Play Pokemon Snap (Australia) Online

Game Overview

Pokémon Snap on the N64 is still one of the weirdest, most relaxing Pokémon spinoffs—you’re basically a wildlife photographer, but instead of lions or elephants, you’re snapping shots of Pikachu napping in flowers or a Charizard puffing smoke in a volcano. The game tosses you into these little on-rails courses where you’ve got to time your shots just right, and sometimes chuck apples or play a flute to get Pokémon to do something interesting. It’s oddly satisfying when you finally nail that perfect shot of a Squirtle mid-backflip.

The graphics are obviously dated now, but there’s something charming about how blocky the Pokémon look. And honestly, half the fun is seeing how badly you can mess up a photo—like accidentally zooming in too much and just getting a close-up of Meowth’s nose. If you ever wanted a Pokémon game where battling takes a backseat to just hanging out with them, this is it.
