TLDR: If I'm standing still in Pokemon Go, how far can I catch a pokemon?
I want to start using this app at work https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pokemon-go-spawn-notifica/iklagoflgdhdicifcpjnlcjphibhebdo/related It will notify me when a Pokemon is near.
Thing is the 500m default range shows much more pokemon than I can catch without moving. (I can't move because I'm working)
So what should be the range I put in that application to have notifications only for pokemon who spawn and that I can catch without leaving work?

From this post, Pokemon will only appear if they are within 50 meters of you.
This post supports that number as well.
