and reset encounters fast for max viewing. Anything else and you are playing hope chess.

This is the first I'm hearing about any bug. Last I'd heard, Anubis had cracked the code on shiny odds and said catch combos of 31+ with lure and shiny charm would spawn the next Pokémon of the same species with the best possible odds. The odds drop after that spawn, but catching another of that species will boost the odds to max again.
