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 is able to 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. | ||

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. | ||

{{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.

===Genesect=== | |||
{{p|Genesect}}, a Mythical Pokémon, was a different Pokémon many years ago. However, in [[Unova]], [[Team Plasma]] reconstructed it from a [[Fossil]] with the goal 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}}. | |||

Originally known as "Type: Full", the {{a|RKS System}} it was originally built with was intended to allow it to change types in order 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. | ||

According to several [[Pokédex]] entries, {{p|Grimer}} and consequently {{p|Muk}} were created from human pollution in a stream exposed to {{wp|X-ray}}s from the Moon. As they were created from genetic waste, Grimer and Muk are {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. | |||
