footnotes=''Electric Soldier Porygon'' is the most commonly used translation: no known official English title exists for this episode.}}
(Japanese: '''でんのうせんしポリゴン''' ''Computer Soldier Porygon'', commonly ''Electric Soldier Porygon''; no known English title) is a somewhat notorious episode of the [[Pokémon anime]], due to the fact that on its single airing in Japan on December 16, 1997, nearly seven hundred Japanese children suffered seizures, vomiting, irritated eyes and other symptoms due to a flashing strobe effect.

The episode was never commercially released or re-broadcast anywhere in the world due to it being banned by the Japanese government.

The scene which caused the seizures was a fifteen-second section in which {{AP|Pikachu}} used an {{t|Electric}} attack on some vaccine missiles. The explosion was shown as a bright flashing object which alternated rapidly between red and blue.

The seizures caused by this episode caused [[Oriental Light and Magic|OLM]] to drop the strobe effects from Pikachu's electric attacks. Also, a disclaimer is now broadcast at the beginning of television anime precautioning viewers to not sit too close to the television screen and watch it only in a brightly lit room. (テレビアニメを見るときには、部屋をあかるくして近づきすぎないようにしてみてくださいね。)

Also, this episode gained Pokémon the dubious title of "Most Seizures Caused by an Animated Television Program" from The Guinness Book of World Records.


{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The episode begins with {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} going to a [[Pokémon Center]] in order to revive Ash's tired {{AP|Pikachu}} when they see a distressed [[Nurse Joy]]. There's a problem with the [[Poké Ball]] {{pkmn|storage system|transporter}} — the [[Pokémon]] she sends never arrives at another Pokémon Center, and it's replaced by a different Pokémon!

[[Dr. Akihabara]], the inventor of the Pokémon Transport System, is at the Center trying to figure out what went wrong with the system. Brock suggests that a {{wp|computer virus}} could be the source of the problem. Akihabara explains that the system couldn't have been infected with a virus because he designed the circuits so well. Ash confuses his explanation of a computer virus with a biological one and thinks the transport system is actually sick. Nurse Joy is told about an Anti-Virus vaccine, which is a powerful device made to fix the problem. However, upon further investigation into the system, Akihabara unexpectedly gasps and suddenly bolts out of the Center, leaving Joy and the others confused.

Ash, Misty, and Brock break into Akihabara's huge laboratory mansion to figure out what happened to him. Inside, they are startled by a giant holographic image of Akihabara's head. After realizing Akihabara is still friendly, he leads them into a room with a giant machine. The doctor orders them to enter the machine, only telling them that they have entered a giant Human Transporter after he has sealed and locked the door. It is at that time that {{p|Porygon}} appears in the midst of them. Akihabara introduces Porygon to the group and explains that some thieves, namely [[Team Rocket]], have stolen his other prototype Porygon, and are causing havoc. Team Rocket is literally inside the system, blocking the Poké Balls from reaching the Centers and keeping them for themselves. Akihabara can't send the anti-virus vaccine in there because humans are inside the computer, and the vaccine would surely blow them to pieces. So, Akihabara's solution is to send Ash and co. into the machine with Porygon to defeat Team Rocket. Ash and his friends refuse, but Akihabara traps them inside the Human Transporter and they are eventually sucked into cyberspace.

The group falls into the Transporter system, but Porygon flies beneath them, grows size and catches them. Riding on Porygon's back, Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu ride over to Team Rocket's location.

Team Rocket are celebrating their so-far successful raid of Pokémon, confident that since they are where no human has gone before. Just as Team Rocket claims that no one can catch them, Porygon floats into view, infuriating {{MTR}}. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] send {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}} into {{pkmn|battle}}. Weezing uses {{m|Poison Gas}} on them, making Ash and co. cough. Then Porygon regains composure and uses {{m|Conversion}}. Porygon's skin color becomes purple, like Weezing's. Porygon charges, with the group still riding it, right into Weezing and Arbok, [[Unable to battle|knocking them out]] of battle.

