>>57447723First of all, I had to reread your post a few times to decypher it and I still am not sure if I understand it properly.
Second, Gyro controls are native to the game and the intended way to play.
I'm also forced to play on sticks on emulator due to how my PC controller works and I still find the game fun (if anything, sticks make catching those pokémon that fly in circles like Crobat in the icelands easier because it forces your aim to stand completely still, so they're not rendered completely useless by gyro). PLA is a lot like a weird shooting game when you get to the catching mechanics and in many ways I find it a weird spawn of some of the ideas found in Snap.
