## 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.
