[Other] Generation 5 type chart structure

    Hello :).

    I've successfully been able to edit the type chart in the generation 3 and 4 games (what type is effective against what type).

    It's not hard, and can be easily done with a hex editor.
    This topic explains how to do it quite well.

    This page helps as well.

    The index numbers for each type are found in there as well. The offset for the place where this chart starts isn't that important since you can just search values in a hex editor until you come to said place (like say, search for value 03 07 05, for example, since poison (03), is not very effective (05) against ghost (07) ).

    I've been trying to do this with Pokemon Black, but to no avail.
    The type structure seems to have changed, and of course the ??? type has been removed.
    Although, in hacking tools, the types are still in the same order, other than ??? being absent.

    I've searched high and low for any information on this, but there's nothing about it for generation 5.
    So my question for anyone here is if they know more about this. Would this still work the same way
    as in older generations or has this changed entirely? I would probably be able to do this with just the index numbers of each type (provided the structure is similar).

    Thank you for your help :).
