Create seed data for the database with initial games, routes, and Pokémon.

## Checklist
- [ ] Research and compile data for MVP games:
  - [ ] Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen (Gen 3 Kanto remakes - popular for Nuzlockes)
  - [ ] Pokémon Emerald (Gen 3 Hoenn)
  - [ ] Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver (Gen 4 Johto remakes)
- [ ] For each game, gather:
  - [ ] All routes/areas in progression order
  - [ ] Available wild Pokémon per route
  - [ ] Encounter methods (grass, surf, fish, etc.)
- [ ] Create seed scripts/migrations to populate database
- [ ] Include Pokémon base data (national dex, names, types, sprite URLs)
- [ ] Document data sources for attribution

## Notes
- Use PokeAPI or Bulbapedia as data sources
- Admin panel allows adding more games later
- Focus on accuracy for the 3 MVP games
- Sprite URLs can point to existing sprite repositories
