💼 Starters Mode

Soft resets for starter Pokémon.

• For modes that use soft resets such as starters, the bot will track RNG to ensure a unique frame is hit after every reset, this is to prevent repeatedly generating an identical Pokémon, this will cause soft resets to take progressively longer over time
• If resets begin to take too long, it is recommended to start a new save file with a different TID to reset this delay or check out 💎 Cheats (random_soft_reset_rng)
• Note: For the time being, Johto starters will automatically enable the starters option in 💎 Cheats, the shininess of the starter is checked via memhacks as start menu navigation is WIP (in future, shininess will be checked via the party summary menu)