Team Rocket decides to send their prototype {{p|Porygon}} out next, which looks similar to Akihabara's Porygon except that it bears a "R" flag on its tail and a zero on its forehead. Team Rocket's Porygon uses {{m|Sharpen}} to give itself a swordlike beak and tries to attack the other Porygon, who has also changed shape to counter it. Ash and company decide to capitalize on the distraction to move the barrier Team Rocket built to hold back all the Poké Balls that were intended to be delivered to the Pokémon Centers. Team's Rocket's attempt to stop them were stopped by {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|ThunderShock}} yet again, then Akihabara's Porygon sent Team Rocket and the prototype Porygon blasting off again.

Ash and co. weren't out of the woods yet. Akihabara, represented by a floating TV screen, tells them that trouble is afoot again. Nurse Joy has hired another technician to put the anti-virus vaccine program into the computer, and it indiscriminately targets Team Rocket ''and'' Ash and his friends. In all his haste, the doctor forgot to tell Joy that the problem was caused by real people, not a virus. As the Vaccine targets the heroes, Porygon gathers Ash and co. back into the air and attempt to escape. From the ground, Team Rocket call Ash out for running away, but are corrected by Ash when he tells them to run from the Vaccine. The Vaccine launches a few rockets that destroy the remainder of the Poké Ball barrier in sparkly, flashing red and blue explosions. Meowth and the prototype Porygon rescue a panicking Jessie and James from the moving sea of Poké Balls and join Akihabara's Porygon in an attempt to escape.

The vaccine transforms into an object that resembles a flying spaceship, looking like a cross between a {{wp|Star Wars}} {{wp|X-wing}} and a {{wp|Syringe|medical needle}}, and takes to the air in pursuit. It launches more missiles that both of the Porygon dodge with difficulty. Inside the Center, Nurse Joy and the technician are amazed by the resilience of the "virus" and command the Vaccine to unleash a powerful attack. Revealing a gigantic particle gun, it locks onto the prototype Porygon and fires a huge beam, sending Team Rocket downward into a cyberspace bug hole created by the powerful attack. The passengers of Akihabara's Porygon shield their eyes from the blinding red and blue light. The bug holes created by the vaccine's beam cause a system error, and Joy orders the technician not to use the attack again.

Team Rocket awakens at the bottom of one of the bug pits, and realize that their Porygon is knocked out and that they cannot escape. The flying Vaccine locks onto them again, and it seems that it's all over for Team Rocket if it wasn't for a last minute save by {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. Held onto Akihabara's Porygon by Bulbasaur, Team Rocket weighs Porygon down and slows down its progress toward the exit portal. The vaccine locks onto Akihabara's Porygon, and fires four more missiles. Porygon is tired and cannot dodge the missiles.

Pikachu steps in and launches a destructive electric attack, detonating the missiles in a huge red and blue flashing explosion that covers the entire screen. It buys Porygon just enough time for it to escape through the exit portal as the next set of missiles hit the portal itself, destroying Akihabara's entire house.

In the remains of the mansion, Ash and co. are relieved to be back in the real world. Team Rocket spitefully thank Ash for saving them, and then quickly exit, forgetting their prototype Porygon.

The heroes decide to check in on the Pokémon Center. Nurse Joy is relieved to see the Transport system working again, oblivious to the fact that Ash and co. risked their lives to fix the system. In the end, however, Ash decides not to tell Joy.

* This episode caused roughly 600 seizures all over Japan, this was the reason the episode was banned.
* The seizures caused from this episode were parodied by ''The Simpsons'' in the episode "{{wp|Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo}}" and ''South Park'' in the episode "{{wp|Chinpokomon}}".
* There was originally going to be a New Year's Eve episode of Pokémon. It was never shown, not even in Japan. ''Electric Soldier Porygon'' is to blame for this.
* After the hiatus, the time slot changed from Tuesday to Thursday. The original schedule was as follows:

