+Game JSON files (especially Gen 7) have stale route entries from a previous import that used different naming. The seeder upserted without cleaning up, so the DB accumulated both old (e.g. 'Route 1') and new (e.g. 'Alola Route 1') entries. Then --export dumped both to JSON, creating duplicates with conflicting order values.
+
+## Checklist
+- [ ] Identify all affected game JSON files
+- [ ] Remove stale/duplicate route entries (the ones not in route_order.json)
+- [ ] Reassign sequential order values to fix the gaps
+- [ ] Verify no data loss (the kept routes should have all the encounter data)
