Track the work needed to audit and complete encounter data and route ordering across all supported games. Covers automated source exploration, Gen 8+ stub population, ORAS/Let's Go completion, route ordering for Gen 5+, Gen 1-4 ordering audit, and special encounters review.

Audit and fix the game seed data to ensure all supported games have accurate encounter data and correct route ordering. PokeAPI provides a solid basis for Gen 1-7, but later games (Gen 8+) have no encounter data at all (stub/null JSON files), and route ordering is only defined for Gen 1-4. This is mostly manual work, but we should explore automated/semi-automated options where possible (e.g. scraping community wikis, leveraging existing fan-curated datasets).
Current State
Encounter data status:
- Complete (from PokeAPI): Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, LeafGreen, Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, SoulSilver, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Black, White, Black 2, White 2, X, Y, Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon
- Stub/null (no data): Sword, Shield, Scarlet, Violet, Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl, Legends Arceus
- Minimal/partial: Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire (96 lines each), Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee (134 lines each), Legends Z-A (1298 lines, partially complete)
Route ordering status (route_order.json):
- Defined: firered-leafgreen (+ aliases: red-blue, yellow, lets-go), heartgold-soulsilver (+ aliases: gold-silver, crystal), emerald (+ aliases: ruby-sapphire, omega-ruby-alpha-sapphire), platinum
- Missing: diamond-pearl, black-white, black-2-white-2, x-y, sun-moon, ultra-sun-ultra-moon, sword-shield, brilliant-diamond-shining-pearl, scarlet-violet, legends-arceus, legends-z-a
Special considerations:
- Existing PokeAPI data may have inaccurate encounter rates or missing special encounters (gifts, fossils, starters)
- Sub-area grouping (children) may need review — some routes are split into too many/few sub-areas
- The
special_encounters.jsonfile handles manual additions but may be incomplete for later gens
Approach
- Manual curation is the primary approach for most tasks
- Explore automated options: community datasets (e.g. veekun/pokedex, PokeAPI CSV data), wiki scraping, or other structured data sources
- Use the admin panel and export CLI to verify/edit data after seeding
