Photography is a game aspect that first appeared in Pokémon Snap. The concept has been used in several other games since.

Pokémon Snap

In Pokémon Snap, the entire game was based around the concept of photography. The object of this game was for the player (as Todd Snap) to take the best possible photographs of various Pokémon for points. These photos are recorded in the Pokémon Report for Professor Oak to see. The player controls the camera from a first-person perspective.

For a period of time after Snap's launch, Pokémon Snap Sticker Stations were available at Blockbuster, which would print out stickers of pictures which were taken in the game for three dollars.

In the Wii Virtual Console version, you can post them to the Wii's Address book.

Pokémon Stadium

There is a Gallery mode where you can take pictures of your Pokemon from the Generation I game in your Transfer Pak or the game's rental Pokemon. You can also print them out as stickers just like Snap.

My Pokémon Ranch

Players are able to take photos of Pokémon in this game, due to the many random ranch events (such as the Clock and the Totem Pole) and toys for the Pokémon to play with. The clarity of the image can be increased with a Focus Lock function.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Players of Super Smash Bros. Melee are able to take pictures of certain battle scenes in Camera Mode. It takes up a 4-12 blocks from the GameCube memory card.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Players of Super Smash Bros. Brawl are able to take pictures of certain battle scenes if the game is paused. It usually takes 1 block of memory from either the Wii's or the SD Card memory.

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

The concept of photography returns, though this time as a side mission. There are many areas in Johto and Kanto that allow the player to take pictures of him/herself and his/her partner although usually with the rest of the team as well. These will be recorded on a photo album (which stores up to 36 photos in the PC). There are many locations where this can be done.
