Wild Pokemon on 6 locations were incorrectly duplicated as gift encounters by the PokeDB export. Removed 39 from Sword and 40 from Shield, preserving legitimate gifts (starters, fossils, Type Null, Kubfu, etc.). Resolves beans-cdmx. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

| Clean up Sword/Shield encounter data: wild Pokemon incorrectly listed as gifts | in-progress | bug | normal | 2026-02-14T19:56:12Z | 2026-02-14T21:14:38Z |
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.
Findings
The PokeDB export duplicated walk encounters as gift encounters on 6 locations in each game. The affected locations were: Route 1 (Galar), Galar Mine, Motostoke Outskirts, Route 6 (Galar), Glimwood Tangle, and Route 7 (Galar). Route 6 also had legitimate fossil gifts (Arctovish, Arctozolt, Dracovish, Dracozolt) which were preserved.
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 (39 removed)
- Remove erroneous gift entries from Shield seed data (40 removed)
- Verify remaining gift encounters are accurate
