In the [[Pokémon world]], a great deal of advanced technology is shown to be used by [[human]]s. Among this technology is the ability to create '''artificial Pokémon'''—{{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that have not emerged naturally but have been created, either through experiments or indirect means.

===Voltorb and Electrode===
{{p|Voltorb}} and, as such, {{p|Electrode}}, first appeared, according to several Pokédex entries, at [[Silph Co.|the company]] where modern [[Poké Ball]]s were developed (though this is contradicted by the fact that Hisuian Voltorb and Electrode appear in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]). It is rumored that it was first created when a {{i|Poké Ball}} was exposed to a powerful pulse of energy. This theory is supported further by the fact that its internal components are not a natural occurrence.

Until the re-discovery of {{p|Golett}}, {{p|Porygon}} was thought to be the first Pokémon created deliberately. It is the first Pokémon deliberately created using modern technology, as the result of an experiment by the [[Cinnabar Lab]] in [[Kanto]]. [[Silph Co.]] possesses a report on the Pokémon, calling it the first "virtual-reality Pokémon." Because it is made up entirely of computer data, it can exist in cyberspace. According to some Pokédex entries, there is copy-protection data embedded in the program to prevent illegal reproduction, however as Porygon can be bred using {{p|Ditto}}, this is arguably ineffective. Porygon was developed to work in space, but it lacks this ability until evolving.

Porygon possesses two evolutions, both possible through artificial upgrades. {{p|Porygon2}} evolves from Porygon when it is traded while holding an [[Upgrade]]. According to some Pokédex entries, it is designed to work in and explore space; despite this, it is unable to reach and explore other planets. Unlike its predecessor, Porygon2 is not limited to what is contained in its program—it is capable of learning.

Porygon2 evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when traded holding a [[Dubious Disc]]. It is a modification of Porygon2, designed for travel between different [[dimensions]]. However, it did not work as planned, so it exhibits erratic behavior.

===Mewtwo===
[[File:Mewtwo M01.png|thumb|left|250px|Mewtwo is a clone of Mew.]]
{{p|Mewtwo}} is a powerful Legendary Pokémon, the result of gene-splicing experiments using the DNA of the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. According to logs found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} in Kanto, Mew "gave birth" to Mewtwo after an embryo had been developed. This is inconsistent with Pokémon traditionally being born from {{pkmn|Egg}}s. It has a somewhat artificial appearance, most notably the tube protruding from the back of its neck. Like Mew, it harnesses powerful {{t|psychic}} energy. However, Mewtwo's power was amplified to exceed Mew's power to create the most powerful Pokémon in existence.

===Genesect===
===Genesect===
{{p|Genesect}}, a Mythical Pokémon, was a different Pokémon many years ago. However, in [[Unova]], [[Team Plasma]] reconstructed it from a [[Fossil]] to create the most powerful Pokémon ever. [[N]] cancelled the project due to his belief that a Pokémon modified by science would lose its pureness. [[P2 Laboratory#Event 2|One scientist]], however, kept working on the project in secrecy, disagreeing with N's decision to cancel it. The scientist equipped Genesect with a metallic body, a cannon behind its head, and items known as [[drive]]s which change the type of its [[signature move]], {{m|Techno Blast}}.

===Type: Null and Silvally===
===Type: Null and Silvally===
{{p|Type: Null}} was created by the [[Aether Foundation]] as part of its "Beast Killer" project - an initiative to create a Pokémon optimized for battling the [[Ultra Beast]]s by using cell cultures from all known types of Pokémon and combining their greatest strengths. Originally known as "Type: Full", the {{a|RKS System}} it was originally built with was intended to allow it to change types to adapt to any situation. When the three known models all rejected the RKS system and went berserk, the project was deemed a failure and they were placed into cryogenic stasis. The helmet Type: Null wears was made to stabilize the side-effects of the RKS System's rejection at the expense of suppressing its full power. When it evolves into {{p|Silvally}}, it deliberately destroys its helmet and becomes able to use the RKS System without losing control of itself. Silvally was named by [[Gladion]], according to the Pokédex.

Another Type: Null is later created in [[Galar]] by [[Macro Cosmos]] by using stolen [[Aether Foundation]]'s research notes.
