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.

A totally cool Pokemon that nobody loves, because it was blamed for all of those flashing lights, which were caused by Pikachu.
Person 1: What's that one floating Pokemon, it's red and blue, and it has yellow-orange eyes?
Person 2: Oh, you mean Porygon-Z? It's a cool Normal type!
Person 1: Really?! Cool!

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.

The most fucked up pokemon ever. It's a pink, deformed, bird like fucked up virtual creature in the 4th pokemon series. After they polished the original porygon the gamemakers ran out of ideas, used a shitload of drugs and created this thing.
