Get two Electrodes in your picture


Sent in by Beth

1. Go to Tunnel. (obviously)
2. Boost past the first Electrode that is rolling past
you. (This Electrode is of no use to you in any way whatsoever.)
3. Now for the important part. Watch the second Electrode
that is getting chased by 'buzz. When Electrode starts to turn
back around to go inside, boost up to be right behind him.
Electrode should now be in front of you, and 'buzz should be behind you.
Use your C-buttons to quickly look behind yourself, than hit 'buzz wit
a pester to keep him from coming too close. (Timing is important in this step)
4. Right after you pass the third Electrode that is just
sitting there hit him with a pester to make him blow at the same as Electrode #2.
5. Take a lot of pictures. Size matters here for both Pokemon
so pick a picture with both Pokemon having large size.

Poliwags tip


Sent in by Tips, Codes, Hints, Cheats, and Secrets Hunter

In the River level there are three Poliwags sitting up on a ledge at the very
beginning. To get all of those Poliwags in one shot is quite a task but it can
be done. You first throw a pest ball at the very first Poliwag. Do not hit it!
If you do it will faint and you won't have enough time to take the shot. Throw
the pest ball next to the Poliwag making him run to his partner further up.
Repeat the same process you did for the first one. The two Poliwags should run
up to the third Poliwag at the very to. Now throw a pester ball next to the
trio of Poliwags and they should come racing down at you. If you don't get a
good shot the first time don't get discouraged because it takes a lot of
practice to get a great shot of them.

Koffings tip


Sent in by Tips, Codes, Hints, Cheats, and Secrets Hunter

In the Cave level there are several Koffings. If you use your Dash Engine you
can catch up to one and play your Poke Flute to it. The first song, he spits
smoke everywhere and then spins around. The second song, he shoots out a ring
of smoke and this song is the most valuable! The third song, he shoots out two
puffs of smoke from the top of him and then makes a ring of smoke around him
like the second song.

Dittos tip


Sent in by Tips, Codes, Hints, Cheats, and Secrets Hunter

On the Cave level, there are three Dittos that are disguised as Bulbasaurs. To
get them in a "squad" knock all them out of their false genetic duplications by
hitting each one with a Pestball or an Apple. Now get them all together in one
big group by throwing an apple near them. When they all get together throw an
Apple at one of the side Dittos and try to hit all three Dittos with the same
apple. Then all the Dittos should grow in size and that is when you should take
the shot.

Re: Pokemon Snap

Bulbasaurs tip


Sent in by Tips, Codes, Hints, Cheats, and Secrets Hunter

On the river level, throw an apple in front of a small log on the left side and
a Bulbasuar will appear. Play your Pokeflute and throw a pester ball at Bublasaur.
While it is in the air, quickly look up and throw another pester ball
so it won't come down very fast. The Bulbasaur will jump on top of the log and
play the 2nd song on the Pokeflute and he will stand up like an Ivysaur but NOT
evolve into an Iysaur, the Bulbasaur will say Bulba-SaUrRR and then two other
Bulbasaurs ll quickly appear and start roaring at you for Pokemon food. Throw an
apple and while the Pokemon food is in the air, play your Pokeflute and they
will start singing Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur in Jigglypuff's sing attack
tune, the take a picture. Then go to where you get swift Pikachu and instead of
Pikachu, it will appear as a Bulbasaur and you throw a pester ball and it will
run behind the logs (where Swift Pikachu comes really) and a lot of Bulbasaurs
come out, this is just like the Charmanders and them dancing. You can play the
Pokeflute and the Bulbasaurs will dance this earns you a perfect score, a
perfect Bulbasaur!!

Re: Pokemon Snap

Special shots in each level


Sent in by Usagi

Tunnel-- Take a couple of pictures of the first Pikachu that comes along.
If you keep watching it, it will get on top of an electrode. This special
picture (Called Pikachu on ball) has a worth of 600, not counting size,
pose, technique.

Volcano-- Right past the Moltres egg there are two magmars. Throw one
apple between them, and they will start fighting. The fighting magmar
picture is worth 800, not counting size, pose, technique, multiple pokemon.

River-- Close to the end, there's a Pikachu on a tree. Throw a pester ball
at it, and it will start zooming around. Take a picture quickly, it's over
fast! Speed Pikachu has a worth of 600, not counting size, pose, technique.

Cave-- This one's a little tricky. You must save at least one of the
Jigglypuff from Koffing... there are three, and if you get all of them
you'll have more points later. After you pass the articuno egg, you see
Jigglypuff on a pinkish rock... only if you saved it. It's singing. Take a
couple of pictures of it, and make sure it's happy... or else it won't
count. Try to get the other jigglypuffs in there. Singing Jigglypuff is
worth 600, not counting size, pose, technique, and multiple pokemon.

Valley-- On the left side of the screen, around the middle of the course,
there will be three graveler. Play the pokeflute, and they'll start
dancing. Take a couple of pictures, and make sure all three of them are
in it. Also, the target shouldn't be showing its back. The Gravelar Dance
is worth 600, again, not counting size, pose, technique, and multiple pokemon.

Rainbow-- any picture of mew has an immediate value of 2500 points.
The Rare Mew pictures are hard to get, because it's either in its forcefield
that glows whenever you try to take a picture, or, if you managed to
remove the shield, it's running after it. I would advise always using the
R button when trying to take a picture of it. To get rid of the shield, hit
it with pester balls. After you remove the second shield, one hit will get
rid of it the next time.

Pokemon signs


Sent in by Usagi

When you activate the secret switch in Valley, Prof. Oak will tell you
about the pokemon signs. After that, revisit each course and find the signs.

Beach: On the left, after the Pikachu, you'll see a strange formation of
rocks. If you take a picture at an angle, you'll see the shape of kingler.

Tunnel: After zapdos uses it's electric attack on the power thingy (errmm...),
a lamp will light up after the two electabuzzes. Look at the shadow, it's a
pinsir. Snap a picture!

Volcano: Throw a pester ball into the first fire pit, and take a picture of
the smoke. It'll form into a koffing.

River: When the vileplume starts dancing, take a picture of the "tree"
behind it-- it's shaped like a cubone.

Cave: If you look to the right of the weepinbell (or victreebel if you
evolved it) , you'll see some strange glowing objects. Take a picture,
when it develops, you'll see a Mewtwo.

Valley: Very hard to miss. First thing you see are some mountains shaped
like Dugtrio. Easy picture.

to have it use a Thundershock attack for a better photograph. Throw a
Pester Ball at the Zubat that is carrying Pikachu in the Cave level.

where Articuno is found. Release Articuno with
the Poke Flute. Then when approaching the end of the level, look behind
to see Pikachu riding on Articuno. Throw apples towards the Surf Board
in the Beach level immediately after seeing Pikachu to have it pose on
the board, including backflips. After flushing Scyther out in the Beach
level, two Pikachu will dash out and jump up on stumps. Play the Poke
Flute and they will start zapping. The photo of Pikachu on a stump with
a Thundershock is worth a lot of extra points.

Porygon - Go past Vileplume's location in River level. Pass the Metapods, then
look right when you see Psyduck near a lot of logs. Hit the wood-appearing
objects that are flying around with a Pester Ball and Porygon will appear.
