Features we ought to have:

* The templates for a location and a Pokémon’s encounters are extremely similar, as is some of the controller code. Merge these.

* Explain at the top of the page what the fuck is going on.

* Let me filter by conditions. (Don’t offer to filter by conditions that don’t actually affect the location, of course.)

* On the Pokémon pages themselves, the list of locations is very bold and imposing. Kill the bold and see about dropping some of the less-frequent areas for stuff like Goldeen, or even just cut it off with an ellipsis.

Bugs we ought to fix:

* Faded radio icon looks like just a radio.

* Fix the breakdown of fishing ranges, so I don’t have “10~~20, 15~~25”.

* See Rattata on Route 2; it has “+20%” for all three times of day, because those 20%s happen to come from different slots. These should be merged, of course.

* Conditions are still ordered a bit oddly; there’s swarm,day vs day,radio or something. Time of day sure seems like it should be first.

* “+x%” when there’s no base condition is confusing. Find a better way to indicate this; maybe an explicit “0%” to start would be better. Actually, maybe the additions should be styled entirely differently from the base case?

Perhaps also we need a zoomed-in display for a single combination of location-area and version, that could have Pokémon along the vertical axis and conditions along the horizontal axis.
