During a special Pokemon Presents video presentation, The Pokemon Company has revealed a brand-new Pokemon game for Nintendo Switch: New Pokemon Snap. The spin-off, which is based on the cult classic Nintendo 64 game, involves taking photos of Pokemon in various locales.

New Pokemon Snap takes you to islands with a variety of locales, including jungles and beaches, where you can "research various Pokemon in their natural habitats." The photos you take in the game will build up a Photodex, which is undoubtedly similar to the Pokedex from the main series Pokemon games. The company also says you'll be able to discover "new, never-before-seen Pokemon expressions and behaviors" by doing so.
