Photard

A photard is that one person in the high school yearbook that didn't make it for photo day, and wound up with a photographic framing, lighting, or exposure situation that does not match the other several hundred photos in the book. Ironically enough, those students that are socially awkward, nerdy, and/or wear thick coke-bottle glasses often end up as photards.

"I can't believe i wound up being a photard AGAIN this year. Man i'm pissed off."
"Is it me, or is Brigette's picture sliiiighty photarded?"

Photaca

Yet another Pokemon we'd like to see: a Grass-type Pokemon that looks like a white alpaca, that uses its square "nose" to "zoom" in and take a picture of its opponent to confuse it, the Photo Confuse attack. Other attacks: Crunch Slap (Photaca folds its body in half, then suddenly unfolds, slapping its opponent with both ends of the former's body simultaneously), Swift, and Transport (Photaca teleports itself and anything on it).

A Photaca! Now that's a really RARE Pokemon, Ash!
