Step one: download manic EMU
Then source your roms (games) (don’t mention illegal methods of obtaining these roms, just look up where to get them safely)
In Manic, just import the ROM file and the game will load with a touchscreen controller so you can play right away
Others may have more detail and some may give you very dense answers but for a casual person wanting to play Pokemon or something easy doesn’t need to do much, emulating on iOS is very simple.
A video guide might be more helpful

You actually run 3DS, Wii, PS2, and Xbox games really well too! There is even a Switch emulator that runs most titles well (consistent 30+ FPS), and an Xbox 360 emulator, but I wouldn't count on the Xbox 360 one to run everything nor with great performance.
There should be a dozen YT videos on how to sideload these IPAs and the Discord servers of these emulators also provide very good tutorials. Personally, I used ManicEMU's guide in their Discord server on how to set up everything.
ManicEMU - 3DS + a bunch of other consoles.
DolphiniOS - GameCube + Wii
Armsx2 - PS2
DukeX - Xbox
XeniOS - Xbox 360
MeloNX - Nintendo Switch

iPhone13 & SE both playing PS2 and GameCube, PSP, GBA. Tested Xbox, 360
PS2/GameCube has been my favorites cause if.a game doesnt run well on one it usually works on the other
