Photographs in the game?

[Jerry]

My last thread about the save system lead to legendaries, which then made me ask myself.

Why not introduce photographs like in HGSS, or enable your character to take pictures (with poses, etc)? Then, you can hang some nice  pictures in your house, or 'guild' (which has not been confirmed yet).

Some pictures with the legendaries that you saw while doing quests will be inscribed in your memory.

Perhaps that will also go with the level of the trainer. The higher, the more photos (s)he can produce.

Sounds like a great idea. I wouldn't mind taking a few pictures with the females and hanging them on the wall of my house.

Except there's one thing I don't like about your idea.

No.

[Jerry]

Well anyone can have his/her views. I was thinking along the lines of; the higher your level, the bigger house, more money, can afford to buy more frames, etc...

[Nando]

  Yeah, I know, Jerry. I really like your idea though. I can see myself having a lot of fun with it. 

Oh, and I haven't officially welcomed you to PU yet, so WELCOME! 

[Jerry]

Oh, thanks!

[DarK_SouL]

i think its a great idea and can you really take photos in hg and ss im getting it soon!

oh i haven welcomed you either welcome!!!

[Jerry]

Thanks ChaosControl.

In fact, you can take some pictures in HG and SS at some specific points in the game. There's a photographer, usually witht he sprite of an old man, partly bald. When the photo is taken, you have your pokemon behind and besides you and you can check the photo any time through your PC.

sounds pretty cool, they could go directly to your pc, and then only you could see them, and if you wanted anyone else to see them youd have to pay $$$ to get them printed at the pokemon center, and itd become an item in your inventory or something like that

[Dellancher]

Great idea!  I too disagree with the idea of the higher the level, the more photos though.  I like the housing ideas though.  And also it would defiantly be cool for you to be able to pull the pics up onto your pc.  Maybe even upload them to facebook

[Jerry]

Well, if you can see the photos, you'll be able to copy the image and save it on your computer for any use... Use printscreen button on your keyboard, edit the big picture and you're done!

I added the level thingy lasly, meaning it was of least importance. It was only an idea, that sounded fair to me. You would start with maximum 5 pictures, then 10 and so on.

Well I liked the lvling idea. Just because it would motivate the player to actually lvl up their player.

Just take a screenshot and copy and paste to your hearts content 

[Jerry]

That was not the point. Putting them in the apartment was the prime point, so that your fellow members see your achievements . Nah, I think that other members might see the achievements of a particular 'guild' and make a better choice of which to join.

Great Idea Jerry, it seems pretty original.

Yes, except that it was incorporated into HG and SS, but it was cool in those games too, and i would love to see photographs in the game, and there could even be photo studios where you could dress up and get your photo taken with different backgrounds.
