explore: don't hide the player (fixes glitchy orphaned Pikachu)
Hiding the player left the Yellow Pikachu follower visible and chasing an
invisible player -- that's the 'glitchy sprite', and with no visible player the
movement looked like it wasn't responding. Reverted the UpdatePlayerSprite hide
hook. EXPLORE is now a plain visible noclip ghost-walk: you (and Pikachu) glide
through walls and across map seams, and control is obvious. Verified tap-by-tap
movement in every direction, through Pallet's fence.
