## Problem

In the Sword and Shield seed data, wild Pokemon on almost all encounter locations are also duplicated as gift encounters. This appears to be an issue with the PokeDB export process.

## Goal

Investigate why the PokeDB export produced duplicate gift entries for wild encounters, then clean up the data so that only genuine gifts are listed as gifts.

## Checklist

- [ ] Investigate the PokeDB export logic to understand why wild Pokemon are being duplicated as gifts
- [ ] Identify which encounters are legitimately gifts vs incorrectly tagged
- [ ] Remove erroneous gift entries from Sword seed data
- [ ] Remove erroneous gift entries from Shield seed data
- [ ] Verify remaining gift encounters are accurate
