Performance Issues - Freezing? Lag? Long Black/Loading Screens? First try restarting the game. If the issue persists, [Click Here!](#tech-support message)

^steps 2-7, do what you can

#

#

For never ending loading screens, try turning 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. For Android users, you may also need to turn off your mobile data.

Note: When you are disconnected from the internet, sprites will not be automatically downloaded resulting in missing sprites. If the game will only work offline for you, you may need to download and import the newest full spritepack from #spritepack-releases. Do NOT download the pack if you plan on also playing while connected to the internet. The spritepacks are also NOT meant to be imported on Android devices!

verbal timber
#

^tack this on should none of that help

#

if all else fails there is nothing that can be done to recitfy your issue as the game was never made for mobile [it was never made for anything outside windows pcs; all other guides are work arounds]

Hmm second attempt at installing this time went much smoother but still getting this error when i try to launch the game latest version installed maybe five minutes ago using a nothing phone 2a plus (whilst not specifically on the supported list the 2a is)

#

the error isn't one i've seen before

#

and android is always a bit weird

#

you're welcome to try again, yeet the files [zips and all] to try again but should you get this again, there's nothing we can do

Is that the wrong filepath?

#

These trashed files shouldn't be there

#

Oh should i delete those

little lodge
#

Do a full reinstall. I feel like something f'd up when extracting

fading cliff
#

Oh

little lodge
#

I cannot confirm nor deny as I am not an android expert but those trash files make me think something went horribly wrong

#

When extracting

rigid silo
#

looks like a corrupted extract, resulting in android marking said files for deletion.

little lodge
#

So my gut was correct. Neat

fading cliff
#

Okay i tried to delete those files but they just went to a bin but not really is fixed now was a fuck up i made and tried to delete first time i installed

In Remix Mode, in Blaine’s gym, his Machgross hit my Pokémon even though I used Phantom Force. It had Guts with a Flame Orb, but it acted like it had No Guard or something, because once it got burned it started doing very little damage.

im missing a specific sprite from spritepack 118, should i manually install the spritepack? the guide says to only do it if recommended here

little lodge
vagrant shadow
#

i tried clearing the cache through help guy but it didnt work

little lodge
#

Alright. Yeah then download the sprite from the pack, discord or calcs and import it in

vagrant shadow
#

just drag and drop the specific file to "sprites to import right?

pearl magnetBOT
#

To successfully import your own custom sprite, please follow these steps:

Sprite Requirements:

  1. Format: The sprite must be in .png format.
  2. 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:

  1. Ensure your sprite meets the criteria above.
  2. Open your game folder and navigate to Graphics/CustomBattlers/Sprites to import.
  3. Paste your sprite into this folder.

In-Game Instructions:

  1. Launch the game.
  2. The game will automatically detect the new sprites.
  3. 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.

Hey, may i ask something? Why is my charmander spriteless? and why did i get the Bad egg clothes and glitched mask?

pearl magnetBOT

REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES:

NOTE: If you are offline and cannot play the game online, download the newest spritepack from #spritepack-releases (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

If you have seen even a single custom or base sprite for any pokemon:

Do this first: navigate to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Otherwise, your game is fine and working properly! The game can only download a limited number of sprites while playing before going on cooldown, you have simply hit the download cap for now.
If you still feel like your sprites are not download, ensure that you have your "download data" option enabled and your device is connected to the internet.

If you have not seen even a single sprite for any pokemon:
Your game is not working properly!
Step 1. Ensure you're on the latest version (check your title screen and compare with #downloads)
Step 2. Ensure you have a good internet connection.
Step 3. Check your options in a save, turn on "download data" if it was turned off.
Step 4. If that did not fix it: head to a pokecenter > talk to the man in a black suit with sunglasses and navigate to Sprite Settings and select "Reset sprite cache" & "Reset displayed alt sprites".
Step 5. If that did not fix it, delete any game or launcher folders and do a full reinstall.
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

If for some reason none of this works, type ?tag altdownload in #ask-a-bot and reinstall using those files (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

and the bad egg outfit is just an outfit you get when youre missing sprites

golden orbit
#

Oh thank you. I was worried for a sec.. thought i did some crazy gamebreaking thing.

