Oops! All mimikyu

Im starting my first proper run tomorrow after starting one and not finishing it (I couldnt get past the second rival fight near misty's gym.) So, I need yalls help with 2 things. Locations for specific Pokémon, and helpful advice.

Firstly, advice. I havent played a Pokémon game before, I am brand new. Im gonna study the type chart tonight and go over game mechanics and all that good stuff, but getting tips straight from the community would be greatly appreciated.

The second thing is specific encounter locations. Im going into this with a goal in mind: To construct a team of eldritch horrors because I love edgy aesthetics. So, i wanna hunt down specific Pokémon to add to my team.

Starting with a twofer: Mimikyu and Slaking (mimiking if you will). I saw it in an alpharad video and I WANT IT.

The second big goal is Gengar. Genuinely my favorite Pokémon of all time and I wanna add him to my team.

Thirdly, Bisharp. Is he going on the team? Probably not. Is he one of my favorite designs for a Pokémon? Yes. And thus i want him.

And lastly, Aegaslash (im sorry sword Pokémon fans, I cannot spell his name for the life of me). The amount of cool fusions I could make with this sword is, dare I say, infinite.

Also, if you have any reccomendations for eldritch abominations that are also strong enough to take down the Elite four, please let me know?

Itachi is my main goal pls help me
Any Naruto’s fusions or anime fusion tho too pls🙏

Everywhere says in crimson city north of bills but the shops don’t have them and neither do any of the NPCs.

Im simply sharing my artwork here. I love fusing pokemons so much

Arbok and Tyranitar are favorites from now on 🔥🔥

Noivern Parasect

Whimscicott Diancie

Tentacruel Bisharp

Ho-Oh Trevenant

Chesnaught Necrozma

Talonflame Cacturn

I’ve been playing non stop during my free time. All the sprites and fusions are so cool props to all the artists and devs behind the game.
1st - 1st play though
2nd - Nuzlocke
3rd - Remix mode (2v2)

Okay so I beat the game on this save file like a year and a half ago, and at the time every Pokémon had custom/different sprites aside from zubat fusion. Now today when I booted up the game all their sprites are gone and I can’t find them in the sprite select. So far I’ve tried fixer npc in poke center, turning automatic sprite downld off and on again and restarting the game. If anyone knows what happened or how to fix it I would greatly appreciate it.

P.s. yes I downloaded off the discord
