Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Long Black/Loading Screens? [More Info](#tech-support message)
steps 2-7, do what you can
?tag mobilealt
you already did that before, why are you doing it again
the mega link isn't update, the guide even says if the mediafire doesn't work, you need to be patient
Reset the sprite cache at the help man in a pokecenter.
make sure "download data" is on in the settings and you have internet.
then play for a bit and check this file again.
yes i did that but the file just same
did you do the reset cache?
I would expect that file to be totally empty if you did.
do it again, just to make sure.
ok I'll do
i am haveing a black screen. has happend 3 times now and all of them wehre when i sould find the raiku and suicune fusion
Hey @faint jungle! Black screen in this game is the loading screen. The duration of the black screen depends on YOUR computer and YOUR internet.
- If you get the message below while opening the game, this means to stop clicking/pressing buttons on the screen as it is loading.
- If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.

^steps 2-7, do what you can
ok
if the issue further persists, you'd need one of the porygons to try and help
i- think I might just be missing the sprite entirely somehow because nothing seems to be working, and also in the menu I see many unfused sprite replaced by circled question marks
hii tell me what's wrong in this mapping and I did my best but I cant seem to make them work
Also my move buttons are inverted for left and right buttons. How do I fix this? Thank youu
have you seen any custom sprites at all?
base or fusion
doesn't matter
if yes; then your game is working as intended
if not, you need to do the steps in the sprite issue screenshot to try and resolve it
hmmm and could it be possible that the sprite somehow isn't in the game files/got removed by some accident?
there was only one instance where sprites were getting removed by the repo, that got fixed
so unless the spirter asked for their art to be taken out of the game, the sprite still exists and your game just maybe hasn't had a chance to download it [assuming its been uploaded to the repo at all]
in regards to the sprite you want, does one of them have the spriter name under it instead of saying it was mabe by japeal
if that is the case, that means your game hasn't had a chance to download it yet
did all the things i can. same problem
yes
hi please help me here this is Andriod
so what should I do?
we need a porygon
can I manually download the sprites?
Redescribe your issue to me
i get a black screen when i soul encounter the raiku and suicune fusion. no other encounters. just that one

The most likely reason your game is opening and closing is due to improperly updated game files. We mention in #downloads to not update ANY files versions below 6.6.0.
If you're using the Launcher:
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from #downloads
- Open the settings tab
- Click "Reset Config"
NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
If you're not using the Launcher:
Use the Lightweight installer guide to install in a NEW folder ➡️ Click Here⬅️
If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.
Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way.
ok
NVM
I remembered the wrong raicune crash
your save needs to be manually repaired by a tech manager
I’ll send your ticket up
so, one of my custom sprites are not showing because (according to the previous helper) it hasn't been downloaded yet. I am asking is if there is a way to manually download specific sprites into the game.
Hey @south sage! You can download the game from: [#downloads](#downloads message)
If you need a guide, they are located: [HERE](#tech-support message)
it isnt a crash. no white thing. and i still hear the musik
The black screen is the softlock raicune crash
please save right before the encounter
done that
@rigid silo Raicune save fix when you have a sec
till Ymir gets back to you just hang tight
ok
?tag importsp
To successfully import your own custom sprite, please follow these steps:
Sprite Requirements:
- Format: The sprite must be in
.pngformat. - Naming Convention: Name your sprite according to the game's dex numbering. For example, a fusion of Aegislash and Goodra should be named
329.446.png.
Importing Your Sprite:
- Ensure your sprite meets the criteria above.
- Open your game folder and navigate to
Graphics/CustomBattlers/Sprites to import. - Paste your sprite into this folder.
In-Game Instructions:
- Launch the game.
- The game will automatically detect the new sprites.
- If you have an existing sprite that you're replacing, select the option "Replace All the old sprites with the new ones" when prompted.
Once completed, you can view your custom sprite in-game from the Pokedex's Sprite tab.
thnx
Guys, is there a solution for the long wait any time I open the cloth, hat and hair shop?
ok i did that again but the files just still same
Did anyone have this issue when playing on Android?
it isnt made for android (i think)
This is on their website, it says Android. I've got it installed, it the game runs, this error pops up whenever I try to get past the new game page
you followed the guide wrong
?tag android
Check our Official Android guide ➡️ HERE.⬅️ If you didn't follow this guide, DELETE and UNINSTALL everything.
All Android bugs/workarounds are in the guide. If your issue isn't listed, there's no fix. No dedicated mobile version of IF will be developed in the future.
Beware of Unofficial Websites That Claim To Be Official.
The only official sources to download the game are here, the game's subreddit or the pokecommunity thread.
To clean out your computer:
- Delete all the save files from the fake files. It's not recommended to keep these, as they have bugs and fake data that the normal game doesn't have.
🔵 Your game folder has a shortcut that you double click namedSavefileto take you to the location to delete all save files. They are namedFile A.rxdata. - Delete any zipped/unzipped folders from there
- Run a virus scan
After doing all the steps, use #downloads to download the real files.
@quasi abyss ff
it isn't made for anything outside windows pcs
but we have guides [work arounds] for other devices

i know
ye thats probably it ty
but when will i get help from ymir?
expecting help from a single specific staff is iffy at best
ok
But I have done what I can
thanks for what that
yesterday he was active around 10-noon
but then again that was the weekend
its monday so they could have work,
Dragging my confusion in here cuz I'm not sure where else to go with this: anyone else having issues with the feedback bot in Spritework not working? It's been an ongoing issue for me since last weekend, and I drew a blank in Spriting Discussion. 
we don't handle the bots
this chat is only for tech support with the game itself
anything else you'd need to take up with...i have no idea who is in charge of the bots
check in with #spriter-general maybe someone in there will know who deals with them
That's where I just came from. OTL
I will forward into Staff to look into it
Thank you!

