Change description

Beginning with Pokémon SWSH and following versions, multiple german item-names were changed. Some items like the shell-bell have already been updated, this PR targets the remaining items.

During verification I discovered, that the names of mistigrixite were mixed up between ger/fr/en, this was updated to.

AI coding assistance disclosure

In order to find all outdated translations, a local copy of the PokeAPI names was compared with the complete item lists from the german PokeWiki.
The script to compare these lists by string-matching was created with the help of AI.
