-Build a Go tool that converts PokeDB.org's JSON data export into our existing seed JSON format. This replaces PokeAPI as the single source of truth for ALL games (Gen 1-9).
+Build a standalone Python tool that converts PokeDB.org's JSON data export into our existing seed JSON format. This replaces PokeAPI as the single source of truth for ALL games (Gen 1-9).
+
+Python was chosen over Go because:
+- The backend is already Python, so the team is familiar with it
+- We're processing local JSON files — no need for Go's concurrency
+- Remains a standalone tool in `tools/import-pokedb/`, not part of the backend

-### Checklist
-- [ ] Set up project structure in `tools/import-pokedb/`
-- [ ] Download and cache PokeDB JSON export files
-- [ ] Parse PokeDB encounters, locations, location_areas, versions, pokemon_forms
-- [ ] Build lookup maps: pokemon_form_identifier → pokeapi_id (using existing `pokemon.json`)
-- [ ] Build lookup maps: location_area_identifier → location name + region
-- [ ] Filter encounters by target game version
-- [ ] Map PokeDB encounter methods to our seed format methods (73 → simplified set)
-- [ ] Parse level strings ("2 - 4" → min_level: 2, max_level: 4)
-- [ ] Handle rate variants per game generation:
-  - For now, flatten time/weather/season rates into `encounter_rate` (use the max or average)
-  - Preserve raw variant data for future use (see nuzlocke-tracker-oqfo)
-- [ ] Group encounters by location area → route output
-- [ ] Apply route ordering (use existing route_order.json or generate from location data)
-- [ ] Output in existing `{game}.json` seed format
-- [ ] Generate seed data for ALL games, replacing PokeAPI as the single source of truth
-- [ ] Compare output against existing PokeAPI-sourced data to validate accuracy
-- [ ] Run for all games and verify output
+Work is broken into child task beans:
+
+- [ ] **Set up Python tool scaffold** — project structure, CLI entry point, PokeDB JSON file loading
+- [ ] **Build reference data mappings** — pokemon_form → pokeapi_id, location_area → name/region, encounter method mapping
+- [ ] **Core encounter processing** — filter by game version, parse levels, handle rate variants, group by location area
+- [ ] **Output seed JSON** — produce per-game JSON in existing format, integrate route ordering + special encounters
+- [ ] **Validation & full generation** — compare against existing data, run for all games, fix discrepancies

+Set up the standalone Python tool project in `tools/import-pokedb/`.
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [x] Create `tools/import-pokedb/` directory structure
+- [x] Set up `pyproject.toml` with dependencies (just stdlib should suffice for JSON processing, maybe `click` for CLI)
+- [x] Create CLI entry point (`__main__.py` or similar) that accepts:
+  - Path to directory containing PokeDB JSON export files
+  - Target output directory (default: `backend/src/app/seeds/data/`)
+  - Optional: specific game version to generate (default: all)
+- [x] Load and parse all PokeDB JSON files: `encounters.json`, `locations.json`, `location_areas.json`, `encounter_methods.json`, `versions.json`, `pokemon_forms.json`
+- [x] Basic validation that all expected files are present and parseable
+
+## Notes
+- Keep it as a standalone tool, not part of the backend
+- The PokeDB JSON files are downloaded manually from https://pokedb.org/data-export — no need to automate the download
+- Model the CLI similarly to how `tools/fetch-pokeapi/` works (cd into dir, run the tool)

+Generate the final per-game JSON files in the existing seed format.
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [ ] **Apply route ordering**: Use the existing `backend/src/app/seeds/route_order.json` to assign `order` values to routes. Handle aliases (e.g. "red-blue" → "firered-leafgreen"). Log warnings for routes not in the order file.
+- [ ] **Merge special encounters**: Integrate starters, gifts, fossils, and trades from `backend/src/app/seeds/special_encounters.json` into the appropriate routes.
+- [ ] **Output per-game JSON**: Write `{game-slug}.json` files matching the existing format:
+  ```json
+  [{"name": "Route 1", "order": 3, "encounters": [...], "children": []}]
+  ```
+- [ ] **Output games.json**: Generate the global games list from `version_groups.json` (this may already be handled by existing config, verify).
+- [ ] **Output pokemon.json**: Generate the global pokemon list including all pokemon referenced in any encounter. Include pokeapi_id, national_dex, name, types, sprite_url.
+- [ ] **Handle version exclusives**: Ensure encounters specific to one version in a version group only appear in that game's JSON file (e.g. FireRed exclusives vs LeafGreen exclusives).
+
+## Notes
+- The output must be a drop-in replacement for the existing files in `backend/src/app/seeds/data/`
+- Boss data (`{game}-bosses.json`) is NOT generated by this tool — it's manually curated
+- Evolutions data is also separate (currently from PokeAPI) — out of scope for this task

