# Summary
Professor Oak wants you to *snap* pictures of Pokémon in their natural habitat. Each level is on a train track rail system, so you have to take great photos in the moment while each Pokémon does unique actions. Points are earned by things like the Pokémon's pose, action, rarity, etc.
# Acquisition
I think it was bundle with some other garage sale games I got as a teen? I think it was with [[Pokémon Puzzle League]], [[Pilotwings 64]], and [[Superman - The New Superman Adventures|Superman 64]]?
# Memories
I didn't really play it much as a kid. A neighbor kid may have had it? My main memory with the game is actually the Blockbuster kiosk where you could take your cartridge into the store, plop it in, and then print your favorite photos out.
