Add route progression ordering in `route_order.json` for all games that currently lack it. Routes should be ordered to match the typical in-game progression (main story first, post-game after).
## Games needing route ordering:
- [ ] Diamond/Pearl (could alias to Platinum if progression is similar enough)
- [ ] Black/White
- [ ] Black 2/White 2
- [ ] X/Y
- [ ] Sun/Moon
- [ ] Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon (could alias to Sun/Moon if similar enough)
- [ ] Sword/Shield
- [ ] Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl (could alias to Platinum/Diamond-Pearl)
- [ ] Scarlet/Violet
- [ ] Legends Arceus
- [ ] Legends Z-A
- [ ] Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee (currently aliased to firered-leafgreen — verify this is correct)
## Approach:
- Reference Bulbapedia "walkthrough" or "appendix" pages for progression order
- Consider aliasing games that share the same region and route progression
- Mark a clear divider between main story and post-game routes where applicable
- The format is an array of route name strings in `route_order.json`, keyed by version group slug
## Notes:
- This is primarily manual work — play order guides are widely available online
- Verify route names match exactly what's in the encounter data files (case-sensitive)
