priority: -- through ++
due date: fall 2012!  not sure when yet.  get movin bucko


THINGS TO REDESIGN/REIMPLEMENT
++    pokemon
      - consider doing something more useful with moves.  perhaps only show current gen (or current compatible gens, i.e., 4 and 5), and put the massive table on yet another subpage?
++    pokemon flavor
      - currently wasting a ton of space here, much of it on near-duplicates.  need to consolidate like crazy.
        - show differences between shiny/not, male/female in a more useful manner
        - remember some people (ahem, mel) want to be able to see everything without fucking with buttons
        - want to make use of shinyness to e.g. generate a shiny sugimori sprite  :9
+     pokemon encounters
      - this fucking blows atm
++    moves
      - not much to it, but could make better use of space to explain the metadata more clearly
+     abilities
+     types
+     items
++    comparer
      - missing hidden abilities atm
++    stat calculator
      - may still need better usability, not sure.  needs more linkage from e.g. pokemon pages
+0    pokeball thing

MAIN GAME DATA WE ARE NOTICEABLY LACKING
++    b/w encounters
