Pokemon GO: Catch Porygon - Here's how
Although Porygon is not a legendary Pokemon, it is difficult to catch it in Pokemon GO. We reveal how you can still get the rare pocket monster.
Catch Porygon in Pokemon GO
Although Porygon's angular body looks like a psycho-pokemon, it is of the "normal" type. You can take advantage of this information when catching:
- While it is theoretically possible to encounter a Porygon anywhere, it is most likely in residential areas and city centers.
- In addition, there are always so-called Pokemon nests. These are small areas in your area in which a large number of Pokemon spawn for two weeks. Which nest appears depends on chance. It can therefore be worth visiting the major sights of your city every two weeks.
- Overall, however, you should have a lot of patience when hunting Porygon. The Pokemon has the rarity "Epic", so spawns the least by far. Togetic or Lapras are on the same level with him - even the popular start Pokémon Charmander and Co. are more common.
Pokemon GO: Other Paths to Porygon
In addition to its rarity, Porygon has another special feature: it does not hatch from any egg. So you can't get the Pokemon by just running and hatching. The arena update in June 2017 does not help either. Porygon is currently not one of the chosen Pokémon that can be caught in raid battles. If something changes here, we will inform you on this page.
