Porygon2 first made its appearance as a Porygon where it was shown being obtained by {{adv|Blue}} from the [[Celadon Game Corner]]; however, this Pokémon was disobedient and ran away from his new Trainer. After chasing it, Blue accidentally crashed into {{adv|Red}}, causing a temporary switch with both Trainers. Porygon was later used against [[Koga]] in the [[Silph Co.]] Building where it was used along with [[Pika]] to defeat the [[Gym Leader]].

Porygon2 first appeared as a Porygon in ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', when Blue bought him from the [[Game Corner]]. After Blue lets him out of its Poké Ball it ran away, causing Blue to run into {{adv|Red}}. Because of this the two accidentally trade their Pokémon. During the three days that Red has Blue's team he attempts to get them to relax and open up to him, with little success. They later traded back, while keeping the caring attitude that Red installed in them.


In ''[[PS055|The Primeape Directive]]'', Porygon was used to defeat a group of rampaging {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Primeape}} after using its ability to move through cyberspace to switch from Blue's Pokédex to {{adv|Yellow}}'s. It was later used to fight and defeat [[Agatha]]'s {{TP|Agatha|Gengar}} with help from Koga.

It was then seen in ''[[PS285|Once More into the Unown]]'' when it was used to disable [[Trainer Tower]] AI "R" so that Blue and {{adv|Green}} could rescue their family members. At first, it succeeded but not long after "R" came back online and trapped it with a Virtual Lock.

History

Red, Green & Blue arc

As a Porygon

Porygon2 first appeared as a Porygon in A Tale of Ninetales, when Blue bought him from the Game Corner. After Blue lets him out of its Poké Ball it ran away, causing Blue to run into Red. Because of this the two accidentally trade their Pokémon. During the three days that Red has Blue's team he attempts to get them to relax and open up to him, with little success. They later traded back, while keeping the caring attitude that Red installed in them.

In The Art of Articuno, Porygon and Pika successfully surprise attack Koga and knock him out.

Yellow arc

In The Primeape Directive, Porygon was used to defeat a group of rampaging Mankey and Primeape after using its ability to move through cyberspace to switch from Blue's Pokédex to Yellow's.

In Striking Golduck, Porygon was used as Blue's last resort to fight Agatha's Gengar. Because Gengar would hide in the shadows and attack with Counter, Blue decided to use Porygon's Conversion to turn into a Ghost-type. Porygon was then able to counter Gengar's Counter attack but was unable to get Gengar out of the shadows long enough to land a finishing attack. Blue eventually managed to lure Gengar out of the shadows and had Porygon finish it with Psybeam.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Blue and Porygon2

Porygon reappeared in Playful Porygon2 where it was revealed to have evolved into a Porygon2. It was used to fight Silver's Sneasel before they were interrupted by Entei.

FireRed & LeafGreen arc

In Red and Blue Make Purple Opponents, Porygon2 is used alongside Golduck in a double battle against Red and his Snor and Gyara. Gyara starts the battle off with his Ability Intimidate, and Blue responds by having Golduck use Iron Tail and Porygon2 use Tri Attack on Red's Pokémon. Red then has Gyara counter attack with Body Slam on Porygon2, while Snor attacks Golduck with Strength. Gyara next uses Hyper Beam on Golduck, and Golduck uses Dig to hide and avoid further damage. Red counters by having Snor use Earthquake, dealing damage to Porygon2, twice the damage to Golduck due to him being underground, which causes him to faint, and Gyara being unaffected due to him being part Flying-type. As Red celebrates he notices that Gyara had been paralyzed by the effects of Tri Attack. Blue takes the opportunity to switch in Porygon2 for Scizor.

In Once More into the Unown, Porygon2 uses its cyber abilities to enter into the Trainer Tower's computer system "R". Using the Salac Berry Blue gave him it quickly reaches the central nervous system and attacks with Zap Cannon, disabling it. Not long after this "R" recovers and traps Porygon2 with a virtual lock.

Emerald arc

Porygon2 made its most recent appearance in The Final Battle VII, battling Guile Hideout's stolen Battle Tower Pokémon.
