Take on the role of a budding Pok\u00e9mon photographer and work with the Lental region expert, Professor Mirror, and his assistant, Rita, on an ecological survey to photograph Pok\u00e9mon thriving in nature. In a new trailer released today, additional footage and details were unveiled for New Pok\u00e9mon Snap<\/strong>, including its April 30 launch date.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew Pok\u00e9mon Snap presents a fun twist on a Pok\u00e9mon adventure, with enchanting gameplay that lets players see some of their favorite Pok\u00e9mon in a different light,\u201d said Nick Chavez, Nintendo of America\u2019s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. \u201cThis new game is a fun addition to the strong lineup of Pok\u00e9mon titles available on Nintendo Switch, and we can\u2019t wait to see everyone\u2019s pictures when New Pok\u00e9mon Snap launches on April 30.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wild Pok\u00e9mon are all around and have adapted to thrive in all the various natural expanses of the Lental region. They may be seen living in groups patrolling their territory, wandering serenely on their own or even playing with other Pok\u00e9mon species. With a careful eye and a photographer\u2019s keen sense of adventure, you\u2019ll be able to spot Pok\u00e9mon lurking in all sorts of places, including secluded hideaways \u2026 and sometimes swooping down suddenly from the sky! Players will be able to interact with Pok\u00e9mon by throwing a Fluffruit, a tasty fruit found across the region, to catch their attention or watch them eat. You can even use this fruit to help draw out Pok\u00e9mon into a variety of situations to see how they react. These serendipitous opportunities present a special challenge, and catching them with your camera at the perfect moment may gain you higher scores.<\/p>\n

Professor Mirror will evaluate and score players\u2019 photos taken on their adventures. Pok\u00e9mon photography is evaluated based on the subjects\u2019 poses, how large they appear, how directly they\u2019re facing the camera and where they fall in frame. As players take more photos and fulfill research on their journey, they may see Pok\u00e9mon look and behave in entirely new ways. Players will have to take many photos and use their highest-scoring shots to fill out their Photodex, a collection of Pok\u00e9mon photographs.<\/p>\n

The untouched depths of the Lental region may sound daunting at first, but don\u2019t worry. Explorers will hop into the NEO-ONE, an auto-driving vehicle, which will steer them across various paths on each island and will help free up time to focus on snapping the perfect shots. Throughout your missions, you may even get to see Pok\u00e9mon looking and behaving differently than ever before. These special moments are memories to savor, so, luckily, you\u2019ll always have your trusty camera on hand to capture them for Pok\u00e9mon posterity.<\/p>\n

Some Pok\u00e9mon and vegetation that players may discover will appear to have a special glow. These strange occurrences are found only in the Lental region and are known as the Illumina Phenomenon. Jump into the trusty NEO-ONE and uncover the mystery behind the Illumina Phenomenon!<\/p>\n

New Pok\u00e9mon Snap<\/em> launches in stores, in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch and on Nintendo.com on April 30th at a suggested retail price of $79.99 CAD. If players want to begin snapping Pok\u00e9mon photos as soon as the game launches, pre-order is available beginning today.<\/p>\n