#

Does this missing sprite correlate to the lag? Because my game is.. very laggy, to say.

How to restore to a backup save

This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+

  1. Open your game folder
  2. Double click SaveFile
  3. Double click the folder named backups
  4. Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex: File A
  5. Rename the most recent file to File A.rxdata (The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot)
  6. 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

So uh... I may have accidentally broken the game somehow, and I don't know how to fix it. sifUm The full story of what happened, if it helps , is that I went to the Move Teacher in Saffron with a Krookodile, exited out of the menu without teaching any moves, and then I went to another Pokemon in my party and selected them. Now it throws this error at me every time I attempt to use the Move Teacher's services.

#

I tried going to the Help Man so he could reset my parameters, but that didn't do anything to fix the problem.

#

Then try again

outer lodge
#

Ok

#

I did that, and it still doesn't work

I can't update to 6.7.2. The updater says 'Data/Scripts/052_InfiniteFusion/Quests' failed

#

Hey @delicate sky!

How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)

  • If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat to 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 reshuffle if you need help.

For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post

Device: Windows 11 Laptop

Version: 6.7.2

I forgot where exactly I got my game files from, but I'd be willing to bet I got them from here

Description of Issue+Steps for Reproduction: The game crashes upon selecting a Pokemon to be taught moves by the Move Teacher. It probably sounds self-explanatory, but to reproduce it, you simply go try and teach a pokemon a move via the Move Teacher.

What I Was Doing In Game: I was at the Saffron City Pokemon Center trying to to use the Move Teacher to get my Krookodile better moves. It worked once as expected, though I didn't have any moves taught before exiting the move menu for said pokemon. After exiting the menu, it crashes the game after selecting a Pokemon unless I have gone and taught them a TM.

Attached is the error message I get whenever I run into this problem

#

Alright, there's the information

i did a fresh install yesterday since i haven't played in a long time but now i keep getting an error when i try to randomize the game.

turbid terraceBOT

Hey @unkempt holly! 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.

Whenever I’m in full screen it gets super pixelated is there anyway to fix that?

pearl magnetBOT
#

Using the in-game option for Full Screen can strain your graphics card and lead to Graphics issues, flashing, green lines, and more.

We recommend setting the Screen Size option to a lower setting and dragging the corners of the window to make the screen larger instead for computers having issues.
You can also try updating your Graphics Drivers and seeing if that helps with certain graphical issues.

Use our alt download that has the game already installed for you without needing to run the installer. These files 100% work and come preloaded with the most recent spritesheets.

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

  1. Delete your old launcher folder.
  2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
  3. Open the settings tab
  4. 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 in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
  5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

  1. Delete your old game folder.
  2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

Good evening. I would like to report that I just encountered a bug. I am putting the message in a spoiler because it concerns the capture of one of the legendary Pokémon.

#

||It's about the quest to capture Cresselia and Darkrai. I followed the wiki, and I got to the point where I had to choose between following Cresselia's path and Darkrai's path. I chose Cresselia's path and did what needed to be done. Cresselia gave me the new feather and asked me to put it in the bed on her island. The problem is, I can't interact with the bed. I can get into it, but I can't put the feather down. So I chose Darkrai's path (staying on the same save file, I didn't reset it). I got the corrupted feather, I put it on Darkrai's bed, but the game acts as if it were Cresselia's. So now I have Cresselia and I'm in the process of capturing Darkrai.||

Do this first: navigate to the help man in the Pokecenter and go to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Otherwise, your game is fine and working properly! The game can only download a limited number of sprites while playing before going on cooldown, you have simply hit the download cap for now.
If you still feel like your sprites are not download, ensure that you have your "download data" option enabled and your device is connected to the internet.

If you have not seen even a single sprite for any pokemon:
Your game is not working properly!
Step 1. Ensure you're on the latest version (check your title screen and compare with #downloads)
Step 2. Ensure you have a good internet connection.
Step 3. Check your options in a save, turn on "download data" if it was turned off.
Step 4. If that did not fix it: head to a pokecenter > talk to the man in a black suit with sunglasses and navigate to Sprite Settings and select "Reset sprite cache" & "Reset displayed alt sprites".
Step 5. If that did not fix it, delete any game or launcher folders and do a full reinstall.
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

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:

  1. 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 named Savefile to take you to the location to delete all save files. They are named File A.rxdata.
  2. Delete any zipped/unzipped folders from there
  3. Run a virus scan

After doing all the steps, use #downloads to download the real files.

