Description

Hi, I was looking for some Pokemon on how to get them in Gen IV and I noticed that the encounter for Anorith/Cradily are missing for those games:
(diamon, pearl, platinium, heartgold, black, white, black2, white2, x, omegarubiy, alphasapphire, brilliant diamond, shining pearl, sword/shield expansion pass)
condition value should be 'item-root-fossil'

Currently available are the entries for ruby, sapphire, emerald, ultra-sun and ultra-moon.
I have not checked any other Fossil Pokemon.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/347/encounters
  2. https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/345/encounters

Research direction

Start with the encounter responses at /api/v2/pokemon/347/encounters and /api/v2/pokemon/345/encounters, then locate the data source that supplies those records. Check the listed game versions and add the missing fossil encounters using the condition value "item-root-fossil". Done means both Pokémon return the expected encounters for the specified versions.
