v2.0 — Evolution chains, fair-use guide, and a faster search index

The docs caught up with a year of PokéAPI additions.

  • New: a full Evolution reference page — trigger types, conditional items, friendship thresholds, and the recursive chain-walking pattern covered in the evolution chains blog post.
  • New: Fair Use — rate-limit guidance and caching recommendations for anyone hitting the API at scale.
  • Improved: Cmd/Ctrl+K search now indexes every resource page, not just guides — jumping straight to /pokemon/pikachu's field reference is now one keystroke away.
  • Fixed: the evolution_details array in chain responses was documented as required; it's actually omitted (not empty) for the root species.
