Validate and regenerate all seed data from PokeDB

- Regenerate seed JSON for all 37 games with more complete PokeDB data
- Add category field to games.json (original/enhanced/remake/sequel/spinoff)
- Include all 1350 pokemon in pokemon.json with types and local sprites
- Build reverse index for PokeDB form lookups (types/sprites for evolutions)
- Move sprites to frontend/public/sprites, reference as /sprites/{id}.webp
- Truncate Sw/Sh den names to fit DB VARCHAR(100) limit
- Deduplicate route names and merge unnamed child areas into parent routes
- Populate 7 previously empty games (Sw/Sh, BDSP, PLA, Sc/Vi)

 ## 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.
+- [x] **Diff against existing data**: Compared all 37 games. Route names differ systematically (PokeDB uses proper punctuation/region qualifiers). Encounter counts are generally higher (PokeDB more complete). Version exclusives verified.
+- [x] **Fix discrepancies**: Fixed: games.json missing `category` field, pokemon.json missing 231 non-encountered pokemon (evolutions etc.), pokemon name casing in special encounters, sprite coverage for all 1350 pokemon, type coverage using fallback to existing data.
+- [x] **Generate for all games**: All 37 games (+ legends-z-a with no data) generated successfully. All 39 JSON files validated. 7 previously empty games now populated (Sw/Sh, BDSP, PLA, Sc/Vi).
+- [x] **New game coverage**: Sword/Shield (1052 routes, 8900 encounters), Scarlet/Violet (415 routes, ~3850 encounters), Legends Arceus (88 routes, 1582 encounters), BDSP (177 routes, ~1840 encounters) — all reasonable.
+- [ ] **Update route_order.json**: 11 version groups have route orders, 11 are missing (diamond-pearl, black-white, black-2-white-2, x-y, sun-moon, ultra-sun-ultra-moon, sword-shield, brilliant-diamond-shining-pearl, legends-arceus, scarlet-violet). Requires manual curation.
+- [ ] **Update special_encounters.json**: Currently only covers 3 version groups (firered-leafgreen, heartgold-soulsilver, emerald + aliases). Requires manual curation for other games.
 
 ## Notes
 - This is the final validation step before we can replace PokeAPI as the data source
