What do you think of my Porygon2?

(I know this Porygon2 is useless against Poison/Steel, but that's why you have five other Pokemon)

Porygon2 ;233;
Nature: Timid
Item: Lum Berry

Conversion 2
Toxic
Recover
Recycle

USAGE: Of course the starting attack would be Toxic. When I find the perfect opportunity, I'll use Conversion 2 to gain resistance. If my HP is nicked at all, I'll use Recover. It doesn't have Leftovers, because I have status to contend with. If I am afflicted with status, then Lum Berry will cure it, then I will use Recycle to get Lum Berry back. In other words, status problems will have no effect on me.

Hmm, Taunt>this thing so include one attacking move.

Porygon2 @ Lum Berry
Trait: Trace
EVs: 217 special attack, 184 special defence, 103 hp, 6 defence
Modest Nature
- Conversion Two
- Recycle
- Recover
- Psychic/Thunderbolt/HP Fire/Ice Beam

Tell us the rest of your team. Your strategy is great, just keep using your attacking move until you find a good time for recycle/recover/conversion two.

IMPORTANT: My EVs are experimental. There are probably other spreads that work much better.
 
4 EVs are equal to one stat point.

There are. I'm surprised, to say the least, the chaos952 didn't post this, but for the standard, (the one he posted), this is the spread: 228 HP/174 Def./108 SAtk.
 
He didn't ask for EVs, so I didn't post them. :)

conversion is pointless, it is pure novelty, just like blast burn and friends
 

PUrEHearT

Hyper Coordinator
Porygon used Conversion (1 or 2)
Pokemon used move
Porygon used recover
Pokemon used Taunt
Porygon used Ice Beam
Pokemon used Sub

in every single way, that pory fails... sry

Chaos's set is far by the best

sharpen
return / body slam
ice beam
recover

golden sceptile

Leaf Blade Power

Porygon2 needs...

Modest Nature
Chesto berry
max HP and SP attack

Moves:
Rest
recycle
ice beam
thunder bolt

Stragety:KO enemy with TB or IB if weak use rest and CBerry if getting weak use recycle and rest again you will be unstopable.

No, just no. ChestoResting fails so much it makes Shuckle look usable, Recycle doesn't do anything if you can't live long enough to use it. Recover>Rest because it DOESN'T leave you incapacitated for two turns. Rest is only for Pokémon that have the Defenses and HP to live through it, like Claydol, Skarmory, Suicune, and Snorlax.
