I know all about the whole Episode where Japenese kids went to the hospital, but why couldnt they make another ep with it in it? Porygon 2 is sweet too. Who thinks that they should be put into the Anime? Ash could even catch a Porygon. But even if they did encounter one in the anime, where would it be because they cant be wild pokemon.

Yeah, ok!
The writers avoided the Porygon line after the incident to avoid controversy. They're probably allowing a lot of time to pass before they feel "secure" making an episode about Porygon again without upsetting any victims of the previous incident.

Well said, and there are probably still kids in Japan who hate Porygon because it made them get seizures

I'll act like a smartass, by telling you that it was actually Pikachu and the missile that caused the flashing lights, Porygon was just there. I should know, I saw a clip of that infamous scene.

Porygon and Porygon 2 do need to appear again, but the chances of that happening, is 0.9%

Nice. But you autofail for not actually watching the episode. The entire episode was the was the cause, but only one scene in specific triggered the big chain of seizures. The entire episode was filled with flashing white and yellow lights along with flashing red to blue lights.

Porygon has had cameos (World of Pokemon scene) but not an important role (except the banned episode) and I don't see it getting one. Maybe a minor trainer might get Porygon 2 but I don't see it.

the japanese goverment probably banned Porygon/2 from appearing in the anime... even if they wanted to put a story about Porygon, they're not allowed to.

Do you really think that after the ep, they'd allow Ash to catch Porygon? I doubt any of them would re-appear.

It's a shame since Porygon 2 was one of my favourite G/S/C Pokemon.

Have either Porygon or Porygon 2 made an appearence in Oaks lectures?

but it DID re-appear but it didn't DO anything, it simply hovered there and we all know WHY that was

What episode was that? :S

Erm well I doubt Porygon 2 will ever appear, if it did it would be nice and it would stop all of these topics from ever comming up again. But I really wouldn't mind seeing Porygon or Porygon 2 but then again I wouldn't care if they didn't appear.

It wasn't an episode, it was the intro to the fourth movie.
On topic, I doubt it's ever going to happen thanks to the bad reputation the seizure ep gave Porygon.
I don't really care about Porygon not appearing again, as I despise the wretched digi-lump, but Porygon2 would be nice, and it has potential for a good episode. Here's what could happen.........
The gang win a tour around Silph Co., and while they are being taken around they are showed some people attempting to make an upgrade for Porygon. However, Team Rocket steal the upgrade, use it on a Porygon (evolving it) and use the new Pokemon to enter cyberspace. They then start deleting and hacking computers all over Kanto, and it's up to the gang and a young upstart scientist to stop them. It would be a two parter, and it would end with the scientist proving himself by hacking into the computer mainframe for all of Kanto and deleting all the Porygons. Because of this, Team Rocket loose there steed and are lost into cyberspace........ Until a few eps later, when they escape to Giovanni with the upgrade, and he uses it to activate a massive mecha he's been constructing!
*Ahem*

ah but they were banned for different reasons, Porygon was banne because it actually gave people fits. Also most of those episodes were banned OUTSIDE Japan.

gee that's swell
Won't happen

People are somehow still freaked out about the whole "seizure" thing. They'll never show Porygon again and they won't show Porygon 2.

I'd love to see Porygon 2 in the show though!
