How to Take Tepig 1 Star Photo

Caption Name Nice and calm

Simple Pose

This is the standard photo of Tepig. Simply take a photo of the Pokemon without interacting with it to obtain its 1 Star photo. We recommend starting Badlands (Night) at Research Level 1 as Tepig can be found a the beginning of the course.

How to Take Tepig 2 Star Photo

Caption Name Noteworthy behavior?

Alongside Torchic

Start Badlands (Night) at Research Level 1. Proceed through the course until you reach the area with the holes in the canyon.

Run a scan and look for Torchic and take a photo of it. Look for Tepig and take its photo as well. As you reach the exit point, look to your left to find Tepig and Torchic together. Take a photo of the two Pokemon together to obtain Tepig's 2 Star photo.

How to Take Tepig 3 Star Photo

Caption Name You don't see this every day

Feed It with a Fluffruit

To obtain Tepig's 3 Star photo, you need to feed it with a Fluffruit and wait for the Pokemon to cook the fruit.

How to Take Tepig 4 Star Photo

Caption Name A bit unusual!

Using Ember

1
Start Badlands (Night) at Research Level 2. Throw an Illumina Orb at the digging Digletts at the beginning of the course. Once at least three Digletts are near the boulder, light up the Crystabloom. Run a scan to take the alternate route.
2
As you go through the alternate route, you will see a Tepig sleeping beside Rockruff, Torchic, and Shinx. Hit Tepig with a Fluffruit to wake it up.
3
Once Tepig is awake, a Mandibuzz will fly in and try to scare the four Pokemon. Throw an Illumina Orb at Tepig and it will use Ember against the Mandibuzz. Take a photo of Tepig using the move to obtain its 4 Star Diamond Photo.

Tepig 4 is at the end by poison pits. Level 3 map. Throw fluffruit at the furthest Koffing to make it go toward the Kangaskan and Tepig by the crater. Throw fluffruit at Kangaskan to move it closer to Tepig/Koffing. Throw Illumina orb at Koffing to make it poison Tepig. Kangaskan will pick up Tepig and put in its pouch for 4* photo
