Porygon2

Unlimited;
well, the only good thing about him is that you can use his power once during your turn, which gets you up to 6 cards.
this seems kind of unnecessary with all the draw cards here.
it's hp is a bit low and it has a terrible weakness. I wouldn't use it.
2/5

Modified:
This is very hard, I think it's poke-power is extremely useful here, but battle frontier stops it, and it's not a great attacker either.
This card is good, but we already got a useful stage 1 in this format which I think, is better.
Magcargo doesn't get shut down by battle frontier and it's first attack is useful in some situations.
but Porygon2 is definitely a good card.
3/5

Limited:
no battle frontier here, thus making this card excellent.
it's a stage 1, it needs colorless energy, and has a power which lets you draw cards, and it also is colorless type (there are pretty much colorless-weak pokemon in Delta Species) wow...just wow
4.5/5

Today's card is Porygon 2 from Delta Species

Ah yes, my old friend of Porygon 2. I've always had a thing for this Poke. He always seems to have something really cool with him, like his power or attack, but still falls just short of playable. And this one is no exception :-\. Don't get me wrong, his power rocks the hizouse. Think about the potential. Playing a turn 2 killer like raindance or Vile EX: use all your trainers and Pokes to get everything set up, then use his power to get a new hand. Wow. Talk about speed. He's even colorless which makes him more splashable. Problem, is that he's an evolution with a really crummy basic. So, he rocks, its just the process of getting him that doesn't work very well. Tyrogue bait. His low HP and retreat cost will also be a problem if you are able to get him out. I could see him work when someone already has control of the game, but like always, just doesn't see to make the cut of playable. Sorry Porygon 2... maybe someday they'll make a good one of you. However...

...Tis the season to be jolly...
