This theory falls apart when you realise you can obtain Porygon Z before going to the distortion world, and so it was created BEFORE Cyrus was trapped there. Everything else is pretty solid, it just means that the Dubious Disc wasn't created to save Cyrus, but for another reason entirely before Team Galactic started their plans.

another issue is that, if this was the case, the Dubious Disc must have either been INCREDIBLY rushed or had been in developement before Ross joined Team Galactic (if he did at all, for all we know Team Galactic could have worked on a Dubious Disc without the involvement of a former SilphCo employe, which just makes it all the more dubious) as the Johto Games and Sinnoh games take place at the same time (see the Red Gyarados being mentioned on tv in gen4) obviously its hard to say how long it took for the events in either game to play out, but it still seems like the timeframe is incredibly narrow for this to take place So in my opinion Ross, while being a nice connecting piece, creates more issues for the theory's timeframe than he helps to explain things.

The sense behind outfitting a Pokemon to be designed for exploration of alien worlds is still sound, though. It could be that they tried to design Porygon Z to do what Porygon 2 had originally been intended to do, but without a team of programmers to check and improve the code (given that Team Galactic was a criminal organization and probably couldn't spare the resources to recruit more,) the Dubious Disc ended up with unstable code that simply couldn't be fixed quickly enough for Cyrus and his plans.

Maybe porygon Z was a back up plan in case they could get the lake trio they used porygon and upgraded it for dimensions travel as the two legendary Pokémon live in “Alien worlds”. However due to little information on how the worlds work they tried to make it be able to adapt to many environments. However that overloaded the data and made porygon Z glitch out. Due to it having to much stuff and not enough space. Also porygon Z can have the ability: (Adaptability) which I think helps my theory.

I’m of the belief that Porygon Z and the dubious disc were actually made by the AETHER FOUNDATION in a time before they pursued Type: Null research. In the Alola games, all Porygon-related items and even Porygon itself are obtained from Aether-related people. Gladion uses a Porygon Z. It’s purpose to explore alien dimensions fits the MO of the Aether Foundation and the pursuit of Ultra Beasts. And like Type: Null, it possesses type changing abilities to adapt to foreign environments (thru the Conversion moves). My belief, is that the Aether Foundation developed the Dubious Disc after seeing Porygon’s potential under Silph Co. They hoped to upgrade it to be fit to send through Ultra Wormholes. But after their own patch was deemed too buggy, they distanced themselves from the research. But the Dubious Disc still leaked before the events of DPPt, falling into the hands of Team Galactic, who have an interested in space and time in general.

Porygon is an Appmon. Digimon come from another dimension, like Ultra Beasts. Appmon come from the human dimension, like Pokémon. Weirdly Appmon are like a month older than Ultra Beasts; these two franchises are goddamn quantum entangled. Did you know Tamagotchi, which Digimon was an offshoot off, released a month after Pokémon? - It was only after Pokémon started adding V-Pet elements in Yellow that Digimon went multimedia, and it is known from interviews Nintendo felt threatened by V-Pets in those days. Bandai Namco are the owners of Digimon, and if you know the lore of both Pokémon and Digimon, their lastest game Pokémon Snap might just get you thinking about the Royal Knights.

I personally wish Porygon2 got branching evolution from Silph Co. that was its intended evolution into a Porygon3 and it could finally achieve its main purpose! Also, has anyone ever really considered that the Dubious Disk literally turns Porygon2's head upside down? Like that spike on Porygon-Z's head is its neck from Porygon2... No wonder it acts weird! If that happened to me I'd be acting strange, too! Because I'd be dead...

One problem with the theory, you can get the dubious disc before Cyrus ever disappears. A simple retcon could be that team Galactic hired Ross to make Porygon-Z so it could explore the Distortion world. When he failed, they got rid of him which would explain why he doesn’t show up in dppt. He probably went back to Johto or something. My guess is that Charon created it to explore the distortion world. Although he’s a genius, he doesn’t have access to any of the resources at silph co so he messed up the code. It would also explain why Team Galactic is in possession of the Up-Grade because he probably studied it in order to figure out how to reverse engineer the code. Makes sense to me.

