I didn't learn this until after my first thousand or so resets. I switched to L + R + A + B and got it after a further 4000 or so. but to specifically address your question if you are just turning it off once in a while, you should still be hitting different frames for the most part. for me, I wouldn't shut it off, I left it on standby the entire hunt
