Porygon's great ability in Download and wide range of coverage options make it a potent wallbreaker in LC, dealing massive damage to a majority of the tier. Tri Attack acts as Porygon's main STAB option, comfortably dealing with foes that do not resist it, primarily Fighting-types like Mienfoo. BoltBeam coverage in Thunderbolt and Ice Beam threaten a myriad of threats, with the former dealing with Pokemon such as Staryu and Vullaby, and the latter taking care of Pokemon like Onix, while Trick cripples walls such as Ferroseed. However, Porygon is susceptible to priority users such as Timburr and Grookey and can be easily dealt with by Trapinch if locked into the wrong move. Pokemon like Abra and Spritzee pair well with Porygon by threatening Fighting-types like Mienfoo and Timburr. Those same Fighting-type Pokemon also team up well with Porygon, as they deal with Porygon's primary switch-ins, Ferroseed and Pawniard.
