First there was Pokémon with an arbitrary learnset/evolution, then there were arbitrary Pokédex entries, then there were arbitrary glitch Pokémon sprites, now there are arbitrary glitch types for glitch types 0x50 (D031 RB/D030 Y, on various glitch Pokémon) and 0x4F (FA7E; on TM03), which means you can assign any name for the type that you want! 

This requires the offgao memory editor which you can install on a Red/Blue/Yellow without any ROM hacking required by using 8F/ws m to place bytes at DA80 (see here): https://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php?topic=7773.msg204998#msg204998

(The process is described in the description here and for ws m you may have to call CopyData to get the bytes at DA7F: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNyDmZlbsNI)

Although the customized type name for 0x50 does not persist after entering a battle, the customized 0x4F type name does, provided that you don't change boxes or use the Day Care.

To add a different name modify DA7E. If using an emulator that doesn't support Echo RAM this may not work, so to be sure use a new version of VBA (such as VBA rerecording) or BGB.
