Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Items API and Locations API to determine how their data is modeled. Investigate whether an authoritative source exists for item locations across games and repeatability; done should include a defined aggregation approach and API representation for those relationships.

Description

I saw an open issue for tm locations, but I would like to expand that to item locations. Items API already exists, and locations already exist, but being able to know which locations in which game provide that item, and if its repeatable or not would be useful.

I don't know if this would just be scraping wikis or if there is some other source of truth that could be used to aggregate that data for a bunch of games.
