HOW TO GET POKEMON TO COME OUT!!!
by Kory * back to my photo album

The hardest thing in Pokemon Snap is that a lot of Pokemon HIDE. Or they turn around. Or they're too far away. So here's how I get them to come out and look at me.

I'm only putting tips on here that I tried myself and they WORKED. If I'm not sure about something, it's not on here. (Some people at school tell you stuff that isn't true. I'm not saying who.)

FIRST: THE STUFF YOU GET

Professor Oak gives you stuff as you go. I got apples first, then pester balls, then the Poke Flute. You don't have them at the start, so if you just got the game, don't worry. Keep taking pictures and he'll give them to you.

APPLES
Throw them on the ground in front of a Pokemon. Lots of Pokemon come over to eat them. Then they're close to you, so they're BIG in your picture, and big is more points.

PESTER BALLS
These bother Pokemon. If a bush or the grass or anything looks funny, throw a pester ball at it, and sometimes a Pokemon pops out!!! If you hit a Pokemon with one it gets knocked over or it gets mad. Sometimes you want it mad. Sometimes you really don't.

THE POKE FLUTE
Play it and the Pokemon around you do stuff. Some of them dance. Some of them wake up. Dancing pictures are good pictures.

COURSE BY COURSE

BEACH	Snorlax is asleep. Play the Poke Flute near him and he WAKES UP!!! That's how I got my best picture (4,050 points). Also throw apples on the sand. Lots of Pokemon come for them.
TUNNEL	It's dark, so watch for anything that moves or lights up. When you get close to the end, get ready and keep your camera pointed straight ahead. You'll see why. (ZAPDOS!!!)
VOLCANO	Charmander walk around by the lava. Throw an apple in front of one and it turns around and comes to get it, so you get its face and not its tail.
RIVER	Look on BOTH sides of the river, not just in front of you. It goes slow, so you have time. Throw apples up on the shore. And if you see something move in the bushes, throw a pester ball. (I still haven't gotten the thing in the bushes. Someday.)
CAVE	I don't have a good tip for the Cave yet!!! It's the hardest one for me. If you have one, please e-mail me.
VALLEY	So much stuff happens at the same time. My tip is to do it a bunch of times and look at a different part every time. First time, look up on the rocks. Next time, look down at the water.
THE SECRET ONE	I haven't been there yet so I have NO tips. Ha ha. When I open it I'll put them here.

THINGS THAT DON'T WORK (I TRIED THEM)

Yelling at the TV. The Pokemon can't hear you.
Sitting really close to the TV. You just get yelled at.
Taking a picture of a Pokemon's back. Professor Oak doesn't like that AT ALL.
Taking a picture when the Pokemon is way far away. It comes out like a tiny dot and you get hardly any points.
