Custom charts for pendulum

Not sure what you mean by dowsing charts when using a pendulum? Dowsing is the magick practice of finding water with a forked rod.
Dowsing charts are diagrams that are used with a pendulum where instead of Yes/No, you write many possible answers to your question. You can find some examples of you search "dowsing charts for pendulum" on Google.

I wanted to know if I should use them to get a more accurate answer to my question or do they reduce the accuracy of the pendulum.
 
Yes, in my experience, they work well. I've always asked questions about things I can easily verify, for practice. For example, the position of something, or any question about something I don't know at the moment but can easily verify without divination, just to test my ability to get truthful answers from the pendulum.

Nice username, big Pokemon fan myself.

If you have experimented with divination and found it to be accurate, you likely have developed this ability in past lives. For most people, your own mind getting in the way is a major problem.

To the original poster (and to you, if this is useful or new info):

If you have a good faculty of divination, be it developed or innate, the actual method you use matters quite little, any will get the job done if they are convenient for you.
I recommend Tarot as the best method by far if you aren't naturally good at divination, mostly because of its enormous symbolic complexity and number of associations which can help you learn, take notes, interpret and improve your intuition skills far more than a more straightforward yes/no or question/answer tool.

Besides practice, symbolic understanding, intuition and meditation (better upper Chakras would, for example, improve divination), I recommend Lord Apollo's Ritual in this matter.
Lord Apollo rules, among other Gods, the many arts of witchcraft. Whenever I got into a new practice, I went to Him in Ritual and asked for guidance, and received the right info, reading material, inspiration etc.

Lady Hecate would also likely help, depends on the individual.

Not good at divination myself, so this is as much as I can give.
 
Here's my recipe for using the pendulum.

Take a deck of cards. On a sheet of paper, draw a semicircle divided into four segments. On each segment, draw a suit. Draw a card and leave it face down. Take the pendulum and, holding it on the diagram, ask what suit the card is. Concentrate exclusively on the question until you feel the pendulum is answering correctly. If you also want to know the number, create another diagram divided by the numbers, then check the card.

At first, just asking the suit is sufficient, and it may happen that during the exercise the complete card appears in the mind's eye or in the aura of the card. This is quite rare, but it's quite satisfying when it happens. Some people do this exercise directly with the third eye; I've also tried it with the black mirror, but not enough to give advice.

In general, I seem to do better with the pendulum. However, you have to be careful because these exercises can significantly lower your vital energy. You have to understand how to integrate them with other practices. I don't know why using the black mirror makes me feel strangely sleepy. While once using the pendulum for more than half an hour morning and evening for a few weeks completely drained my vital forces.

Horary astrology is similar to tarot, and even geomancy. They're better methods than the pendulum for asking questions where you can't test the answer and where you have a strong emotional attachment. But if you're very emotionally invested, it's always easy to deceive yourself if you're divining for yourself.It's also true that these methods help you understand certain things about the mind, reality, and symbolism. I've had a strange insight into reality while practicing horary astrology.

I have to say I feel devoted to both Hecate and Apollo.

Anyway, you're a war machine on X, man.
