Porygon (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Due to its man-made origins, Porygon does not need to breathe or eat, though it can still accept food if given. It has the ability to convert its body into digital data, allowing it to travel through cyberspace. Recently, it has become more helpful inside cyberspace by searching for any suspicious data that exists. Some believed Porygon has the power to potentially travel in space despite the species not displaying that ability yet. Because it is man-made, it is generally found in computers or in labs and other {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|buildings}} where people work.

===Evolution===

Porygon evolves into {{p|Porygon2}}, which evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}}.

==Trivia==

* Porygon is the only Pokémon that evolves by trade twice: once holding the [[Upgrade]] into {{p|Porygon2}}, and a second time (as Porygon2) into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when holding a [[Dubious Disc]]. It is also the only Pokémon in a [[:Category:Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line|three-stage evolutionary line]] that does not require leveling up to trigger any of its evolutions (i.e. it is possible to acquire a Porygon-Z at level 1).

* Porygon's evolutionary line is the only three-stage evolutionary line whose members were all considered fully evolved during their respective debut generations.
