Pokemon Infinite Fusion: 15 Beginner Tips Before You Start

The 3 most important beginner tips for Pokemon Infinite Fusion are: download it only from official sources, back up your save, and always check both fusion orders. Here are 15 tips for your first playthrough, from setup to the post-game, based on the official fan wiki and the current version, 6.7.2.

Before You Play

  1. Download only from PokéCommunity or the official Discord. The game has no official website, and other download sites can be outdated or unsafe. Follow the download guide.
  2. Install with INSTALL_OR_UPDATE.bat and run the same file to update on version 6.6.0 or newer.
  3. Back up your save. Saves are in the infinitefusion folder inside AppData/Roaming, and the game folder has a shortcut to it. Turn on autosave in the options.
  4. Learn the controls with F1. C confirms, B cancels and opens the menu, and the turbo key speeds the game up with 3 speeds.

Choosing a Game Mode

  1. Start with Classic mode for the standard story. Remix mode changes trainer teams, and Randomizer mode randomizes the Pokemon you meet.
  2. Turn on level caps if you want a fair challenge or a Nuzlocke run.

Fusion Basics

  1. Buy DNA Splicers at any Poke Mart. Use one on 2 Pokemon and choose which one is the head and which is the body. Use it again to unfuse.
  2. Check both orders. The head gives Type 1 and leads HP, Sp. Atk and Sp. Def; the body gives Type 2 and leads Attack, Defense and Speed. Test both in the Infinite Fusion Calculator before you splice.
  3. Remember the Normal/Flying rule. Normal/Flying Pokemon only pass on Flying: Pidgeot + Charizard is Flying/Fire, and Gengar + Pidgeot is Ghost/Flying.
  4. Pick the ability and nature when you fuse; you can choose from both Pokemon.

Evolution and Travel

  1. Trade evolutions use levels or items. Kadabra, Machoke, Graveler and Haunter evolve at level 40 or with a Linking Cord. Eevee evolves into Espeon with a Sun Stone and into Umbreon with a Moon Stone.
  2. Teleport works like Fly outside battle: it takes you to any Pokemon Center you have visited.
  3. Get the Quest Journal from the man at the top of the stairs in any hotel to track side quests.

Battles and the Post-Game

  1. Plan for Gym limits. In Gym battles you can only use as many Pokemon as the Gym Leader has. Johto's Morty uses a Dark/Ghost fusion with Wonder Guard, which only super-effective moves such as Fairy moves can hit. See every Gym in the map guide.
  2. Talk to the man in black on the second floor of a Pokemon Center and choose "Fix game" if something breaks.

After the Pokemon League, Johto beyond Goldenrod City and the Sevii Islands open up. Triple fusions come in the late post-game; read Triple Fusions Explained.
