In the anime

Porygon2 is the only Generation II Pokémon to never appear in the anime. Popular opinion is that this is because of the incident involving Porygon in EP038, でんのうせんしポリゴン (Computer Soldier Porygon).

In the manga

Green bought a Porygon. in Celadon City. In the GSC saga, it evolved into Porygon2.

In the TCG

Other appearances

Super Smash Brothers Melee

When released from a Pokéball, Porygon2 will immediately use a powerful Tackle attack that sends opponents flying. The attack cannot be escaped due to the speed in which it happens but Porygon2 is harmless once the attack has finished.

Trivia

Porygon2 is the only Pokémon with a numerical figure in it's name.

Origin

Like Porygon, it seems to be based on the concept of a bird created by computer graphics software.

Name origin

Porygon2's name origin is rather straightforward. It is the second in its line of evolution, evolving from Porygon. Thus, it is the second Porygon, whose name is a misspelling of polygon.
