Even after some updates in the DLC, Scarlet and Violet’s photo mode is a hassle. You can only take photos of your character and Pokémon through your in-game cell phone, and it’s really limiting compared to other in-game photo modes out there. Pokémon is the kind of series where great in-game photography is crucial, as every player’s experience is uniquely their own—taking and sharing photos is a great way to show how different players’ stories are. Gen 10 doesn’t need a Ghost of Tsushima or Cyberpunk 2077-level photo mode with hundreds of switches to flip and knobs to turn, but could use a mode that lets us simply and easily compose a shot.
