Even if it would go to 100 or even 102 like garchomp it would be ou minimum, this might be too much even with the current gimmick of tera it has the same feel as conversation but it doesn't take up a move slot, your z-move slot or take a turn to set up but it doesn't get an omni-boost. With more speed it wouldn't need the omni-boost and it would be an insane specs sweeper.

Flamethrower is a move that biologically has to make sense to be learned for the most part. A Pokemon needs to produce a combustible gas from inside itself which ignites when it breathes this gas. Genderless or otherwise amorphous Pokemon capable of learning BoltBeam normally can't do this, such as Starmie or Porygon2. Overheat makes sense though.

Funnily enough, the Porygon-Z theorem has not only been put to the test, i'd argue it has been proven. During generation 8, VGC had a cycle of formats that lasted a couple of months each, called Series, Series 6 started in September, and in it, the 10 most used mons in both the singles and doubles ladder in SwSh were banned, and suddenly, Porygon-Z (usually accompanied by Friend Guard Clefairy) became a SUPER THREAT, base 90 speed wasnt as mid as it used to be without Dragapult, especially after the -1 provided by Max Strike coming off of adaptability hyper beam, plus the added bulk provided by the Friend Guard Clefairy and the 2x HP of the Dynamax made Porygon-Z one of, if not THE strongest pokemon in the series 6 format. It only lasted for around 2 months, but Porygon-Z dominated a format

The philosophy behind Normal types has typically been "they can use almost any type's moves" when it comes to their movesets. Just about every Normal type made before Gen 6 gets the trio of Flamethrower, Ice Beam and Thunderbolt, and others even get access to moves like Fire Blast, Blizzard and Thunder respectively. I am 95% sure they intentionally didn't give Porygon-Z a fire attack when it was made in a generation where it was standard for Normal types to have a fire move.

porygon-z was actually a good dynamax abuser in vgc in at least one of the sets. Hyper beam turned max strike had enormous base power and was spread, and so you'd just use a support pokemon like friend guard clefairy to keep it alive as it presses adaptability max strike 3 times.

Here’s some move-set additions I feel like make sense for Porygon-Z thematically and could help with its viability Overheat/Heat Wave: These are Fire coverage for Porygon-Z. Overheat since as you mentioned, computers can overheat, and Heat Wave to reference the one Porygon hair dryer in Gen 7 Volt Switch: This is a pivot move that’d allow for Download to be more viable, and it’d help Porygon2 as well. Porygon’s lines are reminiscent of electric types despite not being electric, so I think the move makes sense for it Dazzling Gleam: Just an extra coverage option against things like Fighting types. A lot of viruses involve distorted graphics or pop-ups, which I think fits Porygon-Z well. Given it’s a Normal move, Techno Blast would be a massive edition for Porygon-Z as well, but it’s a mythical exclusive move, so I doubt it’d ever learn it. Thematically though, obviously it’s quite similar to Genesect, with it being the only other Download user and all

Considering this is a theorem, I’d say nominating another case, albeit not one ad extreme as PZ is, would be a good idea: Gyarados. This long boi was THE poster child for Dynamax’s brokenness in OU, with Togekiss and Excadrill not far behind, to the point you basically had to run Ditto to not get swept by it, and made the mechanic get banned before other nonsense like Garm. Like PZ, Z-moves also made it broken in UU, mainly Supersonic Skystrike, although hilariously enough Z-Splash was also an option, but SS was the main one to finally give it a flying nuke. And of course the mega just scrapped the flying type and gave it a different, better stab in dark, alongside a shit ton of bulk and the ability to destroy Rotom with Earthquake. It doesn’t tend to get banned from OMs the way PZ does, but it tends to get big boosts in them. For instance, in current stabmons it gets stuff like Jet Punch, Wave Crash, Aqua Step and Dragon Ascent. Tera hasn’t broken it, but its probably a great abuser, idk I don’t play UU.

