This game is so great already, I love pokemon 💕 (Why is my pokemon named United States of America? 0\_0)  
Anyway, this bug is happening because you have three ways to trigger that battle:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/7/b/7bb2c2ebb854f08f1ffcd765d9d8c37156555f45.png)  
So, I started by consolidating the code into one function to make it easier to code with:  
 ![Screenshot 2025-12-08 165954](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/6/a/6a8bf88fafae089fd3a1a9de71b4aa5a98bd489d.png)  
Then I used this block to move the camera:  
 ![Screenshot 2025-12-08 170013](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/9/0/9029a7a32c88aa18ce0be2b1683b2f768edf3e9f.png)  
The reason you couldn’t see the pokemon before is because the camera was still following the player. (While the sprites were in the top left corner, the player was hundreds of pixels away)  
[Here’s the fixed code](https://arcade.makecode.com/S20310-19659-64225-57011), let me know if this works! ^v^

thanks so much I was losing my mind

also if ur wondering why ur pokemon is named STATES OF AMERICA is cause my mascot is named STATES OF AMERICA so I decided to put him in this game also this is not the full release it’ll come soon!

How do I get to the transition (ex. What person should I talk to, what scenario does the transition occur in)?

I’m so sorry for my lateness! [Here’s my fix,](https://arcade.makecode.com/S97019-54601-03669-52616) thank you for the reminder. The bug was likely that you have to put the blur extension blocks in a timer ‘separately do’ block, because otherwise they pause the entire game, including the visuals.
