Despite {{AP|Pikachu}} being the one to launch the seizure-inducing attack, {{p|Porygon}} has never had an important role in another episode since, while Pikachu has appeared in every Pokémon episode and movie to date, barring [[side story episodes]]. Porygon's evolved forms, {{p|Porygon2}} and {{p|Porygon-Z}}, also remained absent from the anime until [[M15|the fifteenth movie]], and even then only appeared in cameo roles.

Also, the moves {{m|Sharpen}} and {{m|Conversion}} have never been used in the anime again. | Despite {{AP|Pikachu}} being the one to launch the seizure-inducing attack, {{p|Porygon}} has never had an important role in another episode since, while Pikachu has appeared in every Pokémon episode and movie to date, barring [[side story episodes]].
