    I'm having this error whenever I open a dex entry in the Pokedex.
    [PokeCommunity.com] Pokedex Entry Error
    My Pokedex is a custom made one using all of the National Pokemon plus 5 fanmakes. I can open the dex and view the list of Pokemon just fine, but when I view a single entry this error just appears. It's really annoying me so if you know what's going on please let me know.
     
    Go to your game save file in Saved Games on your PC, and delete the savefile.

    This happens because your proejct is called Essentials and there's another save file with that name. If you're going to make a new game, you should change your project's name

    I did change my projects name, it's called Pokemon Regalia. This problem still occurs even when I start a new save file to. I don't know what's going on.

    Are you using anything like a BWDex mod or something? And do those pokémon have their graphics por front, back and icon?

    I'm not using any dex mods and the custom pokes have all their graphics, except for their shiny sprites. Could that be why?

    I'm not sure, you can least try, but I don't think that's going to be the problem...What are your settings on the region map?

    Uh, do you mean the text file where my towns and routes are? If those aren't the settings you're talking about then where do I find my map settings.

    Are you sure that ALL Pokemon have their icon sprites in the "Graphics/Icons/" folder, and that they are all named correctly (e.g. "icon000.png", "icon001.png", etc.)? Because the error is saying it can't find the icon file for whatever Pokemon you're looking at. Also make sure that the folder itself is in the correct location (an "Icons" subfolder within the main "Graphics" folder). You mentioned that your custom Pokemon don't have shiny sprites, which could possibly be the issue.

    Every pokemon has their sprite in the icons folder, as I checked. However, the shiny sprites are possibly whats causing this error yeah. I'm going to add their shinies then see whats going on.