If your game is opening and immediately closing, you likely need to do a full reinstall in a new folder. You should be deleting all of your old game/launcher folders! DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW FILES!

Reinstalling on Windows does not affect Save Files in any way. For all other platforms, refer to the installation guides for your device!

For windows only!

If you're using the Launcher:

  1. Delete your old launcher folder.
  2. Reinstall version 1.1.2 of the launcher from HERE (Yes, even if you're already on 1.1.2)
  3. Open the settings tab
  4. 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 in PIFLauncher(#.#.#)/GameFiles/InfiniteFusion
  5. Install/Update the game files.

If you're not using the Launcher:

  1. Delete your old game folder.
  2. Reinstall the Lightweight installer in a NEW folder from Here

If you are on a non-Windows device, follow the [guide](#tech-support message) for your device to reinstall.

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:

  1. Explain the issue. When is the issue happening? What were you doing when the issue occurred? Do not just say "Game won't work"! This does not help us at all!
  2. Where did you get the game files from? (Discord, links from discord, website, etc.?)
  3. Are you using the Launcher?
  4. Did you update from old files or install in a new folder?
  5. What version are you on? (Open the game, title screen says. Do not just say latest version!)
  6. What device are you playing on? (Windows Home/Pro, Android, Mac, etc.)
  7. 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.

Can anyone help with the gamepad controls for android? The Android controls only list 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. buttons, but I'm not sure how they map to typical controls like 2nd button quick scrolls, 3rd button is back, etc. Is there a explanation of that for easier Android button mapping? The PIF: Official Android Guide was very unclear to me. (I attached the images from the "how to change controls" section of the PIF Official Android guide)

Hey @primal birch! You can press F1 (FN + F1 on laptops) to change your keybindings!

Be aware, controllers will be auto mapped to buttons depending on which controller you plug in.

If you want to remap buttons on controller, you need to use Steam since this game doesn't support it. How to use Steam: [Guide](#tech-support message)

So I've put all of the custom sprites into the folder, and some of them definitely show up in game, but a lot of them don't? As an example, the Darkrai/Hydreigon fusion has the default 347.377 and 347.377a sprites show up, but not 347.377b - any reason why that last one doesn't show up? And any fix available?

the olddata info clearly says what to do, you need to yeet your old files for the game [not your saves since they are separate] and get a fresh download of new files

That’s exactly what I did, I got rid of absolutely everything and redownloaded everything. Then redownloaded the piflauncher

exotic willow
#

@verbal timber have this loading screen when I try to run the game but it kicks me out

#

the pif launcher is the game

so I'm confused by what you mean when you say you downloaded everything and then downloaded the launcher

#

those are counter intuitive statements

-The launcher shortcut

verbal timber
noble drum
#

That is that isn’t working correctly

verbal timber
#

the launcher has been weird since 6.6

#

and may get discontinued in the future

verbal timber
#

by clean install I mean you deleted what you downloaded, restarted your device to yeet any remnant files and got a fresh download of the files and redid the install

exotic willow
#

@verbal timber I will try that

verbal timber
#

if the issue persists, it may be your device isn't properly compatible with the current game version

noble drum

or possible permission shenanigans

there's a reason why we say to keep it in downloads on your main drive

Hey, I've a weird niche question:

I'm battling a trainer's Golduck/Totodile (Lv. 16) in the Mt. Moon cave with my own Shroomish/Wimpod (Lv. 20).

The Goldile is currently Paralysed.

When I attempt to poison it using Poison Spore, I am told the poison does not affect the Goldile.

This is despite the fact it has no ability or item - that I know of or can find - that renders it immune.

Is this intentional? Is there something I'm missing?

importing things yourself leaves you with these. that is just how it works.
because importing is technically only meant for "personal" sprites. so all the official ones still have their entry.

you imported everything, thus have a duplicate entry for everything

one empty official but with the credit, one filled but without artist because you imported it as a "personal" sprite.

