Why is this part commented? When a file is already present we could simply delete the id-variant.png file.

I commented this out so the file is always renamed, which lets me double-check any differences between the id-variant and the Pokémon ID. The id-variant file is always deleted.

I think there should be a case when there is a id-<variant> and a new custom <id> (10000+) present we compare both the images if they are same either rename or delete but if its different we flag that somewhere

I dont think pokepai has ratelimits in place so this check can probably be skipped

This adds a script that renames variety PNG files (e.g. 877-hangry.png) to their correct Pokémon IDs by querying the Pokémon species endpoint and matching varieties by name.
Resolves #174.
First run against the official-artwork folder looks correct; I'll follow up with 2–3 other folders in this PRs and keep this minimal.
