How to catch the Smeargle in Pokemon Go – Pokémon Guide GO

Smeargle, the missing Pokémon Gen 2, is finally acceptable in Pokemon Go. This page explains in detail how to make Smeargle appear in Pokemon Go with a detailed procedure and tips.

Smeargle is a normal type known as "Painter Pokemon", originally from the Johto region. In basic Pokemon games, it has a unique movement called "Sketch". This movement allows him to permanently copy an attack used by his opponent. This mechanism is changed in Pokemon Go. Smeargle, instead of having a move called "Sketch", will automatically have the movements of the Pokémon that you take a picture of when it appears. Read below for more details!

How to catch Smeargle[[[[edit]

• Look at any Pokemon in the Pokemon tab.
• Tap the camera icon at the top right to start taking pictures of the Pokemon.
• Take pictures of the Pokemon.

• When done, tap the arrow in the upper left corner to exit.
  
• Review your photos and look for a Smeargle. It will be close to the camera and will probably block your original subject!
• If Smeargle has photographed any of them, he will appear next to you around the world, ready to be captured.
  
• Keep in mind that Smeargle can work as any Pokemon, so use your best bays to keep it online.

Smeargle Capture Tips and Notes[[[[edit]

• You do do not need AR + to catch Smeargle.
• When taking pictures, you can only view the last 10 taken. It is possible that Smeargle will shoot a photo that you do not edit, and that it appears as captured regardless of the photo.
• The likelihood of photoblocking a photo by Smeargle is not clear, but it can be quite rare. Some reported taking more than 1,000 photos without always finding Smeargle. Others have found a Smeargle in their first batch of photos.
• Smeargle will learn the movements of the Pokémon you took when it appears.
• If Smeargle emits a signal beam inexplicably, simply restart Pokemon Go. This should solve this problem.
