#39 Porygon - Base (base1)
Porygon is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 30 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It is part of the Base set, released in 1999, and designed by artist Tomoaki Imakuni. The card includes two unique attacks named Conversion 1 and Conversion 2, both requiring Colorless energy to activate. Conversion 1 allows the player to change a defending Pokémon’s Weakness to any type except Colorless if it has one. Conversion 2 modifies Porygon’s Resistance to a chosen type other than Colorless, provided two Colorless energy are used. Porygon has a Psychic resistance of -30 and a Fighting weakness that deals double damage. Its flavor text describes it as a Pokémon composed entirely of programming code, capable of navigating cyberspace freely. This card’s design emphasizes adaptability through its ability to alter weaknesses and resistances dynamically.
