Summary

Adds the seven specific NPC in-game trades from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, sourced from Serebii.

Location You Give You Receive Level Versions
Route 4 Cottonee Petilil 20 Black 2 only
Route 4 Petilil Cottonee 20 White 2 only
Route 7 Emolga Gigalith 35 Both
Humilau City Mantine Tangrowth 45 Both
Route 15 Ditto Rotom 60 Both
Accumula Town Excadrill Ambipom 40 Both
Accumula Town Hippowdon Alakazam 40 Both

Changes

Modeled on the existing GSC (#1473) and RSE (#1478) trade PRs:

  • encounter_slots.csv: new slot 1482 for the BW2 npc-trade method (vg 14, method 36).
  • location_areas.csv / location_area_prose.csv: new location area 1363 for Accumula Town — no entry existed.
  • encounter_condition_values.csv / encounter_condition_value_prose.csv: seven new trade-<species> condition values (trade-cottonee, trade-petilil, trade-emolga, trade-mantine, trade-ditto, trade-excadrill, trade-hippowdon) with English prose.
  • encounters.csv: 12 new encounter rows (6 per version) with min_level = received level and max_level = 100, following the convention from prior trade PRs.
  • encounter_condition_value_map.csv: 12 new rows linking each encounter to its "give" condition.

Out of scope

The Yancy/Curtis Funfest Mission trades in Nimbasa City are not included. They accept any Pokémon and branch on player gender, which would need new encounter-condition infrastructure (no trade-any or gender condition exists today). Happy to do these in a follow-up if there's interest.

Adds the seven specific NPC trades from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2
(sourced from Serebii):

- Route 4: Cottonee ↔ Petilil (version-exclusive)
- Route 7: Emolga → Gigalith
- Humilau City: Mantine → Tangrowth
- Route 15: Ditto → Rotom
- Accumula Town: Excadrill → Ambipom
- Accumula Town: Hippowdon → Alakazam

To support these:
- Add encounter slot for the BW2 npc-trade method (vg 14, method 36)
- Add Accumula Town location area (no entry existed)
- Add seven new "Give X in a Trade" encounter condition values
- Add encounters and encounter condition value mappings for B2 and W2

The Yancy/Curtis Funfest Mission trades in Nimbasa City are not
included; they accept any Pokémon and depend on player gender, which
needs additional encounter-condition infrastructure not present today.
