Porygon2

Porygon 2 is a Normal Pokémon that was introduced in Generation 2, but evolves from a Generation 1 Pokémon. Numerous aspects of its design make references to the fact that it is indeed an upgrade of Porygon 1, including the fact that it's less primitive and jagged looking as well as shorter and lighter. Despite being unevolved, it remains popular enough among competitive battlers that Smogon often puts it in a higher tier than Porygon-Z.
So far, its roles in the animé have been limited to small cameos; it's commonly believed that the "ban" that was imposed on Porygon 1 following the seizure controversy extends to Porygon 2 as well.

But wait! There's more!

Porygon-X is a Steel type. This, naturally, makes Porygon-Z a reference to Windows.