^steps 2-7, do what you can
some of the sprites of my Pokémon are missing can someone tell me how to fix it please, i just can play the game with my Pokémon looking this ugly...
you need to actively be using the mons in battle, or fuse stuff
@verbal timber thank you
the game can only download so many sprites at a specific interval before it has to stop
i wait for ymir
do running in circles work?
that is the main thing i can do
if you aren't using the mons in some capacity, sprites don't get downloaded
go do something else, ymir will contact you when he is able
you just sitting in here occasionally posting you are waiting doesn't help you or anyone else
Do I seek help for script issues here or another area?
i know
i can atleast play the game. just cant go to thunder storm area
if it is for this game, yes
a screenshot of the error is helpful should oyu have one
that will give us a LOT more info
?tag randerror
When randomizing the game, you can only randomize Trainers and Gym leaders if you are playing Classic or Randomized Mode.
Randomizing trainers on Remix and Expert Mode will crash trainer battlers.
Steps:
- Go to a Pokemon Center and talk to Help Man (guy in black suit)
- Select Advanced Settings -> Randomizer Settings -> Turn Trainers/Gyms OFF
nvm auto helped helped me with the problem i assume
telling me to turn off random trainers and gyms in remix mode
i see and i guess there is no way to prioritize the download of the mons in my party ,or is it?
yea it worked to turn off trainers. Thank you for your time though!
game will grab what it is able, as it is able
if the sprite you are using doesn't change, you can check the alts tab occasionally
?tag alts
To change a Pokemon's sprite to an alternative one, go to their Pokedex entry (this can be done from their summary screen) and go to the "Sprites" tab. Here you can scroll through the different available sprites.

ok , thank you so much for helping me ,i appreciate..
how do i pass this old man? he is in the house next to the bell tower
wrong channle
lol , the sprite finally appear but now i have and other problem the custom sprites look exactly like the IA generate sprite, can some one help me fix this, please?
is there a wat ro chane the settings of the game to where i can have the startes start as random and stuff
that means the game hasn't downloaded it yet
?tag randomized
To unlock randomized mode: Create a new game, save in Pallet Town, and create a 2nd new game. More options will appear since the 1st save is locked to Classic Mode.
Our randomizer doesn't offer true randomization meaning each Pokemon or item you find is **not ** going to be random each time. Instead we offer the below for Pokemon:
Global:
- Makes it so that if Pidgey was randomized to Pikachu on route 1, all Pidgeys on all routes are Pikachu.
Area:
- Better randomization than Global. Makes it so that each route has their own randomized set of encounters.
For more questions on other randomizer settings, checkout the Randomized Mode Wiki Page
ok .please forgive my ignorance and thank you for everything..
why is my non fusion pokemon doesnt show sprite, or show question mark
It happend to me too
It is prob an error with the code
went to the pokemon center i didnt see any man in black
Every unfused pokemon is a ? For me and custom sprites does not show up to me pls help
issue found, fixed in a day or two when the owner of the bot has time!
says error
anyone got a solution ?
10 hours of needing a porygon to help me fix my game. and yet to porygon
same applies to you as well
mine said error when i logged in again it took me back to where i had the issue again
example
try fixing the game then doing the cache reset
it keeps going like this
is it still an option to reverse a fusion without having to unfuse first?
Hello im getting this when i try to run the game (image), when i run the perfomance exe it works but abit laggy and sprites dont show for alot of pokemon (new user just downloaded the game from wiki link)

ohhh its a different item ok thx
use infinitefusion-performance
@verbal timber is it normal that even vanilla sprites are missing for example pidgey and starters?
i have turned on download option in settings but i dont see any difference, do i have to let the game open for a while and it will download them?
you need to be actively playing
battling
fusing
propably, i did the fix thing with the guy in pokemon center and (image) i assumed the custom sprites might take a while to download while i play but vanilla pokemon i assumed they should be there
the game doesn't come stock with any sprites
oooh
thats why after every restart some of them appear
i guess its downloading them but doesnt say it anywhere
and applies them when i close and reopen it
anyways thanks alot for the responses @verbal timber
I imported the spritepack but there are still a few sprites that say the name of an artist but aren’t custom
are those supposed to have sprites once theyre imported?
importing doesnt work the way you think.
you are basically just adding duplicates without credit while leaving the ones with credit to be filled by the auto-download
I wouldnt advice to touch spritepacks at all.
the game auto-downloads all sprites, with a cooldown.
exceptions may apply, void in Ohio
ohh alrighty, I only did it because I’m on steamdeck and it was being weird so I think something was going on preventing the sprite downloading from working at all
The game was working fine after install, but now for some reason it wont load past the "press any key to continue" after the starting animation
thats your internet.
you can confirm it for yourself by launching the game with your internet turned off
@rigid silo every time i encounter the raiku suicue fusion mÿ screen stays black after the animation. i have waited 12 hours and i have not fixed it even with the help of a few leople. can you help me?
who can help me please
What is your phone?
Yes
Okay... Return to french
sure, send me your save in a DM
I will have a look when I have time somewhere tomorrow or the day after
IIRC you can also just keep playing for now until it moves to a new location, that should fix it too
I'm trying to play the randomizer mod on Android, but every time the text "the pokemons have been shuffled" appears after chosing the randomizer settings, the game freezes and I can't do anything, is it just me?
Hello, i'm having a problème when i launch my game. I have green stripes on the screen, Do you know how to fixe this ?
i dont have the sprites of the base pokemon (expect the starters) how do i fix it?
Try updating your graphic drivers

