Is there a way to download a ROM that already comes with this patch on it? I wanna put it on some bootleg portable console.

I want to know how to play the real thing with a gyro controller.
In mGBA You can map it to an analog input, and have gyro be an analog input with steam input. But it didn't work right on my Steam Deck.
You should try making a post about it. As I could see by my post, people here are very helpful!
I have gigantic archives of pre-patched Roms on Internet Archive; that is Roms with the patch on it already. But I can't link it here I think. The problem is, distributing them counts as piracy, because it contains the game itself. That's why you see the patch files distributed like on Romhackplaza.org and Romhacking.net .
Well, thanks, I'll begin adding Viralsach links to my next posts about game downloads then.
Sometimes you can find pre-patched ROMs, but it's rare.
Patching a ROM yourself is pretty easy though. In this case, the site you linked has a patching tool built-in. Just download and select "patch" then upload the original ROM.
While patching yourself is easy, one has to make sure to have the correct unpatched Rom file. With patch files like in .bps format this is not a concern (in the sense that it contains an internal checksum and the program will prevent from applying it to the wrong Rom), but with the other common format .ips there is no check in builtin. This is just a heads up warning to check and make sure to have the correct Rom file. Filename alone is not sufficient for identification.
My goto patcher is https://www.marcrobledo.com/RomPatcher.js/ . I recommend on the bottom page to click the "Settings" and enable option "Fix ROM checksum".
I can't find said patching tool, where is it?
Is there a reason you can't just patch it yourself?
Well, I share a bedroom with my brother and there is no space for my own computer. The only computer in my room is my mom's and she doesn't let me use it.
Unipatcher is on f-droid and probably google play.

I imagine you can do this on your phone, if necessary.
Hey, it worked perfectly! Thanks for the help, thank you very much!
Probably, but telling you where to find it would be illegal in many countries (depending on instance country and applicable law, hosting comments or messages containing such information could be considered copyright infringement). Patching your own legally obtained ROM is pretty easy, though.
Just send it to me via viralsach