* The incident also caused ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' and ''[[EP053|The Purr-fect Hero]]'' to be rescheduled from March 3 and May 5, 1998, respectively, to July 9, 1998.
* Before the series restarted, a special report was aired on April 11, 1998 titled 検証番組アニメ　ポケットモンスター問題検証報告 ''Inspection program: inspection report of the anime Pocket Monsters problem''.
* Despite {{AP|Pikachu}} being the one to launch the seizure causing attack, {{p|Porygon}} has never had an important role in another episode since. (It should be noted that Pikachu has appeared in every Pokémon episode to date, barring [[Pokémon Chronicles]]). Its evolved form, {{p|Porygon2}}, is the only one out of the one hundred [[Generation II]] Pokémon that hasn't appeared in the anime and many believe that it never will. Also, many believe that Porygon's final form, {{p|Porygon-Z}}, will never appear either, and Porygon-Z is currently the only [[Generation IV]] Pokémon that hasn't appeared in the anime or movies yet. Porygon has appeared in the first four films as cameos however.
===Errors===
* When everyone first arrives back in the real world, Porygon is seemingly floating in mid-air above Misty's head, however, one cut later, it is between Misty and Brock.
*It shows the same scene before and after the last cut. The reason is unknown.

===Dub edits===
* According to [[Maddie Blaustein]], [[4Kids Entertainment]] did in fact dub this episode, reducing the speed and intensity of the flashing explosion to make it safe, but the episode has still never been shown because of the worldwide ban placed on it by the Japanese government.

==In other languages==
* Following the results of the Japanese premiere, this episode has never aired anywhere else in the world.

Yes, it finally got created. So no Pokémon Sunday? [[User:Pokemonemerfan1954|Pokemonemerfan1954]] 00:06, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
:No, there wasn't any new information on Pokémon Sunday. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jel]][[User Talk:Jello|lo]] 00:07, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

== Dragon-type? ==

How do you guys know they're Dragon-types? None of the information I read specifically said so. - [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 00:11, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
:It has been confrmed on Pokémon Daisuki Club as being atleast a Dragon-type. All this information was made sure to be confirmed before being added, so don't worry. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jel]][[User Talk:Jello|lo]] 00:15, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Have they been confirmed as being solely Dragon-type, though? If not, it seems a bit misleading to put that there, in my opinion. --[[User:Bdoing|Bdoing]] 01:22, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
:That we aren't sure of though. It could be purely a Dragon-type or a dual type, for which the second type is clearly unknown as of yet. But for the type that we do know, I don't see any harm in it being there until more information is revealed. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jel]][[User Talk:Jello|lo]] 01:24, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
::imo it's not 100% confirmed that they are dragon-types - Daisuki Club said that they are dragons, not that they are definitely dragon-''type''. But that's just how I see it I guess :V [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 01:43, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
:::I have to agree with the Dragon thing. They may of said they were "Dragons" but that's not a 100% sure thing that they are really Dragon types. If you look at past Pokémon, there are some that are considered dragons but don't have the Dragon type. {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}}, {{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Sceptile}} etc. - [[User:Ninterror|Ninterror]] 02:16, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
::::Agreed. Taking "Legendary Dragon Pokemon" to mean that they're dragon-type, despite that not being confirmed, seems to me like jumping the gun. That, and it seems very misleading to treat them as a pure-type just because you don't know its other type. Even a Dragon/??? type would be clearer than that. [[User:Plasma|Plasma]] 09:44, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

== Dragon/Electric type! ==

Ok, so the host of Pokemon Sunday accidentally posted on her blog that Zekrom was Dragon/Electric, and then shortly after she deleted it because of obvious reasons.

Did she identify Zekrom as a Dragon/Electric? If she didn't, it might as well be Electric/Dragon instead. The order of the types is important for the page. - [[User:Taylor|Taylor]] 12:44, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

I'm fairly certain that the screenshot is of the page after she edited it. Regardless, from what translations I've seen of it, she only says it's "''related'' to electric type pokemon", which does not guarantee it's an Electric type. Lugia is related to the water type, yet it's Psychic/Flying.--[[User:RegiRuler|Regi]][[User talk:RegiRuler|Ruler]] 16:09, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

::I'd say this puts a dent in the Light Type possibilities if Zekrom isn't Dark. ;-) But, yeah, while this is very interesting we can't state it as fact under the current circumstances.

