Photography: Difference between revisions

{{game|Yellow}}, {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} are compatible with the [[Game 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. Also in Gold, Silver and Crystal, although photography isn't mentioned, there is a [[Mail]] called {{DL|Mail|Portraitmail}} that has the silhouette of the Pokémon holding it as its design.

At the [[Celadon Game Corner|Rocket Game Corner]] in [[Celadon City]], there is a "'''Pokémon Printer'''" where a player may have their current party photographed and displayed on the back of the {{ga|Trainer Card}} for a fee of {{pdollar}}50. The photos can be taken in four different colors: normal, black, pink, or sepia.

After the player arrives in [[Goldenrod City]], a man named {{jo|Cameron}} will periodically be found in both regions at varying times. He will take pictures of the player's party and the surrounding area. Cameron's house is in [[Cianwood City]], which has an automatic camera beside it for use at all times; however, Cameron cannot be found here.

If the Gym Leader is currently in the [[Fighting Dojo]], the player cannot take a picture with the Leader.

In {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, players may take pictures of Pokémon using the Poké Finder (Japanese: ポケファインダー Poké Finder) function of the Rotom Pokédex, in various locations throughout the [[Alola]] 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.

Found in [[Hau'oli City]] and [[Konikoni City]], the Alola Photo Club allows players to take [[photography|photos]] with the Pokémon in their party. These photos can then be edited with stickers, posted to the [[Pokémon Global Link]], or saved to the 3DS's SD card.

{{main|Jubilife Village#Photography studio}}

A photography studio run by Dagero is located in [[Jubilife Village]]. It becomes available to the player once they complete "[[Task#Missions|The Galaxy Team's Entry Trial]]".

The player can take pictures either alone or with one of their Pokémon. Named characters 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 the Nintendo Switch, and are therefore stored in the system memory.

The player can take photos by using their [[Rotom Phone]] and becomes available early in the games.

Photos can be taken using the front or back cameras, using the L and R buttons to rotate the camera. This function can be used to change thew player's profile picture or Trainer icon. Several filters can also be enabled for dynamic shots. The player can make numerous faces and poses while taking a selfie. Other players can also join appear in photos, in which they can make their own preset gestures that can be done at any time in the overworld. Many of these gestures can be unlocked through certain tasks and side quests. Like in Legends: Arceus, photos are saved to the system's memory or SD Card.

Both updates that came with along side the release expansions of the [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]] DLC also included several updated to the Rotom Phone and picture taking including the [[Roto-Stick]] which allowed players to take selfies further away from the camera. The update that came alongside the [[The Teal Mask]] not only included the Roto-Stick, but also three different tracks that can be played through the Rotom Phone's radio, allowing the player to take photos with certain NPCs and changing their expression to the corresponding music tracks. The Teal Mask expansion itself also included more poses and expressions that the player can unlock by accomplishing certain tasks.

[[The Indigo Disk]] had its own set of pose and facial expressions that were rewards from certain side quests, many of which are references to previous characters or games, such as [[Leon]]'s {{p|Charizard}} pose. By donating [[Blueberry Point|BP]] to the Photography Club in the [[League Club Room]], the player will unlock certain frames and special effects that can be applied to either the photo or the camera for more dynamic and appropriate shots.
