In the core series

Pokémon Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal

Pokémon Yellow,Gold, Silver, andCrystal are compatible with theGame Boy Printer accessory. By talking to a character labeled as a "photographer," players are able to print out stats of any Pokémon in their party.

In Pokémon Yellow, it is mentioned that theKanto Pokémon Fan Club Chairman has taken an interest in photography.

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen

At theRocket Game Corner inCeladon City, there is a "Pokémon Printer" where a player may have their currentparty photographed and displayed on the back of theTrainer Card for a fee of$50. The photos can be taken in four different colors: normal, black, pink, or sepia.

Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum

The player can get a picture of their Pokémon taken withAccessories on inJubilife City at theJubilife TV building. This is also done when a player's Pokémon wins aPokémon Super Contest, but only when therank of thatcategory has not already been achieved.

InPokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, there are many areas inJohto andKanto where players may take photos of themselves and theirpartner Pokémon, although the player will often be able to photograph themselves with their entire party. These photos are recorded in a Photo Album, which stores up to 36 photos in thePC.

After the player arrives inGoldenrod City, a man namedCameron will periodically be found in bothregions at varying times. He will take pictures of the player's party and the surrounding area. Cameron's house is inCianwood City, which has an automatic camera beside it for use at all times; however, Cameron cannot be found here.

Pokémon X and Y

InPokémon X and Y, players can find multiple black signs with white camera icons on them calledPhoto Spots. Upon examining them, the player can summonPhil the Photo Guy, who will offer to take their picture. The camera takes advantage of theNintendo 3DS's gyroscope controls, and its zoom, shutter, and natural light can be adjusted. Upon taking a picture, it will be saved on the Nintendo 3DS Camera, where it can be viewed on the 3DS's photo album. The player could also upload their latest photo to thePokémon Global Link via Game Sync, until the Global Link was shut down in 2020.

Locations of Photo Spots

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

InPokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, players may take pictures of their Pokémon throughout aPokémon Contest Spectacular. The most recent photo taken can be saved onto theNintendo 3DS's SD card, and if saved, the photo is displayed on the ground floor of theContest Hall. During theTalent Round of a Pokémon Contest, the 3DS camera can be used to provide a real-life background. This option can be turned on or off by speaking to a man in the Contest Hall who describes this special effect as projecting a "hologram" through the entire hall.

If the player wins aMaster Rank Pokémon Contest, a photo of their winning Pokémon taken during theIntroduction Round will be automatically displayed on the second floor of the Contest Hall. Only the most recent winner is displayed, with one photo spot available for eachContest condition stat. If the player won with at least 800 points, the same photos are displayed on the second level ofLilycove Museum. Unlike the Contest Hall, in the museum, the last three winners are shown for each Contest condition stat.

Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

Main article:Rotom Pokédex → Poké Finder

InPokémon Sun and Moon andPokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, players may take pictures of Pokémon using thePoké Finder (Japanese: ポケファインダー Poké Finder) function of the Rotom Pokédex, in various locations throughout theAlola region. The icon on the player's bottom screen will turn into that of a camera in locations where photographs may be taken. It can be activated by pressing the R button or tapping the camera icon in those select locations. Pictures are then evaluated with a "Thumbs-Up" score. As the player racks up their total "Thumbs-Up" score, more features are unlocked, such as the ability to zoom.

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

Main article:Alola Photo Club

Found inHau'oli City andKonikoni City, the Alola Photo Club allows players to take photos with the Pokémon in their party. These photos can then be edited with stickers, posted to thePokémon Global Link, or saved to the 3DS's SD card.

The player also has the option of doing an impromptu photo shoot after a Pokémon in their partyevolves.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Main article:Jubilife Village → Photography studio

A photograph taken withZisu and the player

A photography studio run by Dagero is located inJubilife Village. It becomes available to the player once they completeMission 2: The Galaxy Team's Entry Trial.