The thought of that part of the blog being removed instead of changed leads me to believe that it was a leak instead of an error, as the error would most likely be fixed instead. Also, is it really better to count it soley as a dragon and not a Dragon/Unconfirmed, since ??? is considered a type?--[[User:Jmassacre|Jmassacre]] 13:18, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
:It's only been officially announced as Dragon so we can only mention the one type for now. Interesting as that blog entry is, claiming that Zekrom has a second type at all is still too close to rumour and speculation at this point. The type effectiveness section probably isn't accurate, though. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] |[[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|Talk Page]]| 19:02, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

==Sprite==
I know one of the screenshots from Black and White had a sprite of Zekrom in it. I've never uploaded an image before, so maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see any reasons why the sprite isn't here. If authenticity is a concern, we can just put the "THIS SPRITE IS FAKE" mouse-over on it. --[[User:Element03|Element03]] 04:31, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
:I think the issue is actually quality, rather than whether it is real or not. The screenshots we have are of relatively low quality, so any sprites pulled from them will be as well. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 04:47, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
::The sprites will only be put on if they are needed for a template. The spritebox will not be implemented until the games release, so the sprites are only needed for the evobox. So far, we will only put in a evobox if we know it evolves to something else or evolves from something else ({{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}), or if we know it will evolve (starters). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 05:20, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
:::Alright, I can wait, but would like to point that a pretty clear shot is at http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:BW_Prerelease_Zekrom_battle.png. I checked to make sure it matches up with current sprites, which it does, but I noticed that Zekrom is 94x90 pixels. Interesting to note, this is much larger than any previous sprite.--[[User:Element03|Element03]] 01:21, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

==Last?==
The article shows Bulbasaur as the next Pokémon. This used to be the case with Arceus, due to it ending the Pokédex. However, a version mascot has never ended the Pokédex, so why is Zekrom listed at the end? It is the last Pokémon known, but probably should not be listed as the last Pokémon. [[User:Digletdude|Digletdude]] 20:02, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
:We don't know what the last Pokemon is, though. It's listed there because it's... like you said, the last Pokemon known right now. It's only temporary until the game comes out. ▫▫'''[[User:Tina|ティナ]]'''[[User talk:Tina|♫]][[Special:Contributions/Tina|★]] 20:06, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
::However, other Generation V Pokémon have been shown with "???" as next and previous. We do know other Pokémon are Next and Previous, but we don't know how many may or may not be in between. Although there Pokédex numbers are missing, some, such as the starters can be ordered. This means, if Zekrom is ordered as last, others can be temporairly ordered. {{unsigned|Digletdude}}

==Physiology for the admins to implement==

Zekrom is a bipedal Pokemon of indefinable basis, but conveyed to be dragon-like. Zekrom is mainly a shade of dark gray, with darker patches on various portions of its body. It has red eyes and a small horn-like protrusion on the tip of its snout, with its head sporting a plume tipped with light-blue coloration. At the base of its neck is a black, stud-like feature, and atop its shoulders are similiar, larger features resembling armor padding.The bases of its wings also have such padding, and a fanned, splayed, seemingly webbed shape with a small "wing-spike" on one edge. The lower length of Zekrom's arms extenuate into splayed, seemingly webbed, somewhat baseball-mitt-like formations, with three-clawed, dark-colored hands on the undersides. The front portion of Zekrom's waist is black-colored, with its belly and thighs having thin striations down their length. The knees are black, as are the foremost parts of its three-clawed feet and spiked heels. Zekrom's tail consists of large, round, conical and spiked formation, likened to a electricity generator, with a black inner portion and bands on the tip of the outside portion. [[User:Steph|Steph]] 00:40, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

==Trivia for the admins to implement==
Zekrom is the first pokemon to have a type combination of Dragon and Electric.
