Porygon, my bitter rival. Walling my precious murk makes me dislike this pokemon immensely when opponents use it. But when I use it, it.....gets toxic stalled to death. (.cry) BUT NO MORE shall precious porygon get set up on, because we often overlook and amazing move in it's arsenal. Without Further Ado, Porygon

This set is one of the most surprising things to not have been done yet. This bulky attacker porygon focuses more on attacking without the fear of death than crippling opponents.But it still CAN cripple opponents. Say hello to Natu #2,
Magic coat porygon. Toxic is one of the most debilitating statuses to have on porygon, but no more shall the fear plague you. With Magic bounce's +4 priority, you will guaranteedly bounce back pretty much any status move ever period. Prankster Roar riolu givin you problems? Not anymore. Bounce that roar right back at it, or psychic it for massive damage. Psychic is a must on this set, because it hits fighting types p hard bar scraggy. Ice beam hits sand teams hard, while blizzard is for those with snover support, or just those who want to play risque. It also hits murkrow, vullaby, and shroomish hard. This porygon is actually bulky enough to tank hits too, so you won't just be dying in 1 hit to the stronkest attacks. Here are some calcs of attacks you might fear and what you could hit back with
Drilbur
236+ Atk Drilbur Earthquake vs. 156 HP / 116 Def Eviolite Porygon: 9-12 (36 - 48%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
236+ SpA Porygon Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Drilbur: 18-22 (81.81 - 100%) -- 6.25% chance to OHKO
SD set at +2 with evio will not OHKO porygon unless a crit, or spikes/SR has been laid
Note:Be careful around fighting types with this set. Try to hit them hard on the switch-in, or they'll hit you harder 1-on-1
Lileep
236+ SpA Porygon Ice Beam vs. 228 HP / 60 SpD Eviolite Lileep: 12-16 (46.15 - 61.53%) -- 96.48% chance to 2HKO
Misdreavus
236+ SpA Porygon Shadow Ball vs. 36 HP / 80 SpD Eviolite Misdreavus: 10-14 (43.47 - 60.86%) -- 88.67% chance to 2HKO
Foongus
236+ SpA Porygon Psychic vs. 124 HP / 76 SpD Eviolite Foongus: 14-18 (56 - 72%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(Note:Magic coat spore back at foongus for maximum rage, then you can bring in substitute attacker/setup sweeper to do some work
Pokes that are 2HKO/OHKO''ed by porygon: Mienfoo (although it can OHKO with HJK), Shroomish, Croagunk, Dwebble, murkrow's offensive variants are OHKO'ed, natu, hippopotas and more...
Threats: Mienfoo with HJK, scraggy, timburr, defensive chinchou, bronzor (although his rocks/status will get reflected) ferroseed (Same case as bronzor). As usual most steel types hate porygon, these fighting types get hit hard on the switch (bar scraggy), but if brought in as revenge, switch out. Scraggy sets up all over porygon, and it can't do anything back. Not even putting t-wave would help unless it ran moxie. But this porygon trolls most status pokes/entry hazard setting pokes, and it's bulky enough to take a hit, and stronk enough to Score some nice kills.
Magic coat 4ever ;~;
Edit:If you use a sharpen set that can beat steel types, you'll prolly get my vote :3