The player can take pictures either alone or with one of their Pokémon. Members of theGalaxy Team,Diamond Clan, orPearl Clan may visit the studio and ask to take photos with the player. Pose, expression, lens filters, background and how the Pokémon is acting may be freely changed by the player, although characters and their Pokémon have preset poses and actions, respectively. The pictures are taken with the screenshot function of theNintendo Switch, and are therefore stored in the system memory.

After completing requests for Dagero, the player gets an expanded pool of backdrops and lens filters to use.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Main article:Rotom Phone → Camera app

InPokémon Scarlet and Violet, players can use the Rotom Phone's camera app to take selfies, pose, and interact with others in multiplayer. Additional photo customization options such as filters, frames, and gestures can be unlocked through exploration and progression.

Various upgrades can be unlocked during the DLC, and key story moments are commemorated with special group selfies alongside characters the player meets and befriends along the way. InThe Teal Mask, the player obtains theRoto-Stick, which expands the camera's field of view during selfies. InThe Indigo Disk, there's a dedicatedPhotography Room in theLeague Club at theBlueberry Academy where the player can unlock upgrades, specialcamera effects, and other improvements.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A

InPokémon Legends: Z-A, the Rotom Phone's camera app returns, and functions mostly the same as it did in Scarlet and Violet. However, the Rotom Phone is no longer physically held by the player while taking photos, allowing for more dynamic angles than before.

Additionally, the option to customize photos with frames or touch-ups is replaced with the ability to move around while using the camera in first person view, and a new third person perspective can be triggered by pressing the Y button. The player's Pokémon cannot take damage while in third person, and effects such asPerish Song or beingbadly poisoned will not increment (though the animations for this happening will still occur). Third person is the only perspective available when taking aprofile picture for theZ-A Royale.

In the side series

Pokémon Stadium

InPokémon Stadium, there is a "Gallery" mode where players can take photographs of their Pokémon. A player may photograph Pokémon from theirGeneration I Game Boy game (using theTransfer Pak) or they may photograph the game'srental Pokémon. The controls are identical to that of Pokémon Snap, but without the extra items such as thePester Balls. Photos taken in Gallery Mode could be printed on stickers at the Pokémon Snap Sticker Stations.

Gallery mode did not exist in the Japanese version of this game (which was known as Pokémon Stadium 2). Instead, two additional battle tournaments are present.

My Pokémon Ranch

InMy Pokémon Ranch, players are able to take photos of their Pokémon during any of the random ranch events (such as the Clock and the Totem Pole) or when they are playing with any of the toys that a player may buy for their Pokémon. The quality of the photo can be increased with the "Focus Lock" function.

In spin-off games

Pokémon Snap series

InPokémon Snap and its sequelNew Pokémon Snap, the entire game is based around the concept of photography.

In Pokémon Snap, the player (asTodd Snap) must take the best possible photographs of the 63 Pokémon findable onPokémon Island forProfessor Oak'sPokémon Report. The player controls the camera from a first-person perspective. To view through the camera lens, the player must hold the "Z" button. The shutter button is operated with the "A" button. In the game, the player can receive tools to aid their picture-taking such asPokémon food,Pester Balls, and thePoké Flute.

For a period of time after the release of Pokémon Snap,Pokémon Snap Sticker Stations were available atBlockbuster Video stores, which allowed a player to print out their photos on stickers for $3. These Sticker Stations were available in the United States and Canada. In theWii Virtual Console version, players can post them to the Wii's Address book.

InNew Pokémon Snap, the player is invited to take photos in theLental region to conduct a survey of theIllumina phenomenon.

