I tried to install pixelmon for minecraft?

When i tried to move the files from the pixelmon folder to my.minecraft folder, but the files were named "assets" and "pixelmon" when they are supposed to be labeled "database" and "mods" Can anyone tell me why its like that and how to fix it?

It sounds like you're using the latest version of Pixelmon, that's 2.5.7, so everything is perfectly fine (The naming convention changed on the latest version). Please make sure you have Forge 1.6.4 Installed. Once you have downloaded Pixelmon, move the zip in the mods folder and run the server.
