Translated battle text (#12247)

This adds translated text for use in battles, sourced from PokeAPI/pokeapi@c0a9bc7, projectpokemon/champout@0c11416, and abcboy101/poke-corpus@9dbc7fd And also my personal Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish knowledge. Also I had to learn so much I didn't want to learn about Korean grammar.

+
+Battle message grammar
+----------------------
+
+Battle message placeholders look like `[POKEMON]`, `[MOVE]`, and `[ITEM]`.
+
+Languages can add modifiers using colons:
+
+    [ITEM:definite:accusative]
+    [TRAINER:definite:capitalize]
+    [POKEMON:de]
+    [POKEMON:topic]
+
+Modifiers used by Pokémon's battle text:
+
+- `definite` - add the appropriate definite article (English "the")
+- `indefinite` - add the appropriate indefinite article (English "a" or "an")
+- `nominative` - use the nominative case (like English "I")
+- `accusative` - use the accusative case (like English "me")
+- `singular` - force singular grammatical agreement
+- `plural` - force plural grammatical agreement
+- `masculine` - force masculine grammatical agreement
+- `capitalize` - capitalize the generated grammatical form
+- `classified` - use Pokémon's `ItemClassified` form instead of its ordinary item-name form
+- `a` - add French, Italian, or Spanish `a`/`à`, including contractions or elision
+- `de` - add French or Spanish `de`, including contractions or elision
+- `di` - add Italian `di`, including contractions
+- `su` - add Italian `su`, including contractions
+- `e` - select Italian `e` or `ed`
+- `y` - select Spanish `y` or `e`
+- `topic` - add the Korean topic particle `은` or `는`
+- `object` - add the Korean object particle `을` or `를`
+- `subject` - add the Korean subject particle `이` or `가`
+- `conjunctive` - add the Korean conjunctive particle `과` or `와`
+- `directional` - add the Korean directional particle `으로` or `로`
+
+Modifiers can be in any order.
+
+Text can be inflected with `[INFLECT]`:
+
+    [INFLECT:ITEM:ms=est détruit:fs=est détruite:mp=sont détruits:fp=sont détruites]
+
+The second field names the placeholder to inflect on. The rest are:
+
+- `s=` - show if the placeholder is singular
+- `p=` - show if the placeholder is plural
+- `ms=` - show if the placeholder is masculine singular
+- `mp=` - show if the placeholder is masculine plural
+- `fs=` - show if the placeholder is feminine singular
+- `fp=` - show if the placeholder is feminine plural
+
+Text grammar
+------------
+
+Gender, singular/plural, and classified versions are stored for item and stat names, in languages that use them (Spanish, French, Italian, and German):
+
+    name: "Agua Mística",
+    grammar: "fu",
+    articleRule: "stressed-a",
+    classified: {
+        name: "colgante de Agua Mística",
+        grammar: "ms",
+    },
+
+- The first letter of `grammar` is gender (`m` - masculine, `f` - feminine, or `n` - neuter).
+- The second letter is countability (`s` - singular, `p` - plural, or `u` - uncountable).
+- `classified` is optional, for item names that change when they need to be counted.
+  - Example: `¡Mew ha tirado al suelo el colgante de Agua Mística de Vaporeon!`
+- `articleRule: "stressed-a"` is also optional, and is for Spanish feminine words which use "el" instead of "la" because of a stressed initial `a`.
+  - Not actually used in any game text; kept around in case someone needs it for something else