+Implement the core logic that transforms raw PokeDB encounter records into our internal format.
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [ ] **Filter by game version**: Given a target game slug, select only encounters where `version_identifiers` includes that game
+- [ ] **Parse level strings**: Convert "2 - 4" → min_level=2, max_level=4; "67" → min_level=67, max_level=67
+- [ ] **Handle rate variants per generation**:
+  - Gen 1/3/6: use `rate_overall` directly as `encounter_rate`
+  - Gen 2/4: `rate_morning`, `rate_day`, `rate_night` — flatten to max or average for `encounter_rate`
+  - Gen 5: `rate_spring` through `rate_winter` — flatten similarly
+  - Gen 8 Sw/Sh: `weather_*_rate` fields — flatten to max
+  - Gen 8 Legends Arceus: `during_*` / `while_*` booleans — convert to a presence-based rate
+  - Gen 9 Sc/Vi: `probability_*` fields (spawn weights, not percentages) — normalize to percentages
+  - Preserve raw variant data in a way that nuzlocke-tracker-oqfo can use later
+- [ ] **Aggregate encounters**: Group by (pokemon, method, location_area) and merge level ranges / rates where appropriate (same logic as the Go tool's aggregation)
+- [ ] **Group by location area**: Collect all encounters for a location area into a route structure
+- [ ] **Handle parent/child routes**: Multi-area locations (e.g. Safari Zone) should produce parent routes with children, matching the existing hierarchical format
+
+## Notes
+- Rate parsing needs to handle percentage strings like "40%" as well as bare numbers
+- The Go tool aggregates encounters with the same pokemon+method at a location into a single entry with merged level ranges — replicate this

+
+Validate the new tool's output against existing data and generate seed data for all games.
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [ ] **Diff against existing data**: For games we already have PokeAPI-sourced data for, compare the PokeDB output. Identify and investigate discrepancies:
+  - Missing routes or encounters
+  - Different encounter rates
+  - Different level ranges
+  - Missing or extra pokemon
+- [ ] **Fix discrepancies**: Adjust mappings, parsing, or aggregation logic to resolve legitimate differences. Document cases where PokeDB provides better/different data than PokeAPI.
+- [ ] **Generate for all games**: Run the tool for every game version in `version_groups.json`. Verify output is valid JSON and structurally correct.
+- [ ] **New game coverage**: For games not previously supported (or with incomplete PokeAPI data), verify the output looks reasonable by spot-checking a few routes.
+- [ ] **Update route_order.json**: Add route orderings for any new games that didn't have entries. This may require manual curation.
+- [ ] **Update special_encounters.json**: Add special encounters for any new games. This may require manual curation.
+
+## Notes
+- This is the final validation step before we can replace PokeAPI as the data source
+- Some discrepancies are expected — PokeDB may have more complete data than PokeAPI
+- Route ordering for new games will likely need manual work

+Build the lookup maps needed to translate PokeDB identifiers into our seed format.
+
+## Checklist
+
+- [ ] **Pokemon form mapping**: Map `pokemon_form_identifier` (e.g. "pidgey-default", "mr-mime-default") to `pokeapi_id` using the existing `backend/src/app/seeds/data/pokemon.json` as reference. Handle naming convention differences between PokeDB and PokeAPI (may need fuzzy matching or a manual override table).
+- [ ] **Location area mapping**: Map `location_area_identifier` to human-readable location names and regions using `locations.json` and `location_areas.json`. Produce names matching our existing format (e.g. "Route 1", "Viridian Forest").
+- [ ] **Encounter method mapping**: Map PokeDB's 73 encounter methods to our simplified set. See the draft mapping in the parent bean. Implement as a dictionary/config that's easy to extend.
+- [ ] **Version mapping**: Map PokeDB `version_identifiers` to our game slugs (should mostly be 1:1 but verify).
+
+## Notes
+- The pokemon form mapping is the trickiest part — PokeDB uses identifiers like "mr-mime-default" while our pokemon.json uses names like "Mr. Mime" and pokeapi IDs
+- Log warnings for any unmapped identifiers so we can add overrides
+- The `pokemon_forms.json` from PokeDB may help bridge the gap
