Todd has been summoned by Professor Oak to Pokémon Island in order to help Oak with a report on the island's Pokémon. Oak has just finished a report and needs pictures to accompany his findings. Riding in the Zero-One, Todd must travel around the island and get the pictures Professor Oak needs.
Gameplay
Starting a Professor Oak's research center, players may choose the course they want to play. The game is like a rail shooter, with the player unable to change their path.They can take up to 60 pictures on each level. After they finish, Professor Oak rates the player's pictures based on position, posing, clarity, and whether other Pokémon are in the shoot.
The game has only seven levels all together. However, some of them are locked away until the player uses the right item to open up the new level. Each one has a different environment and different Pokémon. The game contains 63 different types of Pokémon.
Legacy
The Zero-One appeared as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Rereleases
- Pokémon Snap has been announced for release over the Wii's Virtual Console in December 2007. The game will be modified to utilize some of the Wii's features, as photos taken in the game can be sent to friends over the Wii's message board.
