What's the thing May uses to count down the days till the Meteor comes in pokemon Movie?

She buys it at a store somewhere and uses it too cont down the days, whats it called and how do you make it?

I think you are talking about the Jirachi movie, May bought that in a store in the circus place where there's all kind of fun and shows. It's a wishing charm, the shop keeper who sold it to her tell her to pray and fold 1 piece of it each night for seven nights (till the night the meteor vanishes) since You need to fold it seven times to complete it and the meteor comes only once in one thousand years and lasts for seven days, if she does complete the charm, according to the shop keeper on the seventh day her wishes will PROBABLY come true. But even so she didn't complete it since she forgot to do it on the last night, bit of a shame.

If you want to make it, I think this is how you do it
1. cut a piece of paper in to a forteen sided star
2. on the back of each triangle, draw one star on 1 triangle, two stars on another, up to sven stars
3. then fold one triangle to the middle each night depending on the number and on the seventh day you should be left with a circle.

Hope this helped, I know the instructions sounds kind of crappy because I'm watching the movie and telling you at the same time, still it should know kind of like the one in the movie.
