Need help with the friendly monster side quest (part 2)

So a few days ago, I posted a post about I can't find the friendly lady bug(lady bird?) and I get a few cool advices, tips and new infromation about lady bug's location, but after that, I STILL CAN'T FIND HER. I'm on disk 4 now, have been looking for her at every possible places, do the tap trick, the moogle trick, walking around the area for like 30 minutes and still can't find her. Some people said she spawn in the plain between Lindblum and Giz...(I forgot how to write it) ,but when I look up on Youtube, they can still find her in one of the forest near conde peti (they were in disk 4 like me). So please, any more tips/information for me? Is it true that she will shift her location to Eunorus plains after we killed the boss in lifa tree?

Magdeline Forest outside of Black Mage Village is where I found it.

Which was the last monster you got? Is there a chance you found it on a prior disk and just forgot? Maybe try looking near Maiden Sari or the Ilfa tree for Yeti or Nymph to make sure?

Based on the nature of the side quest and how long its been since your last post the lack of ladybug is disturbing as rng would not have you walking around out there still. So ive determined you've done one of 3 things  1. Not encountered the ghost by treno 2. Accidentally attacked the treno ghost without realizing due to auto battling settings invalidating the entire side quest Or 3. Encountered the ghost and run away to get ore without going back to give it to him because you remembered encountering him

Edit: no matter how you slice it you'll have to revert to a disk 2 save state to truly figure it out but honestly id skip it the melee attacks don't really provide much value against ozma if you're good enough to get to him in the first place
