214: Xerneas

Xerneas

Xerneas Star Guide / Conditions:

1 Star: Most basic photo of this Pokémon possible

2 Star: At the Aurus Island Illumina Spot in Research Level 2, go to the second room that Xerneas appears in; hit the flying orb with an Illumina Obr to make it actually appear; go left to see two sleeping Houndoom, and hit them with Fluffruit to wake them up; meanwhile, Xerneas can be seen in the background, where you can hit it with an Illumina Orb and take a photo

3 Star: At the Aurus Island Illumina Spot in Research Level 2, go to the second room that Xerneas appears in; hit the flying orb with an Illumina Obr to make it actually appear; go left to see two sleeping Houndoom, and hit them with Fluffruit to wake them up; meanwhile, Xerneas can be seen in the background, where you can hit it with an Illumina Orb and take a photo

4 Star: Once the Houndoom are awake, use Fluffruit to guide them towards each other. Once they’re together, scan a few times until they proceed to approach Xerneas. At this point, Xerneas should then use Geomancy, which is your cue to take photos. I recommend using Burst Mode here to capture multiple frames of this animation. The first time I did this, I submitted a photo I swear was a 4-star, but it turned out to be a 2-star. So if you’re submitting one toward the beginning or end of the animation, double-check the star count to be sure. As long as you get one during this animation though, you should have the 4-star Xerneas photo on lockdown.