I have a species error and I encounter it when accepting a trade with a man on the SS. Anne. Afterwards the game just crashes.
I was trying to see if this was the man that trades you a Growlithe for a Shellder. He says he likes strong and rare pokemon

im having a problem with the lunar feathers quest and wondered if someone can help me because google cant.
im on version 6.2.3, ive collected all the feathers but i keep getting the promt to get the feather from crimson city,
when i go to the help guy and fix the game the feather re-appears on the bed at the orphanage and i interact with it but nothing changes, any help at all or possible fixes for this bug?
you are out of date
current v is 6.6.2
we don't help with old versions
you'd need to fresh install

Hello, not sure if I'm asking this in the right place, but some of the quests are not being marked as completed even though I completed the quest. I have completed the Lunar Feather quest and got both Cressalia and Darkrai, but the quest is still saying it isn't complete. I tried the debugging guy, but he made it so that all quests (even ones I didn't start) were completed and I felt like that is kind of cheating in a way.
known issue, no fix
ill give this a go
maybe its cause of the sprites i used. i deleted the whole game and downloaded again, so does it mean i cant use character sprites anymore

When asking for help, please be as specific as possible! We cannot help you if you don't give us the information we need!
Info we need:
- Explain the issue. Do not just say "Game won't work"! This does not help us at all!
- Where did you get the game files from? Discord, google doc from discord?
- Are you using the Launcher?
- Did you update to 6.4 from old files or install in a new folder?
- What version are you on? (Open the game, title screen says)
- What device are you playing on? (Windows, Android, Mac, etc.)
- Send a screenshot if applicable. Often times, it is hard to describe your issue. Send a screenshot so we can see what you are seeing. Especially if you are getting an error.

How to restore to a backup save
This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+
- Open your game folder
- Double click
SaveFile - Double click the folder named
backups - Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex:
File A - Rename the most recent file to
File A.rxdata(The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot) - Copy the newly renamed file and paste it into the previous folder. (This will be the folder you had open after step 2) When asked to replace, click
yes.
Note: If you don't feel comfortable overriding the save, you can rename it to a different letter on step 5. Ex: File B.rxdata instead of File A.rxdata

- If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click
INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.batto update. - If you're below 6.6.0 you must either reinstall in a NEW folder (since the updater won't work due to bugs) or use the New Launcher to update.
- Reinstalling doesn’t remove or require you to move any Save Files.
- If playing on a Randomized save, make sure to reshuffle after updating. Use
?tag reshuffleif you need help.
For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post
Android
well
I need to do something I come back in 30min
tried, unfortunately didnt work though
?tag customsprites
No tag customsprites found.
I'm back
I asked you what is your phone, not your operating system
Oh I forgot to ask but how did you update?
I downloaded the new version
and removed the old one
i thought the save files weren't a part of the game files though?
Saves files are not in the game files
on most devices that is correct, steamdeck and android are weird
yeah
They are in the root for these two yes
i was having issues with loading the save files before updating anyway so maybe that's what happened
im on PC
pc keeps saves tucked away separate from game files
but going off what i've seen, it looks like all your saves got corrupted
so unless the backups of those saves work, they are hard gone
you will need to manually delete all the saves and backups
generally saves won't corrupt on their own, the biggest cause for that is usually onedrive [or another cloud sync program]
so make sure you have your game folder in downloads [as that is normally not touched by that stuff]
oh yeah ive had this save file sent through like 3 different computers 😭
it is possible somewhere in that process it got ganked by something
most likely yes
im totally new to the game, did anyone know how to get the custom sprites ?
i downloaded the newest custom pack and put it on my graphic folder, yet still nothing happened
You don't need custom sprite pack
Custom sprites are automatically downloaded while playing since you got internet and turn on "download data" in options
but my game crash if i turn my internet on and with the download data on
Did you get any error message?
it simply turn to a black screen if i engage in any interaction
Hey @inner imp! Black screen in this game is the loading screen. The duration of the black screen depends on YOUR computer and YOUR internet.
- If you get the message below while opening the game, this means to stop clicking/pressing buttons on the screen as it is loading.
- If you get the message while in game, this means your computer is struggling.

