Pokémon Snap

Pokémon Snap is a non-traditional Pokémon game for the Nintendo 64.

In Pokémon Snap, the famous Pokémon Researcher, Professor Oak, is researching Pokémon on Pokémon Island, and invites Todd, a talented young photographer, to assist in his research. The only inhabitants of Pokémon Island are wild Pokémon, making it the perfect place to study Pokémon in their natural habit. Whereas a trainer may not be able to resist catching the wild Pokémon of the island, Todd's photography skills may equally aide in the professor's research to complete out him Pokémon Report.

Rather than catching and training Pokémon, the goal is to explore Pokémon Island and photograph its inhabitant Pokémon. Travel is restricted to tracks designed for the ZERO-ONE, and Todd's equipment includes his camera, apples to use as Pokémon food, Pester Balls to knock out Pester Ball with, a PokéFlute to wake sleeping Pokémon. Some of these items Todd gains further into his journey, as well as earning the Dash Engine to increase the speed of the Zero-One.

Pokémon Island is inhabited by 63 species of Pokémon.