I'm willing to admit I may have over thought this, but hear me out: Lockstin mentions that fixing Porygon's flight should have been a primary concern for the developers of the pokemon, but instead, they focused on making round. My argument is that making the pokemon round WAS their attempt, at least the most visible and obvious aspect thereof, at making the pokemon fly better. Firstly, we must consider how flight would be achieved. In the atmosphere, this is generally achieved (at least in planes) by forcing air around a wing to create lift. For this to happen, the air mist be traveling faster on the top side of the wing, so as to create a vacuum of air to generate the lift. Planes accomplish that by having a wing that while relatively flat on the bottom, have a larger and curved surface on top. This means the air travelling over the top of the wing has a longer distance to travel, and must therefore go faster in order to meet the air travelling across the wing's bottom (if the air didn't meet together, it would create a vacuum of air behind the wing, pulling the air over the top faster, that's how this works). Thinking about a plane's wing's shape, it is easier to see why they chose the design for porygon they did. In order to force the air over Porygon's body, however, the pokemon would have to be in motion. From here, the general shape of the pokemon seems to lend itself to being thrust forward from behind by some invisible energy. That makes sense, as it forgot the need for wings in the sense the birds use them, which wouldn't work in the vacuum of space, anyways. Opting to propel the pokemon through space using thrust created via Newton's third law in space, while generating lift in Earth's atmosphere using Bernoulli's principle. This Pokemon's design is low-key genius. Porygon was created initially in an environment where a high poly count wouldn't be possible, giving it the crude appearance it has. By smoothing the edges, though, drag is reduced. Rounder and sharper objects tend to behave more aerodynamically than do flat, angular surfaces. This means that Porygon2 would fly better, and it may even execute better flight control, too. This argument would be further strengthened if Porygon2 has a higher speed stat, which I'll check after I write this. I've always loved porygon, but this really makes me appreciate the design and thought that went into this. Even if by coincidence, the end product is beautiful! EDIT: Porygon2's speed is 60, while Porygon's is 40.

Slight issue here: You find the Disc _before_ Cyrus gets smacked by Giratina. But this is a simple fix. Porygon-Z may have been designed as part of a rescue contingency, one Cyrus didn't give enough time for proper development.

I was really hoping to see someone else mention when you get the dubious disk, and the contingency plan thing is a nice idea, but I don't think they expected Giratina to show up at all. The plan was 1. Catch the lake guardians 2. Make the red chain 3. Use them to control Dialga and Palkia 4. Remake the world in his image. Giratina showed up right the heck outta nowhere, surprising everyone (since the only real buildup to it was the title screen), so I doubt they had a plan to deal with it if they appeared.

I wonder if Rotom might have anything to do with it. Maybe the dubious disc is an upgrade that rotom messed with, as it is a piece of technology, and when it got applied to porygon 2 it was all glitched. An un-rotomized dubious disc might give us a perfect Porygon.

Team Galactic being the ones who made Porygon-Z to try to rescue Cyrus sorta makes sense since it's a post-game only pokémon in the original Diamond and Pearl. So obviously the player wouldn't be able to get it before the climax of the game.

That was something I wish Lockstin had explained. In the games, when is the earliest you can access Porygon-Z/when do NPC trainers have it. If you can sight it before Cyrus' defeat, things kind of fall apart. And I think team Galactic would have a reason to try to create it even in Diamond or Pearl, meaning Porygon-Z doesn't have to be a version exclusive for the theory to work either. It's just the motivation is the most solid in Platinum

@borisbutterscotch9482

The one big problem I see with this theory is that the dubious disc is an item that can be found in team galactic's hideout, which you visit before Cyrus is even in the distortion world, let alone "trapped" there. I guess you could say the rushed code was meant for something else and they changed it to make Porygon Z, but if you trade Porygon 2 with the dubious disc that you can obtain before Cyrus goes to the distortion world, you still get a Porygon Z. Neat theory either way though.

Uhhh. No. Cyrus is named Cyrus because of David Koresh (a famous cult leader whose name, Koresh, translates to Cyrus, as in King Cyrus of the Bible.) As far as Akagi, it’s probably a reference to the fact Cyrus is literally a volcano waiting to explode, seemingly dormant/inactive but in truth seething with rage and emotionality to a boiling point.

I am still of the belief that giratina was never "banished" to the distortion world... but stationed... its actions during platinum are very deliberate, dragging cyrus into the distortion world right at the brink of his success... thus saving the world in its own way... its dex entry also says that it can see into the normal world through mirrors which is almost like a security guard watching security cam footage, and, although it probably could have easily killed you, it takes a more neutral stance towards you until you approach it (if i recall correctly, it might actually attack you) essentially only battling you when you threaten it... being frank... it can (and does) free itself from the distortion world as well... it recieves no outside help to physically drag cyrus into the distortion world itself, not to mention that you encounter giratina in the normal world in pokemon diamond and pearl... perhaps looking for the escaped cyrus to bring him to a place where he cant hurt anyone anymore

For the anime, its very possible they will find him. The hints come from crown tundra’s max lair lore. The max lair was infected with ultra wormhole energy which is why it’s pulling pokemon from different dimensions. The explanation to this was from the broken description of adventure 4 of crown tundra, where it mentions professor mohn. And the scientists stationed there are from burnet’s dimensional research lab. In the anime, the train the aether fam are currently taking shows a snowy landscape, presumably following magearna to galar’s crown tundra.