Guys, i don`t know why but my gamepad stopped working in the game. Only in PIF
It's not on compatible and incompatible list. But that's maybe a lack of performance
You're on phone ?
on pc
make sure the gamepad has the latest firmware
double check the connection between the gamepad and your pc
if all else fails, add the game to steam and play it through there, that "should" remedy it
if not, then i have no idea what to tell you
the game engine this is working in is 20 years old, and has limited controller support
Sorry but I need to go, someone else will continue with you
the game crashing with no error [if you aren't getting one] means the problem is on your end

I need help. I defeated Giovanni in Mt. Ember, but he's not in the gym. What should I do?
I defeated the gym NPCs, but Giovanni isn't there
what version are you on
where did you get the game files from
Hey guys, I think this is the right spot, but I've been try to get back into PIF lately downloaded the latest version, but playing on an older save, I keep getting this error then the game crashes

Official site
?tag fakefiles
Beware of Unofficial Websites That Claim To Be Official.
The only official sources to download the game are here, the game's subreddit or the pokecommunity thread.
To clean out your computer:
- Delete all the save files from the fake files. It's not recommended to keep these, as they have bugs and fake data that the normal game doesn't have.
🔵 Your game folder has a shortcut that you double click namedSavefileto take you to the location to delete all save files. They are namedFile A.rxdata. - Delete any zipped/unzipped folders from there
- Run a virus scan
After doing all the steps, use #downloads to download the real files.
@quasi abyss ff
we dont have a website outside what this discord provides
How old was the save from?
Id say a good year or so, theres a good chance thats it but if there was a way to save it that would be great
yeah thats a no. A lot has changed with the game now
Guys I’m stuck on only autogen sprites after updating from like 5.1 to 6.6, I have even downloaded latest graphic folder pack and I even if I try to change sprites from pokedex its only 2 times the same autogen sprite… Trying to download the 3gb full game now 🤷🏻♂️
It's a shame but understandable appreciate it Toby
?tag resetcache
For missing sprites on the 6.6 update, talk to the help man in any Pokémon center and navigate to Advanced Options -> Other -> Reset -> Clear Sprite Cache. Video
any save from 5.1 onward is compatible
5.0-5.1 is a bit finnicky [just be outside the changed story content]
saves prior to 5.0 are dust in the wind
The save is fine
Save was created Mar 17, 2023 probably took a break around April-ish
eh
that is prior to 5.0
so unless you migrated it when the file to do so existed, it isn't compatible
Thats all good, wasnt sure about time lines, it seems finicky, sometimes it works sometimes i get the crash, might just restart to be safe
yep
Hello I’m currently at offshore road surfing on my way to Mt. Ember but my game keeps crashing. Is there any way I can fix this?
i was tryna figure out how 2 import sprites im good now
Update: I think my laptop was just overheating or something cause it’s not crashing anymore
Sorry for any inconvenience I made
ive turned on internet and download data, and ive waited for 1 hours at least, but still no sprite
by waiting do you mean just sitting afk
because that isn't how the game is able to download sprites
you need to be actively playing the game
battling and fusing
i mean i open some pokedex
that won't do anything
Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Long Black/Loading Screens? [More Info](#tech-support message)
steps 2-7, do what you can
i alr done every step
I installed the game again, put my save and the same thing happened
you didnt delete your save
like the bot message says
fake saves have issues unique to them
we can't fix that
delete that save and start fresh
any save you made while playing with fake files needs to be deleted
?tag wifi
Going to sound weird, but turn off WiFi/internet on your device and try again. For some reason, even though your internet might be working just fine, something about this game clogs it up. Once you are in game, if issue persists, turn off Download Data as well.
^tack this on just to see if it helps
if not, then your device is either not up to snuff to run the game properly, or is too OP
update

any updates? i havnt been on in like 6 months haha
We're currently in 6.6.2
Just go to #downloads to see it

The most likely reason your game is opening and closing is due to improperly updated game files. We mention in #downloads to not update ANY files versions below 6.6.0.
If you're using the Launcher:
- Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from #downloads
- Open the settings tab
- Click "Reset Config"
NOTE: The original path that the launcher shows will be your old game folder. That folder should be deleted. The new game folder will be inPIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion

Im not sure what tk call this but I like like its not intended to work that way
Update its not a bug i just had wtw turned on
Launcher just isn't working for me. I deleted the old one as well.
I click play and nothing happens.
I have just downloaded the 6.6.2 version of the game but i have a save file from 5.1.2. But the issue I have is that my character is just a floating piece of hair 😆
Forgot to the delete the old game files.
for some reason that fixed it self by just running 
Thank you.
how to fix this?
why is the pokemon looked like this?
mine was like that for some pokemon when I used an old save as well, but it fixed itself after a little while
I only checked it in the pc
i found a bug
idk if what im gone sey its the way to do it cuz it was mist click
it hapend wen in 3 gym stears were coming down and i presed buton agend and agen and my camera buged and i cult not move
Can you put some screen
If you can
Or if this is useful
uh i used debuger befot i thinked of screnshot
See if you can redo it, a bug needs to be re-doable to be confirmed
ok il try
(you can save before and quit without saving after the bug to not have the need to use the debugger again)
Is anyone else having trouble launching the game after updating to the latest one? I click on play but nothing happens.