Super Smash Bros. series

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Players ofSuper Smash Bros. Melee are able to take pictures of certain battle scenes in Camera Mode. Photos take up 4-12 blocks from theGameCube memory card. Camera Mode requires a controller inserted in port 4, which is used to take a photo of the battle.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Players ofSuper Smash Bros. Brawl may also to take pictures of certain battle scenes if the game is paused. Photographs typically take 1 block of memory from either theWii's memory or from the SD Card memory. Photos taken in Brawl can be transferred to a personal computer and converted to JPEGs using various programs or websites available online. The players can also take pictures of stages they created. However, because the player cannot pause during online multiplayer, the player cannot take photos in that mode.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS onwards

InSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, as well asSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate forNintendo Switch, players can take pictures in a manner similar to Brawl. However, the photos, which are saved to the console's SD card, are not encrypted, and do not require third party programs to share. Although, the player cannot pause during online multiplayer, and, therefore, cannot take pictures.

PokéPark series

PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure

A photograph ofMeowth taken in-game from first person perspective

PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure gives the player the ability to take pictures from the game similar to previous Wii and WiiWare games.

After Pikachu has metMisdreavus in theMeeting Place, she gives them a camera with which to photos on. Each film roll can hold up to 30 pictures. These 30 pictures can be sent to an SD card purchased separately by the player so that they may put the pictures on their computer as well as free up a new film for 30 new pictures.

Photos can be taken from a third-person perspective or from first-person Pikachu's view.

PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond

A photograph ofRaichu andMeowth taken in-game from first person perspective

PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond has a similar photography feature to the one in the first game. As in the first game,Misdreavus, found inCove Town explains the basics of taking photos. However, the player has the ability to take photos by simply pressing the - button from the moment whenPikachu receives the PokéPark Pad fromPiplup. Photos can be taken from a third-person perspective or from first-person view of the player (the latter can be switched to by pressing B). In PokéPark 2, the player may store significantly more photos on the Wii's memory: up to 72 photos may be stored without the use of an SD card.

Pokémon GO

InPokémon GO, players may take pictures of Pokémon when they are encountered them in the wild, or once they are caught and kept in the player's storage. Initially, players were only able to take pictures of Pokémon encountered in the wild. With this feature, players may choose to take the photographs with or without the AR mode activated. When a photograph has been taken, the pictures will be saved on their mobile devices' internal storage or externalmemory card.

GO Snapshot is a feature introduced on February 25, 2019, which enabled players to take photos of their Pokémon in storage. This feature can be accessed through the camera icon on the individual Pokémon's status screen, or by accessing the camera through the items list, and photos can be taken with or without AR+ mode activated. Without AR+, the Pokémon will be remain fixed in position facing forward in the center of the screen, while AR+ enables the player to keep the position of the Pokémon fixed relative to its background and therefore players can move around the Pokémon to obtain a greater variety of photos. Once the photos are taken, the player will be able to review the photos taken, and can directly share their photos to social media. The photos will also be saved automatically to the devices' internal storage or external memory card.

Occasionally, the photo will be intercepted by aSmeargle which will appear in front of the photo taken. Smeargle will only appear in the first few images taken per session, and the image with and without the photobomb will be saved. Once this happens, a wild Smeargle will appear around the player, and is currently the only method of obtaining Smeargle. Smeargle's moveset will be the identical to the moveset of the Pokémon of which the photo was taken.

OnApril Fools' Day until April 3, 2019, Smeargle was replaced withAsh or aPikachu wearing Ash's hat as the photobomb character. A wild Pikachu wearing Ash's hat would spawn near the player after this had occurred.

DuringPokémon Day 2020 event, Smeargle is replaced withPikachutwo andAsh's Pikachu as the photobomb characters. A wild Pikachutwo spawns near the player after this had occurred.

OnCommunity Days since May 24, 2020, the Pokémon featured on the Community Day will replace Smeargle in photobombs. Up to 5 photobomb encounters with said Pokémon can be had.

These surprise encounters enable players to earn theCameraman medal depending on the number of photobombs they have had.

Pokémon Masters EX

Main article:Photo creator

InPokémon Masters EX, the photo creator feature allows players to take photos of Trainers with a customizable variety of poses, backgrounds, frames, and effects to choose from. These photos can be featured on the player'sprofile for others to view.
