Outsourced Data #161

Description

@mjhayes412

Out of curiosity, are we not using any of the PokemonShowdown data? If not, I could take on the task of extracting data from it, for example the move descriptions.

Would there be any benefit in separating the API and database into two docker containers (possibly three)? I watched a video that separated a wordpress instance (gross, I know) and its MySQL database. It even had a persistent data container that was only ran to create a volume for the MySQL container to reference and that's it! I mean, how cool is that?!

So my idea of a RESTful API is one that doesn't perform inserts or updates and sends out data lightning fast. To me, that sounds like prime indexing time. I mean, I'm ready to index ItemGameIndex on its game_index, am I right?

I've been wanting to design a database structure with this particular data (for my personal gain ... I live for relational database structure) but at the same time I really, really want to contribute to this one. So how do you guys feel about edits to the model? Would anyone be wiling to mentor me on its current design? The level of abstraction is awesome .... I think. It might be asking much but I was wondering if someone could take me under their wing and get me started in making commits. I really want to see some activity on my profile page :)