?tag randerror
When randomizing the game, you can only randomize Trainers and Gym leaders if you are playing Classic or Randomized Mode.
Randomizing trainers on Remix and Expert Mode will crash trainer battlers.
Steps:
- Go to a Pokemon Center and talk to Help Man (guy in black suit)
- Select Advanced Settings -> Randomizer Settings -> Turn Trainers/Gyms OFF
surprised you got that far before it triggered
completely normal
Okay
idk if this is the right place to ask but i dont know where to access randomizer settings
Hey @void wharf! To unlock randomized mode: Create a new game, save in Pallet Town, and create a 2nd new game. More options will appear since the 1st save is locked to Classic Mode.
Our randomizer doesn't offer true randomization meaning each Pokemon or item you find is **not ** going to be random each time. Instead we offer the below for Pokemon:
Global:
- Makes it so that if Pidgey was randomized to Pikachu on route 1, all Pidgeys on all routes are Pikachu.
Area:
- Better randomization than Global. Makes it so that each route has their own randomized set of encounters.
For more questions on other randomizer settings, checkout the Randomized Mode Wiki Page
thank you mr bot

Hey! I don't know if this is the right place to put it, because it is technical, but its not an issue. But is tampering with the files allowed/possible? I want to change the shiny rate because I wanted to play around with shiny fusions, but I am not spending hours trying to get several shinies.
I would ask in gameplay help but it doesnt really seem gameplay related either...

Why don't all my Pokemon have pictures?
only the ones that have been combined have pictures
dont know if this has been addressed already but when you get a bike and talk to the biker in cerulean to start the race to get aerial ace, if you win you get stuck in the trees to the left. cant move or use any items to get out but you can teleport or fly out assuming you have any of those. cant imagine this was intended so im hoping it gets fixed?

?tag backups
How to restore to a backup save
This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+
- Open your game folder
- Double click
SaveFile - Double click the folder named
backups - Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex:
File A - Rename the most recent file to
File A.rxdata(The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot) - Copy the newly renamed file and paste it into the previous folder. (This will be the folder you had open after step 2) When asked to replace, click
yes.
Note: If you don't feel comfortable overriding the save, you can rename it to a different letter on step 5. Ex: File B.rxdata instead of File A.rxdata

Send a screenshot of your game folder
Your launcher is outdated
it shouldnt be. i LITERALLY just downloaded it a little while ago using the link that was provided in #downloads
Your version is 1.1.0 but the last is 1.1.2
Oh okay, mb so, sorry
all good.
Wait there's an actual launcher for the game?
yeah
I've just been clicking the Game.exe file
oh
its cause i did lightweight installer
lmao
how do i put the sprite packs into the game, cause i redownloaded it recently and theres a few base sprites that are missing?
Anyone know why my save is labeled as randomized? I made this save for standard/classic
If you talked to the guy in the black suit he will flag your game as randomised
Does this mess with anything later down the line? 🙁
Only you cant complete your Pokedex and have it count to getting the debug boots and when U get into hall of fame it will say randomised
wdym i cant complete my pokedexs
You can but you won't get the debug boots for doing so because it thinks your game is randomised and that voids it
What are debug boots?

Basically godmode

I'll ask to see if there's anything that can be done to fix Ur save so keep playing while I wait for a response
Like I thought it'd be fine if I looked at the randomized settings I didnt wanna turn it on 😭
at least nothing got randomized
Yeah but it was the action of looking that flagged it
Yeah I get that now 🙁 let me know if theres anything I can do to disable it, its my fault for skipping dialog, bad habit

ive tried using the help man and resetting and all that did was double up the quest in my quest book
is this a known bug?

i also just noticed some of my pokemon have negative xp and aren't levelling up, my inferloom just went up like 8 levells from 62-70 ?

Thx sapphire ☺️
I believe I interacted with him at the very start of my playthrough.
Ah
Then there’s nothing you can do
What events am I locked out of besides the boots?
You can always go for the boots on another playthrough
Ng+ is a good way to go about it tbh
Ah, okay, then it doesnt really matter. I can do Dex completion when I do remixed mode.. or I can go ahead and start remixed mode. Remixed mode can still get the boots right?
🗿
Maybe I should've done remix as my first mode then 
Classic is recommended for first playthrough
You can keep playing classic and save remix for when U go for the boots
What carries over NG+?
U don't need the boots at all it's like a bonus
?tag ng+
New Game + is unlocked after beating the Elite 4. It allows you to transfer your Pokemon from the current save to a brand new save.
This option appears on the Title Screen under New Game and WILL NOT overwrite or delete your save. More info is located in the Wiki: HERE
Where do i download all of the base sprites?
Might just do this
Game should automatically download sprites as you play if you are updated
You don’t (at least in a way the game can use them)
But as long as you’re connected to WiFi and download data is turned on, they’ll auto download as fabled_toast said
Oh
Beats the old way from when I first played the game years ago and have to manually download and install each sprite pack
Hey saph if I did a living dex in one save and new gamed plus would that new game plus count for the boots?
Like a save that was tagged randomised 
…yes
One idea U could do is make a living dex in Ur "randomised" save and new game plus into a new game and all you'd need to do is evolve everything and you got a Pokedex done and can get the boots 
I do think just doing a remix save and playing that way would be easier tho
That’s what I implied here 
Great minds
Lol maybe, I might just do remix on a second playthrough or start over again (my brain always defaults to starting over, idk why)
Can U new game plus a classic save in remix mode?
Probably easier lol
Ng+ should ask you to choose which mode
Neat
On which? Just going to beat the game and doin ng+? Im not necessarily far, only 11 hours in, and a good chunk of that was farming for stuff
Like I just got to Celadon
I’d say go with whatever you’re gonna enjoy more. It’s a game, it’s meant to be fun 
Hmm.. I'll see how i feel on a new save, theres stuff I learned that might help. I have not been talking to trainers after I beat them 
As long as I can get my Squirtle/Pikachu fusion im happy
Yep you could even start with it
How would I be able to start with it?
I did discover naming myself Ash gives me a hat and Pikachu starter lol
But how would I get a squirtle?
When Ur making Ur save at the end of setting it up it will ask you if U wanna "use regular starters" and if you click no
You could just choose custom starters
Yee
You can quite literally start with the fusion 
Feels kinda cheesy, but like.. its tempting.. If Blue gets to have a fusion at the start, why cant I? 
You could even start with froakie Pikachu instead of squirtle
Sky's the limit
I will say don't pick smth op it will make the start boring

