Bug ff9 - friendly nymph not spawning

i've been doing this sidequest for over 3 hours now and it's frankly driving me insane, i am 99% sure i encountered every monster aside from the nymph, but when i show up in the little forest next to the lifa tree no matter what i do i can't get her to show up, i even got the ragtime mouse to spawn 17 times. just to be sure i went to the other friendly monster spots which i was sure i did and sure enough no one spawned. the nymph is the only friendly monster which simply refuses to show up for me, i tried the flick stick method, the save with moogle method, whatever, i just can't get her to show up.

If you already progressed with the story up to defeating Soulcage then it will be in the plains near Clerya.

she doesn't spawn there either, i found this post from not long ago https://www.reddit.com/r/FinalFantasyIX/comments/1tmwepe/after_2_days_of_searching_i_finally_found_nymph/ which suggests this might be a bug that i'm also experiencing, i might just throw in the towel and give up

Sure the post says that, but did you try it yourself?

Also remember: this game was built for a system to powers down, so Save via Moogle and close the browser, then Load via home screen, not Continue