Something I used to theorize is to make Porygon-Z the most busted Electric Type (before Xurk) by having it launch the strongest electric move with Adaptability. Simply by converting Porygon-Z into an electric type turn 1 and having Electric Terrain setup on that very turn as well, once hit with Electrify it's Hyper Beam becomes the most devastating electric attack. The only other one that could be similar would be Electrode's Explosion in a Trick Room being hit with Electrify however it lacks the physical strength for it. The Physical opposite would have to be pairing Boltund with Electivire using Electrify and Giga Impact turn 1 since Boltund can easily outspeed it. But most terrifying would be to pair Boltund with a Choice Specs Toxricity using Boom Burst while having Punk Rock as its ability. Or within 2 turns setup both charge and Electric Terrain to unleash a powerful Boom Burst or Hyper Voice if you don't want to KO Boltund that turn. This is easily one of the most terrifying move combinations which only has one similar matchup. Typhlosion and Sceptile using fire and grass pledge while the sun is up and Flash Fire being activated. It's a bit of setup but it also actively damages the foes with a sea of fire that lasts 4 turns. But yeah... it is weird the Porygons do not get access to any fire moves at all when considering: a balloon, a moon fairy, a four-armed mass of pure muscle, a palm tree, SLOWPOKE, Marowak (regular), LICKITUNG, RHYDON, TOGEPI, AND EVEN DUNSPARSE can learn Flamethrower. Almost forgot to mention this but the Geodude line can also learn flamethrower and fire blast. A rock. A ROCK can even use two powerful fire attacks yet this computer birb cannot... I can't even. Though Porygon shares the ability to use thunder and blizzard with Rattata. Fun video hope your day is well.

Actually, Porygon-Z was pretty devastating in doubles with dynamax, specifically during the series that banned the top 10 most used pokemon. The things that held it back most were gone, and nothing could take both a Max Hyper Beam AND Max Shadow Ball. Max normal moves lowered speed of targets, helping aid its speed issue, and max ghost lowered spdef of targets to make it hit even harder. I would argue it was the most influential pokemon in that meta.

There was a time in SWSH VGC where PZ was meta and primarily used to Dynamax. Max-Hyper Beam boosted by adaptability was incredibly strong and hit many Pokemon for neutrally and the Max normal effect lowering both opponents speed was crucial in the arms race for speed control. Dynamax made it difficult to quickly remove from play. Also it is worth mentioning the Agility set as combined with Porygon's Download and strong neutral coverage make it an effective sweeper. In later gens it is an effective wall breaker and may also Trick it's item.

When theorizing for a possible buff that's bot fun and creative and enhances his traits and flavor and doesn't rely on generational gimmicks I came up with this: Changing his stats doesn't feel realistic and is kind of a lazy move, giving him a unique ability would be cool but it would waste the two great ones he already has, and fixing his movepool is not needed since he already has plenty of coverage with the exception of maybe adding Heat Wave to the mix, this leaves only one gameplay element: the item I was thinking of an item that acted like a one time use Protean, unless you use a Normal type move in which case it doesn't activate and waits for the next one, maybe once you activate it you can reset it by returning to the Normal type by using a Normal type move and then repeat the process, but that would be perhaps too complicated and convoluted This item would be either P-Z specific or restricted to the Normal type only, mainly for balance reasons since it might be abusable by stronger Pokémon This would allow Porygon-Z to get Adaptability boosts on each one of his moves, it makes use of his personal gimmick of changing type through Conversion but without wasting a move slot and essentially gives him the power of Choice Specs without restricting his ability to abuse his vast coverage, it doesn't fix his below average speed but this newfound power can perhaps make up for it

As an almost exclusively gen 3/ gen 4 player the Porygon line scares me. I have always used suicune and the number of times I tried to set up in it only to get bent over by zap cannon or thunderbolt is amazing. Even by tri attack and getting para haxxed is crazy.

There were a few VGC metagames in Sw/Sh where you'd somewhat consistently see Porygon Z Dynamaxed, going for a pretty deadly Max Strike off Hyper Beam. But Porygon-2 was a defensive staple and got more representation.

The funny thing is, in my experience PZ works best when not optimizing. Agility Nasty plot Tri attack Prefered coverage move (like dark pulse) Hold PZ in the back to clear out some threats and then you are able to send in PZ to clean up the oponent's team. Being able to set up either agility or nasty plot as needed. PZ works fantastic as a REACTIVE pokemon, instead of an active pokemon. Alternatively set up both agility and nasty plot against the oponent's tank/hazard setter or something and you have a serious threat, at the cost of hard hitting limited coverage. Or alternatively if you're extra ballsy; Invest no points in speed and sp.attack and instead make PZ a tanky set-up mon. It aint good, but it's hilarious to see someone's reaction when PZ is able to tank a hit😂
@blip_exists
Жыл бұрын
Double Dance Porygon-Z is pretty great, and I personally prefer just agiliity, and extra coverage (cause Porygon-Z hits like a truck already). Conversely to tanky-Z, set up P2 can work really well, due to its great bulk.
