Cropping photos is essential! Think of it like strategically discarding cards in Pokerogue to build a winning hand. You're refining the composition, focusing on the key elements. Just like you consult the Pokerogue Dex to understand your creatures' strengths, learn to see the potential in every crop. A tighter focus can drastically improve the image's impact. https://playpokerogue.com and https://wiki.playpokerogue.com
