To avoid having a specific photo taken, use PSI Teleport to travel over its hot spot, if it has one. You'll speed right over the hot spot and the game won't even realize it. Even with this trick, however, there are still three absolutely-unavoidable photo spots. |
To Get: Walk into the yard any time after Buzz Buzz dies and the sun rises. To Avoid: Just never go back home. |
To Get: Buy the house from the realtor in Onett for $7500, then go inside and walk in front of the couch. To Avoid: Just don't buy the house. Or, if you do buy it, just stay away from the front of the couch. |
To Get: Just walk up to the bike shop in Twoson. To Avoid: Just stay away. If you really want to go inside, go around the fence or come back later and use the PSI Teleport trick. |
To Get: Walk all the way up to the far left area of Peaceful Rest Valley. To Avoid: Just stay away. There's nothing there anyway. |
To Get: Walk over the hot spot after you've exited the cabin at least once. To Avoid: Go up and around the cabin to get back to the cave. |
To Get: Walk into the Chaos Theater. To Avoid: This one is a tad difficult, but try to squeeze your way in from the left or right. Be careful when you leave, too. |
To Get: Walk below the Tessie-watcher's tent. To Avoid: Just be careful to go around the top if you need to go to the other tents. |
To Get: Read the sign in the maze. To Avoid: Simply don't read the sign. |
To Get: Walk up to the gravestone that's all by itself between the two main graveyards. To Avoid: Just stay away. There's nothing around there, anyway. |
To Get: Just walk up to the waterfall. PHOTO UNAVOIDABLE |
To Get: Walk by the tree stump after you return from Belch's Factory. To Avoid: Stay as far left as possible when walking to the Milky Well cave entrance. |
To Get: Walk up to the circus tent in Threed after the Zombie Paper stops the zombies. To Avoid: Just stay away from the circus tent after you use the Zombie Paper. There's no need to go back, anyway. |
To Get: Talk to the Black Sesame Seed in the western half of the Dusty Dunes Desert. To Avoid: Simply don't talk to it. |
To Get: Beat all the Guardian Diggers in the gold mine, then go outside. To Avoid: This requires some trickery, but if everyone in your party dies after you defeat all the Guardian Diggers (but before going outside), you can avoid the photo. Get everyone poisoned (Thirsty Coil Snakes are good) before you fight the final mole. |
To Get: Walk along the bridge between the Dusty Dunes Desert and Fourside, near the top. To Avoid: Just walk lower if you need to walk into town. Only bums walk into town anyway. Buses and teleporting are faster, plus they don't trigger photo spots. |
To Get: Walk up to the Fourside Museum. To Avoid: Walk as far from the center of the steps as you can when going inside. You can also use the teleport trick here. Just be careful when you leave! |
To Get: Walk up to the sign by the dinosaur bones. To Avoid: Simply stay away. |
To Get: This one is often overlooked. Just walk into this area peeking out between buildings. To Avoid: Simply stay away. |
To Get: Walk near the toys on the top floor of the Fourside Department Store. To Avoid: Simply stay away. Go around if you need to. |
To Get: Enter the Dalaam throne room after Poo has teamed up with Ness and friends. To Avoid: Simply stay away. |
To Get: Walk up to the palace in Dalaam after Poo has teamed up with Ness and friends. To Avoid: Simply stay away, or use the teleport trick. |
To Get: Walk to the Stonehenge base entrance from below. To Avoid: Simply stay away, and enter from other directions when necessary. |
To Get: Walk up to the hotel in Summers. To Avoid: Simply stay away, or use the teleport trick. |
To Get: Walk into the center of the Summers restaurant. To Avoid: Stay out of the restaurant, or stay away from the central area if you do go inside. |
To Get: Walk around the beach umbrellas near the gelato vendor in Summers. To Avoid: Simply stay away. |
To Get: Walk near the ship captain. To Avoid: Go around. |
To Get: Walk around the bazaar area. To Avoid: Simply don't pass through that part of town. |
To Get: Walk up to the pyramid entrance. To Avoid: Use PSI Teleport α and go in diagonally from the left or right. It might take a few tries, but it's possible. |
To Get: Walk around the desert south of Dungeon Man. To Avoid: Simply avoid that patch of desert. |
To Get: Walk near the myna bird in the central area of Deep Darkness. To Avoid: Simply stay away or avoid the area to the right of the bird. |
