The Fireflow Volcano course in New Pokemon Snap is home to some of the series' most popular Pokemon. Here's where to find them all.

Players will unlock the Fireflow Volcano course in New Pokemon Snap once they have photographed the glowing Crystabloom and reached research level 2 in the Sands (Night) course. It's one of the shortest in the game, but still manages to pack in quite a lot of Pokemon. There are 17 in total, the vast majority of which can only be found and photographed here, making it a great place to pad out one's Photodex a little.

The course has two routes, although the second won't be available until after players have reached research level 2. After that, they'll be able to select which one they take by scanning the area off to the right immediately after entering the volcano section of the course. There are three Pokemon that won't show up until research level 3, as well as a Legendary Pokemon that swoops down once players have completed New Pokemon Snap's main story.

  • Altaria - There's a flock of Altaria at the very beginning of the course, although the best one to photograph is perhaps the one directly behind the NEO-ONE's starting position.
  • Archeops - Archeops is another Pokemon that can be photographed in the opening section of the course, but there are much better photo opportunities later on inside the volcano.
  • Luxray - There are a couple of Luxray in the starting area and another one later on as players enter the volcano itself. The one near the beginning on the right is probably the easiest one to get a good picture of though.
  • Talonflame - A Talonflame will fly over the player's head as they travel down the little incline into the area with the rampaging Tyrantrum. Another can be seen perched on a pillar in the same area.
  • Monferno - Shortly after the Talonflame flies overhead, a Monferno will momentarily hop down in front of the player's path. At higher research levels there's a much better photo opportunity though, as players will pass two Monferno playing near a sleeping Tyrantrum shortly after entering the volcano.
  • Graveler - Several Graveler will roll down the little inline and into the volcano not long after the course begins. They can then be found hanging from walls inside and hitting them with a Fluffruit will usually be enough to knock them off.
  • Aerodactyl - Aerodactyl can sometimes be seen in the skies above the starting area, but the best places to take photos of it are either in the open section with the angry Tyrantrum or in the area that houses the course's alternate exit.
  • Tyrantrum - There's a rampaging Tyrantrum in the open area just after the incline. At higher research levels, there'll actually be two of them there as well as one sleeping inside the volcano and another in the final chamber on the regular route.
  • Charmander - There are a few Charmander up on the rock cliffs in the open area staring down at the carnage, but players will get a lot closer to the Pokemon after entering the volcano. They show up in numerous places on both routes, so players won't be short of opportunities to get a few good pictures.
  • Slugma - Slugma can be found swimming around in the lava and climbing the walls in the final chamber on the regular route. At higher research levels, they'll also show up in the blue room and the chamber just before it.
  • Torkoal - There's a Torkoal sleeping near the course's regular exit, but players may be better off waiting until research level 2 and snapping pictures of the ones in the blue room as they'll get much better shots.
  • Shinx - Shinx shows up very briefly at the start of the course, but getting a decent picture here can be difficult. Thankfully, it appears in several other places too, including directly in the path of the NEO-ONE if players take the alternate route immediately after entering the volcano.
  • Typhlosion - After taking the alternate route, Typhlosion can be found in the final chamber. Once players have seen it for the first time, one will also show up on the rocks directly above the player in the starting area and it can be photographed from both sides of the incline.
  • Flareon - Players can find a Flareon in the blue room just before the end of the alternate route and hitting the nearby Crystabloom with an Illumina Orb will cause another one to show up. There's also a whole army of them climbing the winding path in the final chamber, although they're way too far away to get a decent picture of them.
  • Charizard - Once players have reached research level 3, they'll be able to find Charizard flying around in the final chamber on the regular route. It's fighting with an angry Tyrantrum, which makes for some pretty cool photographs.
  • Vivillon - A lone Vivillon will fly out of the ancient ruins right before players reach the end of the alternate route. Players will have to act quickly if they want to get a picture though, as the course will end just a few seconds after it appears.
  • Ho-Oh - Once players have completed the game's main story, they'll be able to find Ho-Oh by turning right at the very beginning of the course and taking a picture of it through a gap in the rocks. After turning in the photo, returning to the course and photographing it again will lead to three feathers spawning in on the alternate route which players will need to hit with an Illumina Orb and then photograph. The first is on the wall of a cavern just after passing the sleeping Shinx, the second is underneath a sleeping Shuckle to the right of the entrance to the blue room and the final one is on one of the nearby blue pillars next to where Charizard and Flareon are playing. If done correctly, Ho-Oh will approach players in the final chamber.