Bidoof is peak

Thanks for the help
can someone point me to a walkthrough on finding a specific sprite within the game files so I can add the sprite to the reverse fusion?
Has it got the right amount of items, downloaded yesterday and music was missing
Anyone got any advice for the lunar feathers quest being stuck on the last feather. My karma is negative af and i dont wanna carry on my save if its bugged out and i cant get all the legendaries legit 🙁
Not that its a problem I want fixed immediately, after all I don't get much lucky with it anyway. But I want to ask if there are currently any crash problems with some Pokemons shinies??? I was on a different save file and the game stopped when I spotted my Noibat encounter to be a shiny. Sorry to bother and thank you.
When I try to play offline, the game freezes immediately after the gengar/nidoking cutscene. Any known issues? (On mobile)
I've done all that but it still doesn't work. What's the solution?
how long did you wait? could take a while before it actually starts
Typically 3-5min.
that is a while
why every time i play online my game crashes
Had one bad stutter where the game froze for arround 10-12 ish minutes (got half way into a hunter x hunter episode) when it decided to continue.
hadn't saved for a while so didn't want to risk it
thats your internet.
you can confirm it for yourself by launching with internet disabled totally on your device.
I have done so, the result is the same thing. Either freezes during the cut scene if I give it some sort of button input, or frozen black screen if I leave it alone

steps 2-7, do what you can
if none of that works, there is nothing else we can offer to assist
same for you, do performance steps
I can't play online and can't download sprites
then you need a different device
to get sprites downloaded you need to play online
but since you can't play online due to crashes, that means you can't get sprites downloaded
there is no other way?
I can't play on my poco x7?
if it is listed as incompatible, then yes, that is what that means
we have 0 control over what phones/tablets are compatible with the game
Why does the Oricorio I was given through the quest with the flowers have a ? texture? do I need to download an extra sprite pack or something?
thank you
I have trouble playing on pc, it used to work flawlessly the first time. Now it has long black screen that ranging from 30 second to 3 minutes. Happened everytime I enter a new area or begin/end battle.
And most of the pokemon is ? Sprites or missing entirely

Its not only on the opening screen
Question about this. Does "playing" mean leave the game open and let it run in the background any chance I get? Or is it only triggered on battles/certain interactions. Reason I ask is the sprite Necrozma/Abra had when I caught it isn't available to me in my sprite selection everything else indicates it's working properly, I just didn't know if Necrozma is just weird like that sometimes
Sprite in question
why wont any custom sprite load in my latest download, but when i open a previous download all custom sprites load?
battling and fusing
no, playing means playing

the recent downloads dont come with sprites.
the game auto-downloads them while you play.
Interesting. I've fused and unfused a few times. Guess I just keep sending and hope it pops up. thanks
ooohhh so i have to wait for the sprites to load in game in order to have them?
not "wait", play
okay, thanks a lot
long as you have download data turned on, have an internet connection, and are battling and fusing, the game will grab sprites as it is able
do i need an emulator to play?
this game is not a rom/romhack
Not on the list
Isn't there anything I can do to play it on my phone?

Hi, I talked to a random guy in black and now my game is tagged as "random mode", I haven't activated any option he was giving, I just talked to him... It vas 20h ago... Do I miss on much by continuing or do I have to start again ?
Also, unrelated question, why having options for things if those don't stick ? Deactivating the download is not an option since it always goes back to "on"...
-
only thing you miss out on in that save is earning the magic boots
-
options should stick if you change them in a save, if you are changing the option on the main menu, then it won't stick [also each time you start a new save it will ask if you want it on, which can affect your other saves]
I see... Well... It's still a slight problem in a game where "talk to everyone" is the way to go...
It doesn't stick on my game at least, I have set the option "download data" to "off" every single time I went to this menu and not even once did it stick... And I went to this menu way too often... Also "autogen dex entries" is incapable to stay "off", both reset if you confirm and immediately go back...
Well... I tested as I typed, to be sure... Only the autogen immediately reversed...
Ok... I might be going crazy... The "download data" stayed after a reload this time...

i got some issues loading zoroark custom sprite, the other like charizard or mr mime was just fine, but somehome zoroark didnt load. But i got the notification that some new sprite were imported to the game, but still now sprite on pokedex
if a sprite is a ? image, that means likely the game hasn't had a chance to download it yet
use the mon in battle and eventually the game will grab the sprite; you may need to check the alts for it since I'm not sure if the sprite will change by default
?tag alts
To change a Pokemon's sprite to an alternative one, go to their Pokedex entry (this can be done from their summary screen) and go to the "Sprites" tab. Here you can scroll through the different available sprites.