How to restore to a backup save

This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+

  1. Open your game folder
  2. Double click SaveFile
  3. Double click the folder named backups
  4. Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex: File A
  5. Rename the most recent file to File A.rxdata (The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot)
  6. 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

I just saw a video about pif hoenn on my phone with some incorrect Info and I just made like 20 comments fixing wrong info so people don't get confused or download fake versions of the game

#

Yayyyyyyyyy

little lodge
#

Did you see the website Gastly posted in the pory chat XD

pale pine
#

Alot of them thought it was already out and a full game already cause the guy never mentioned it's a demo in progress

pale pine
#

That's gonna be fun

little lodge
#

At least if someone pops into the discord and wonders why their hoenn isn't working we know the exact answer

pale pine
#

Yeah

#

Should I send a message in helper chat about the fact content creators have started making vids about hoenn

Hey @nimble grotto!

How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)

  • If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat to 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 reshuffle if you need help.

For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post

To fix crashes on specific trainers in legendary mode:

  1. Leave the area (if in a building, go outside)
  2. Toggle trainers from classic to remix (or vice versa)
  3. Go back to that trainer and try again.
  4. After the battle, you may change the trainers back to their original setting.

If you get a different crash when you toggle the trainers, try moving to a different area.

Welp, not loading sprites.

#

I tried using the Sprites Packs AND download sprites

rigid silo
pearl magnetBOT
#

REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES:

NOTE: If you are offline and cannot play the game online, download the newest spritepack from #spritepack-releases (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

If you have seen even a single custom or base sprite for any pokemon:

Do this first: navigate to the help man in the Pokecenter and go to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Otherwise, your game is fine and working properly! The game can only download a limited number of sprites while playing before going on cooldown, you have simply hit the download cap for now.
If you still feel like your sprites are not download, ensure that you have your "download data" option enabled and your device is connected to the internet.

If you have not seen even a single sprite for any pokemon:
Your game is not working properly!
Step 1. Ensure you're on the latest version (check your title screen and compare with #downloads)
Step 2. Ensure you have a good internet connection.
Step 3. Check your options in a save, turn on "download data" if it was turned off.
Step 4. If that did not fix it: head to a pokecenter > talk to the man in a black suit with sunglasses and navigate to Sprite Settings and select "Reset sprite cache" & "Reset displayed alt sprites".
Step 5. If that did not fix it, delete any game or launcher folders and do a full reinstall.
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

If for some reason none of this works, type ?tag altdownload in #ask-a-bot and reinstall using those files (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

north moth
#

none of these are working.

rigid silo
#

follow those instructions, read them carefully.

I'm new to all this so this is probably a silly issue, but-
i updated the game (or at least i think that's what I did?) and now all of my fusions are missing their unique sprites. what's up with that and what can i do about it?

For missing sprites after updating, talk to the help man in any Pokémon center and navigate to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Hey guys, I'm probably just being pretty stupid but I'm having a weird issue where my pc wont let me run the game. I extracted it and ran both of the .exe files and it told me I need a graphics card that supports OpenGL 2.0 or later... issue is I'm running a 9070xt which i'm pretty sure does at least from what I saw online. I played this game on a previous pc build with an Nvidia card so thats about the only thing that I can think.

rigid silo
#

Either the drivers are totally outdated / you dont even have opengl installed (kinda doubt this, as even the base driver for that card, which I also run, would have it)

Orrrr the game is trying to run on your integrated graphics.

#

First step would be updating drivers. Thats good to do once in a while anyway.

After that, if it isnt fixed, check/set the graphics device the game is prioritizing. Google will be your friend for that

Hi! Haven't played since 5.2.1 and I had it locally downloaded and it ran perfectly before.
Recently Downloading the latest version so I can update and launcher works perfectly, Where I can still play the game, but all of my fusion sprites i've seen are completely gone or missing, making my team the default generated ones instead of the custom sprites. (At the time was 1-90)

Importing the sprites locally also does not seem to help, as doing all of them causes it to be stuck on the black screen for a prolongue period of time, not working after dozens of minutes. I dont know why it worked completely fine before in the older version but is now just completely not working now.

