:gear: Adjustment for Target Pokémon

The macro is configurable depending on which Pokémon you want to hunt.

The initial setup is configured for Porygon.

Adjust the following steps based on your target:

  • Abra → set steps 17, 19, 21, 23 from D-Pad Down to D-Pad None
  • Clefairy (Piepi) → set steps 19, 21, 23 from D-Pad Down to D-Pad None
  • Pinsir / Scyther (Sichlor) → set steps 21, 23 from D-Pad Down to D-Pad None
