Flying from the Tree

At the beginning of the course, look for the Pikipek pecking the tree on the right side. Once you get closer to Pikipek, hit it with a Fluffruit and take a close-up shot while it is flying away from the tree to achieve 1 Star Diamond.

A Flying Pikipek

In the first few minutes of the course, look straight ahead until you find a bunch of Pikipek on the tree branches. All Pikipek will fly as you get nearer.

Before they fly, use the zoom feature and focus on the Pikipek above Arbok. Place the camera a little bit to the left and take a big close-up shot of Pikipek to achieve 2 Star Diamond.

Wood Pecking

Taking a 3 Star photo of Pikipek is similar to 1 Star. All you need to do is to throw an Illumina Orb at it and take a close-up shot while it is pecking the tree to achieve 3 Star Diamond.

Fruit Delivery

For a 4 Star photo of Pikipek, go to Jungle (Day) research-level 3. While passing through the bridge, use the Scan mode to find the location of the Crystabloom. While looking for the Crystabloom, make sure to Zoom in on your camera to slow down the Neo-One.

Once found, light the Crystabloom and look behind you. Pikipek will then grab a piece of fruit and will fly in front of you. Take a close-up shot of Pikipek to achieve 4 Star Diamond.

you can also get a 4 star on the night route, the same way you get the Toucannon 4 star (light up crystabloom in tree x3)