Hey @proper adder! 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.

pearl magnetBOT

After any new game update, you need to rerandomize the settings you have enabled.

If you have only pokemon randomized, you need to Reshuffle Wild Pokemon. If you have more options, reshuffle each.

This is done in the Pokemon Center -> Update Man (guy in black suit) -> Click Advanced Settings -> You will see the Reshuffle options

For never ending loading screens, try turning 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. For Android users, you may also need to turn off your mobile data.

Note: When you are disconnected from the internet, sprites will not be automatically downloaded resulting in missing sprites. If the game will only work offline for you, you may need to download and import the newest full spritepack from #spritepack-releases. Do NOT download the pack if you plan on also playing while connected to the internet. The spritepacks are also NOT meant to be imported on Android devices!

Hey @crimson helm!

How to Update to the Latest Version (Windows)

  • If you're on or above 6.6.0 double click INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat to 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 reshuffle if you need help.

For Non-Windows devices (Android, Mac, Steamdeck, Linux, Chromebook): Check our extended guides post

How to restore to a backup save

This only works if you had Auto Save turned on and using 6.4+

  1. Open your game folder
  2. Double click SaveFile
  3. Double click the folder named backups
  4. Double click the folder of the save slot you’re reverting. Ex: File A
  5. Rename the most recent file to File A.rxdata (The letter will be different if you’re reverting a different save slot)
  6. 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

For missing sprites after updating, talk to the help man in any Pokémon center and navigate to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

If your sprites are still missing, check the pinned message in #tech-support titled “REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES”.

For never ending loading screens, try turning 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. For Android users, you may also need to turn off your mobile data.

Note: When you are disconnected from the internet, sprites will not be automatically downloaded resulting in missing sprites. If the game will only work offline for you, you may need to download and import the newest full spritepack from #spritepack-releases. Do NOT download the pack if you plan on also playing while connected to the internet. The spritepacks are also NOT meant to be imported on Android devices!

Hey @molten orbit! You cannot install this game on iPhone or iPad. This game is not a ROM Hack so Delta won't work and we are not planning to release an iOS version.

tame zenith
#

Okay so it definitely runs now but I now have no sprites? There all masive question makes lol

?tag altdownload || I’d recommend reinstalling with this rather than download the packs however

pearl magnetBOT

Alt Download

Use our alt download that has the game already installed for you without needing to run the installer. These files 100% work and come preloaded with the most recent spritesheets. No need to transfer files/saves to this at all. If these files are still giving you issues, the issue is on your end, not the game files: ➡️ More Info

REGARDING SPRITE ISSUES:

NOTE: If you are offline and cannot play the game online, download the newest spritepack from #spritepack-releases (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

If you have seen even a single custom or base sprite for any pokemon:

Do this first: navigate to the help man in the Pokecenter and go to Sprite Options -> Clear Sprite Cache.

Otherwise, your game is fine and working properly! The game can only download a limited number of sprites while playing before going on cooldown, you have simply hit the download cap for now.
If you still feel like your sprites are not download, ensure that you have your "download data" option enabled and your device is connected to the internet.

If you have not seen even a single sprite for any pokemon:
Your game is not working properly!
Step 1. Ensure you're on the latest version (check your title screen and compare with #downloads)
Step 2. Ensure you have a good internet connection.
Step 3. Check your options in a save, turn on "download data" if it was turned off.
Step 4. If that did not fix it: head to a pokecenter > talk to the man in a black suit with sunglasses and navigate to Sprite Settings and select "Reset sprite cache" & "Reset displayed alt sprites".
Step 5. If that did not fix it, delete any game or launcher folders and do a full reinstall.
Step 6. After reinstalling, repeat step 4.

If for some reason none of this works, type ?tag altdownload in #ask-a-bot and reinstall using those files (NOT APPLICABLE FOR ANDROID)

Um hey

I encountered a battle and suddenly this is a black screen

Hey @zenith sun! 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.
  • Use our performance tips to help your issues: [More Info](#tech-support message)⬅️⬅️

Technically it is a loading screen. It’s trying to load in the sprites