I guess I liked the wide sprite choice over the ability to use the internet at any time...
I think I read the complete sprite pack is like 4Go ? It's a small price to pay in <current year>
I turned off download data, and that fix the black screen. I downloaded the sprites, but this still happened.
So I turned on the download data option again, still same thing and the long loading screen is back
the sprites did not load at all

? pokemon
when you say you downloaded sprites, what do you mean
did you just grab the most recent sprite pack or?
yes, the july 2025 sprite packs
ok, that only contains sprites for that month
mostly fusion sprites
it would not resolve sprite issues with base mons or older fusion sprites
is it better to use installer 1 or 2 ?
personal preference, though the launcher may get discontinued at some point
and where should I download all the sprites then ?
do you plan to play entirely offline? otherwise, you shouldn't be downloading the packs at all
turning on download data, make the loading screen long and did not even download the sprite at all
so can be good for now? when it will be discontinued i'll just have to delet the launcher and download the other one right?
yes and yes
okay thank you very much for the help ^^
the game can't infinitely download sprites
can anyone please inform me of how to change a sprite now that the game uses spritesheets? wanting to reverse the head/body for a mon with garbage typing
there is a set amount it will download, at set intervals, before a cap is triggered and makes it so for a set period of time, the game doesn't download sprites
find the sprite you want to use
save it
rename it to match the name of the sprite you want it to be
import it [you will now have an uncredited sprite for that mon]
I tried all of these, I reinstall the game many times, speaking to the man, turning off and on the download data option. Still nothing
well, even my previous sprites are all gone. It was fine and flawless the first time I played it
is says 1.1.2, when i'll install it will update to 6.6.2 ?
what's making me confuse, is the download data need to be turned on to download the missing sprites right ? Isn't that why the long black screen after initiating battle for ?
But the sprites did not load at all. still the "?" sprites.
That's why I asked, where can I just download all the sprites so I don't need to deal with this kind of stuff ?

1.1.2 is the launcher version
oh
Then im confused on how to find individual sprites now. are they not saved within the files and need to be taken from a downloaded sprite pack?
download data being on can cause some loading issues yes
so the installation will be the game itself in 6.6.2
well yeah, I don't mind if it actually downloading the sprites instead of giving me the same "?" result
I saw on reddit people said to just download the preloaded version, but can't find it on the download page ?
preloaded doesn't exist anymore
here's what I will recommend
^do this, and then I can sort you through getting all the sprites
you will need to keep download data off on any/all saves
I already did this
but okay, I'll do this for the 3rd time
since you added sprites already that is why im having you do it again
that way you don't end up with duplicates or needing to replace sprites
just to ask, you are on a pc right?
because if you are on mobile, then you'll need to deal with the sprite shenanigans
as the means of getting all the sprites is NOT recommended for mobile
yes, i'm on pc
oki
once you have the game reinstalled
#spritepack-releases swing to this channel and click the full pack link
follow the guide it has for how to add the fusion sprites to your files
as for base mon sprites
they are tucked away in
Other>BaseSprites
just do what the guide says for fusion sprites to those as well
is it better if i download the light weight or the other launcher ?
either will be fine, but the launcher may get discontinued in the future
so if you don't want to worry as much about redoing all this down the road, lightweight
Just gonna move this in here. Not sure if I made a mistake installing (I miss the manual spritepacks ;~;) but it seems like I'm not the only one with this issue
if you are seeing 2 of the same sprite, but one has a spriter credit, that means the game hasn't downloaded the custom yet
I download the launcher, and after extracting, the "play" button is still there instead of the "install" button
is this supposed to be like that ?
Hello, this is a weird question. I used to play this game all the time and I wanted to get back into it, so I updated my game through the launcher but when I did, all of my sprites were gone, I had a Blastoise pincer and a or oricorio/Gyarados fusion that had a custom fusion Sprite. I even tried re-downloading the game through the lightweight installer and I checked the files. There were no base sprites or anything. Should I just download the custom Sprite pack and do that from now on?
OK, never mind I just uploaded the custom sprites to the sprites to import folder.. and now the game won’t start saying RGSS script stuck.

