Assuming this is 3rd gen, here's a porygon 2 moveset:

[email protected]
~Ice Beam
~Thunderbolt
~Psychic/HP Fire
~Thunder Wave

You should consult somebody else about the EVs and nature, as I haven't used pory for a LONG time. Boltbeam and thunder wave to slow down opponents.

Oh, don't worry. That's much better:

[email protected] Scarf
Timid Nature
EVs: 252 Speed, 252 Special Attack, 6 HP
~Thunderbolt
~Ice Beam
~HP Fire
~Psychic

There are plenty of other special attacks you can sub in for some of these, I just can't think of 'em right now.

Yeah, he could always use choice specs as well. He has a timid one, so we have to work with it.

Pokerus is random. I got it once but didn't know its meaning and it disappeared. Don't make my mistake, get slowbro in your party and spread the virus like crazy! I believe you keep it if you store the pokes in the PC.

Then...I'm no pokerus expert. There's a thing on serebii.net about it. That'll help you a lot.

Choice Specs just doesn't work with Timid-Z.

Gengar/Weavile can outrun it and hit him with Shadowball/Night slash.

Timid-Z is just simply not fast enough.

Porygon-Z is most common with Modest while holding Choice scarf. It can outspeed with Choice scarf.

if it's timid nature, you may as well give it Choice Specs or give it nasty plot.

Porygon @ Choice Specs
Timid Nature
252 SP ATK/252 SPD/4 HP
Ability: Adaptability
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam
-Tri-Attack/Psychic/Dark Pulse
-Tri-Attack/Hyperbeam/Hidden Power Fighting

nice.

Porygon @ Leftovers/Chople Berry/Lum Berry
Timid Nature
252 SPD/196 HP/60 SP ATK
Ability: Download
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Nasty Plot
-Substitute/Thunderwave/HP Fighting

nice. the strategy is that you basically bring it in against something like skarmory or tangrowth or some other defensive poke with below-average special defense, use substitute while they switch out (or paralyze the switch in or just use nasty plot), and then you have a free turn to use nasty plot. you may even be given more time for another nasty plot depending on what they switch in.

Timid-Z fails. Timid's speed is still far too slow. A large number of Gengar and Weavile pwn this thing straight.
