Hey, there! Luis, here! Today marks the release of New Pokémon Snap, the long-awaited sequel to the original Pokémon Snap from back in the days of the Nintendo 64. I remember renting the original game when I was younger and getting through the majority of the game in an afternoon. That was back in the day when there were only 151 Pokémon to catch and even fewer to photograph. This new game looks to have so many more Pokémon to photograph, including some of the newer additions to the series. I figured Pokémon hype might be on the rise with this new release, so I thought it would be a good idea to bring over some Pokémon to Pathfinder Second Edition. Let’s have a look!

Seismic Toss [three-actions] Requirements Charizard is grabbing a creature; Effect Charizard flies up 40 feet, holding the creature as he does. At the height of his flight, he throws the creature toward the ground, Releasing the creature and ending the grapple. The creature falls to the ground, taking fall damage as normal plus an additional 2d8 bludgeoning damage from the force of Charizard’s toss.
These strange monsters hail from a faraway land where people and monster work in unison. The creatures vary in shape, size, and abilities ranging from electric rodents to creatures that resemble living objects. While these monsters cannot speak, beyond a specific phrase that many take to be their names, they can understand language, allowing them to work well with people.
Squirtle resembles a walking turtle. It is capable of spraying a seemingly endless amount of water from its mouth to push its foes away. Ivysaur appears to be a small dinosaur living a symbiotic relationship with the plant on its back. The plant helps defend the creature by spraying spores to put enemies to sleep or lashing out with thorny vines. Charizard looks similar to a small dragon. It breathes extremely hot flames and is capable of carrying creatures away. Charizard is said to only desire to fight worthy opponents.
That’s it for this week! If you end up adding these Pokémon into your game or you have any request for a future Monstrous Physique, please drop me a line at KnowDirection@hotmail.com.
