Feature Request: Generation I held items

If you trade a Pokemon from gen II to gen I, it will actually retain its held item when traded back to a gen II game. This is done by altering the "catch rate" value and interpreting it as an item. This is why the starter Pikachu from Pokemon Yellow will have a Light Ball when traded over to a gen II game; The starter Pikachu in that game has a catch rate of 163 (instead of 190), which corresponds to the Light Ball. It's also the only way to get TM09 Psych Up in gen II.

So by comparing the Catch Rate to a List of items by index number in Generation II, you can use PKHeX to see what item each Pokemon is carrying.

Anyways- I think I accidentally traded over a rare item into gen I.
