Add option to randomize encounters	todo	feature	2026-02-07T21:08:27Z	2026-02-07T21:08:27Z

Add an option to randomly select 1 Pokemon per location/encounter. This is primarily for open-world games (like Legends: Arceus, Legends: Z-A) where Pokemon are visible in the overworld rather than found through random encounters, but could also be used for other games.

Checklist

• Add UI toggle or button to randomize encounters when starting or managing a run
• Implement random selection logic: pick 1 Pokemon per location from the available encounter list
• Ensure the randomized selection respects existing Nuzlocke rules (dupes clause, etc.)
