Evolve Porygon

Porygon is a completely digital Pokémon, and its Conversion ability allows you to match the skills of your opponent. Evolving Porygon into Porygon2 requires a special item called Up-Grade, while evolving Porygon2 into Porygon-Z requires the Dubious Disc item. You can evolve Porygon starting in Gen 2 (Gold, Silver, and Crystal)
