On the Hunt for Signs

With the idea of Pokemon signs in mind, I traveled back to the beginning again. I’ve always been a very methodical person and this seems like the best way to ensure I don’t miss anything. I noticed a curious rock formation on my previous trips through the beach area that looked like a crab. Sure enough, when I focused my camera on it this time my viewfinder read ‘sign?’ My suspicions were confirmed back at Professor Oak’s lab. He said this was just the sign he’d been looking for. I sped up the Zero One several times throughout this run to capture better shots. I was able to get the same shot of Doduo I had before, only closer up this time. I also got a slightly better shot of Lapras. After the beginning of the course things started to get interesting. I woke up Snorlax with a pester ball again and maganged to get a nicely centered shot this time. Pester balls also came in handy when I threw them into some high grass on the left hand side of the track and Scyther emerged. Two Pikachu came out after Scyther and began doing flips on the two stumps after the grass. I found out that the Professor really liked this Pikachu pose, calling it “Pikachu on a Stump” and awarding extra points for the pose as well as the multiple Pikachu in the shot. So far, I have recorded 49 kinds of Pokemon for the Professor Oak’s Pokemon Report. Since he awards points for each picture, he decided that after I earn 1150 more points I will have earned access to another tool to make my picture taking easier. I know that there are a lot of Pokemon I haven’t photographed yet in the volcano so I’m going to head back there next. First on my list is Charmeleon, who I didn’t capture before he transformed into Charizard last time. I also have a sneaking suspicion that there are more Pokemon hiding in the lava around the volcano that I can use pester balls to find. And I can’t forget about the signs that are hidden somewhere in each area.
