What if the Porygon incident never occurred? Could your boy

Oh what could have been. Now I feel like Porygon got snubbed big time.

Porygon is designed to infiltrate cyberspace but only operates at a software level when doing so.

It does not possess machinery like Rotom, a poltergeist, does.

Did you make this thread just for the pun?

>>31623425
We could have gotten a regular Pokedex with Porygon floating around on the screen instead of 70% of the bottom screen being Rotom's mug

>>31623411
Yep. Rotom doesn't fit the gen 1 wank theme, if Porygon was allowed to be made popular again, they'd use it.

>waaah le genwunners boogeymen

When will you ever tire of this shit, /vp/?

Still revelant in gen 2 and 4, GF doesn't give a fuck about the incident, he got cucked from the anime thougth.

Porygon fared better than Kadabra. Kadabra got cucked in both the card game and the videogame because of the Yuri Geller thing.

- No Kadabra cards, replaced with special card that evolves Abra into Alakazam
- Everstone will fail to prevent Kadabra evolving. It's the only trade evolution where Everstone doesn't work.

The anime too. It only got a single appearance as a random background mon in a filler after Geller lost his shit. Prior to that it appeared every now and then, while Alakazam was rare.

This.

Also this, it's infuriating that someone I had never heard of prior decided that a reference to him needed to be snuffed out. Like, seriously? Why not use the booming popularity of something to have a positive influence on yourself? Now all we remember him as is that guy that effectively got rid of a Pokémon for no good reason. No one likes him.

>>31626687
How the fuck have you not heard of Uri Geller?

>>31626687
Uri Geller is Jewish and he claimed that the two red bolts and the red star on Kadabra were nazi symbols. The jap name of Kadabra is almost identical to Uri's name in jap

>>31623432
But I like Rotom.
It's a cute Pokemon.

This is literally the first time I ever heard about this. I had no idea kadabra was banished over stupid shit. I guess I never thought too much about why kadabra was so absent because it's an ugly, unmemorable design.
