Up until March 2nd, Trainers will be able to encounter Clone Pikachu by opening the title’s camera and snapping photos. You will then have a chance to see this version of the iconic character photobomb your image.

This photobomb opportunity is where you will have the ability to catch Clone Pikachu. However, you will have to do it quickly enough with a spare poke ball before the character runs away, and you will have to wait until another one of its photobombs before you have the chance to add this unique character to your team.
