Picto Box

The, also known as the , is a recurring Series: in.

In, the Pictograph Box is a sepia-toned camera which Link obtains from the Swamp Tourist Center after rescuing Koume from the Woods of Mystery. It can hold only one pictograph at a time.

The Swamp Tourist Center runs a Pictograph Contest while the swamp is poisoned. If Link submits a standard pictograph from inside the swamp, Link can choose between a free boat tour or 5 Rupees; if he submits a pictograph of a Big Octo, he can choose between a free boat tour or 20 Rupees; if he submits a pictograph of Tingle (the Swamp Tourist Center Guide's son) or the Deku King, he will be rewarded with a Piece of Heart.

The Fisherman of Great Bay requests Link a pictograph of a Gerudo Pirate in exchange for the Seahorse that he captured near Pinnacle Rock. In Zora Hall, a Zora requests a pictograph of Lulu; if Link gives him a picture including her face, he will give him 20 Rupees.

In, the Pictograph Box now takes pictographs in full color, as well as in 3D if the feature is enabled on the Nintendo 3DS.

In, the Picto Box is found inside a Treasure Chest hidden in the crawlspace maze inside Windfall Island's Town Jail. It allows Link to take and store up to three black and white Pictographs at a time, and is able to zoom in and out using the C-Stick, similarly to the Telescope.

In, the storage is increased to twelve Pictographs. The Picto Box also has a new feature which enables Link to take self-Pictographs while making any of nine facial expressions. Prior to the closure of Miiverse in 2017, Link could send Pictographs to the service via Tingle Bottle, to be distributed to other players. Pictographs found inside Tingle Bottles can be saved in the Picto Box for later use in the Nintendo Gallery. The Deluxe Picto Box is not required to save color Pictographs from Tingle Bottles.

Deluxe Picto Box
The Deluxe Picto Box is an upgraded version of the original Picto Box which allows Link to take Pictographs in full color. It is obtained by completing the Lenzo's Research Assistant quest, in which Link must catch a Forest Firefly from Forest Haven.

In, catching a Forest Firefly is no longer required to complete the quest and upgrade to the Deluxe Picto Box.
