Porygon is a controversial Pokemon that is infamous for its debut episode titled “Electric Soldier Porygon”.
A flashing
Strobe effect was seen throughout the episode, causing hundreds of children to be hospitalised from seizures. Porygon has not had a major role in another episode since.
Despite this, he has two evolutions, Porygon 2 and Porygon Z, although all of them have only made very brief cameos.
His appearance is very geometric and is a design that I personally quite like.

The original episode that Porygon appears in is available online but is not recommended to those with sensitivity towards flashing lights.

Get the Porygon mug.A Pokémon from the popular game, manga and Anime known as Pokémon. Ever since its first debut in the anime, it has been hated by Anime-only fans for being related to the flashing lights in said debut episode that caused a lot of kids to get seizures. However, Porygon itself had nothing to do with the lights and the culprit was in fact another Pokémon, the most popular among the all,Pikachu. So why is Pikachu not banned from the anime or shunned by many fans? Simple! It is the main character's, Ash or Satoshi in Japanese, most used Pokémon. It was and still is to popular to get much hate for the seizures it caused. Not only that, its pretty overrated. Porygon has an evolution which also has an evolution,Porygon2 and PorygonZ respectively. Porygon is based of Origami and computer coding(I believe). Its name draws origins from Polygons.

Get the Porygon-Z mug.The effect that happens in a situation where an innocent bystander is accused and punished for committing an action or crime that they did not make because the real perpetrator is too famous or essential to be punished.
This is referenced by the infamous incident where an episode of Pokémon was aired in Japan and gave numerous kids seizures due to rapidly flashing lights, caused by an attack from Pikachu. Since Pikachu was and still is the poster boy for the Pokémon franchise, Porygon, the starring Pokémon of the episode, was blamed and punished instead despite not being responsible for it.

Person 1: Why am I being punished for something I didn't do? It was clearly Jimmy's fault!
Person 2: It's the Porygon Effect; Jimmy's too important to be punished.
