Any table being used as an Enum should have a readable identifier which does not change. (Unlike to the `name` column, which *can* change and is often used as a label by spline-pokedex.)

This includes EncounterCondition, EncounterConditionValue, EvolutionMethod, Generation, MoveDamageClass, MoveTarget, et cetera.

Wiki page: [[Identifiers]].

Also, locations need unique identifiers.
