Hack description

This hack modifies existing Pokemon types, move types, and type match-ups to reflect their generation 6 incarnations.

For example: the move Gust has been made Flying type, Jigglypuff is Normal/Fairy typed, and Ghost attacks deal 2x damage to Psychics instead of 0x. Bite becomes a Dark type move, and Magnemite gains steel typing.

Included are the hack itself, a readme, and notes taken during the development of the hack, which may be of interest to other ROM hackers.

This hack was inspired by the Steel/Dark hack by koolboyman but is not related any other way.

A major improvement to a an aging classic.	Bluestreak	2015-10-26	Version 1.0
This truly is a great step in Pokémon Gen 1 hacking, and has improved some of the greatest flaws in PKMN red. Because of this, the game feels so much more fair when playing. The only thing that could make this better is if someone made an EXP share hack that could be used in conjunction with this hack.

Add Steel sand Dark Type to improve!	Chippy2000	2014-01-15	-
I like the updated type system but maybe the Steel and Dark types can be added too? It'll make the game more balanced since Fairies are OP in this...thanks anyway :D
