Pokémon: Every Gen 1 Game Ranked

6. Pokémon Snap

With how varied and interesting every Pokémon species is, the idea of observing them in their natural habitat sounds way more appealing than just making them fight each other.

If the first thing you think of when you see a living creature made entirely of magnets is "I wonder how well it can beat up other monsters" you need help.

Let's just look at the living creature made entirely of magnets.

It's that idea of just watching and learning about each Pokémon that makes Pokémon Snap so compelling. It's relaxing just taking pictures of the creatures in their natural habitat and doing some lite puzzle-solving to work out how to get the best snaps.

And those puzzles are great, figuring out how to evolve a Magikarp into a Gyarados was amazing, getting those Jigglypuff to sing for you was fun, and the Pokémon Signs added a level of mystery to the experience and were a joy to figure out

Yeah, it would be nice if the game contained all original 151 'mons but Pokémon Snap still works as a nice little experience that you can 100% in a couple of hours.

Has a degree in video game development. Is kinda addicted to video games, television, and films. Probably needs some help, to be honest.
