To unlock this feature, you need to obtain 100 points.

How to get an Island scan?

To activate the Island scan, you need to earn enough QR code points. Each QR code in the game corresponds to one Pokemon in the Pokedex. You can simply use the default camera to scan this QR code and feed them to your Pokedex.
