Images for Badges? #107

Just wanted to ask if you're considering expanding to include badges from the different games.

Hi there, sorry for being so late in replying! I'm not against it per se, although the reason they were originally not included is because they're not really related to the Pokémon themselves. Basically everything in the project right now applies to Pokémon, and not to the trainers or other parts of the game state. Even the inventory items are really there because Pokémon can hold them.

So for that reason I've been a little bit careful about including things beyond that, because there's just such a huge amount of other graphics and icons in the games that then also technically become viable. And I'm alright with adding more, but every extra thing requires some thought into how it's organized and how the data is exposed to the users, and all images need to be checked for correctness.

That said if this can solve problems for people I'm all for it.
