Answer 1

You need to call the method findNavController passing the view ID NavHostFragment. That is, in the method configNavDrawer, instead of:

val navController = findNavController(R.id.main_activity_bottom_navigation)

place:

val navController = findNavController(R.id.pokemons_activity_nav_host)