hi, sorry i'f this is a know problem but this happend to me on the quest and i'm wondering i'f anyone knows what to do in this situation
Re random wilds
yeah I know but it's on the pink berry side quest so there are no pokecenter
Randomizer and Pinkan don’t get along. Only real way (that I’ve seen) to avoid it during the quest is to turn it off until you’re done
would anyone know why my game is not giving me the randomizer setting when i open the gane
Hey @timid osprey! To unlock randomized mode: Create a new game, save in Pallet Town, and create a 2nd new game. More options will appear since the 1st save is locked to Classic Mode.
Our randomizer doesn't offer true randomization meaning each Pokemon or item you find is **not ** going to be random each time. Instead we offer the below for Pokemon:
Global:
- Makes it so that if Pidgey was randomized to Pikachu on route 1, all Pidgeys on all routes are Pikachu.
Area:
- Better randomization than Global. Makes it so that each route has their own randomized set of encounters.
For more questions on other randomizer settings, checkout the Randomized Mode Wiki Page
goated
Can someone help me or give me advice?
if that help is technically inclined, same with the advice
otherwise, this aint the channel for it
now the game freeze
I leave it for an hour and it still like this
it just made it worse

Going to sound weird, but turn off WiFi/internet on your device and try again. For some reason, even though your internet might be working just fine, something about this game clogs it up. Once you are in game, if issue persists, turn off Download Data as well.
^tack this on as well
should NONE of that help, your device is either not up to snuff to run the game properly or is too OP, we can't help either way
^^
it loads the game now but still question marksss
the sprite doesn't load at all
this is really frustating, why it works flawlessly the first time and now it's like this ??
the problem is with the sprite, always the sprite. Is there a reason the preloaded version is not available anymore ?
no, and i gave you the instructions on how to add sprites in
you may need to change the sprite you are using assuming you added them all in
?tag alts
To change a Pokemon's sprite to an alternative one, go to their Pokedex entry (this can be done from their summary screen) and go to the "Sprites" tab. Here you can scroll through the different available sprites.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOY_mxJ-Bx8
I followed every step by step precisely, I add the sprites, o restarted the pc, i turn off and on wifi, i run the game in perfomamce mode, still question marks
No sprites appear at all
To successfully import your own custom sprite, please follow these steps:
Sprite Requirements:
- Format: The sprite must be in
.pngformat. - Naming Convention: Name your sprite according to the game's dex numbering. For example, a fusion of Aegislash and Goodra should be named
329.446.png.
Importing Your Sprite:
- Ensure your sprite meets the criteria above.
- Open your game folder and navigate to
Graphics/CustomBattlers/Sprites to import. - Paste your sprite into this folder.
In-Game Instructions:
- Launch the game.
- The game will automatically detect the new sprites.
- If you have an existing sprite that you're replacing, select the option "Replace All the old sprites with the new ones" when prompted.
Once completed, you can view your custom sprite in-game from the Pokedex's Sprite tab.
^this folder, and make sure it is empty
if it isn't, that means you imported sprites wrong
ok, nvmd i see what the problem is
the guide being used is outdated
@frozen grove i know you are on hiatus and whatnot, but when you get a chance, might want to fix that
What’s outdated?
the guide for manually adding sprites via the full pack
it is still using the old import
where you dump everything into the custombattlers folder
Got it
Text is wrong, image and step title is correct
Missed that in the copypasta 
lol
you'll need to cut all the sprites you shoved into the CustomBattlers folder and paste them inside the Sprites_to_import folder
Done
I thought the guide had been updated, so that is my bad
This is the 4th im doing this exact thing
Tbf, it does show the path in the image and says where to paste. 
There is no “sprites” folder in custombattlers so most people can tell what it was meant to say
Can’t you guys just link me the preloaded or allow me to download the older version if the newer one was buggy like this ?
There isn’t one
So no
We don’t keep an archive of old downloads active either because I’m not gonna pay $$$ for the storage
the closest thing we have to a preloaded download is for extreme cases only, when by all counts, you should be able to run the game but the game is going "no"
The alt download?
ye
That doesn’t even come preloaded with sprites
yes but it has all the sprites in sheets
thus why i said it is the closest thing
i'm fully aware preloaded doesn't exist anymore
It doesn’t have all sprites in sheets either. It has whatever sprites that autodownloaded when I zipped it
This is the right directory right ?? I followed the step instructions
Yes
But also, if its base sprites you’re missing and you’re offline, you’re still gonna be missing the base sprites
Because the pack doesn’t come with base sprites in a way the game can use them
i gave them the instructions on how to add them
that i knew the guide didn't cover, so i figured i would resolve it
The only way to do it would be to individually rename each base sprite, no?
Or did pissmen change how they’re in the pack?
the base sprites are named correctly
all i know is last time i checked, which was i think last month or so, the base sprites that are tucked away are named correctly
so they can just be shoved into the same folder and imported

replace
just a small snippet but
again
for battle, for pokedex as well
try checking the alts, and that is assuming you also grabbed the base sprites
if not, you will need to add those
empty
then you didn't grab the base sprites
like I said to
Full Pack
Other
BaseSprites
cut
paste into Sprites_to_import
Just based on quantity, I can tell they didn’t. Custombattlers has 197,373
Base sprites has 9,048
So yea, missing 9k sprites that they didn’t import
So I haven’t played in a while and I had this cool dugtrio and kabutops fusion and now it’s just gone
assuming the sprite is still in the game
Thx I didn’t know I haven’t played the game in a while
still the same question marks, nothing changed
wait, why it disappear after I launched the game ??
this happened again, I copied the entire thing, than after ilaunched the game, it disappear ?
that means it imported
try checking alts now
what could it be then ? The first time I played this game it works all so flawlessly no trouble at all
