The Porygon line should have been Electric/Steel

Why not Normal instead? It's a pretty bulky type and allow him to access a lot of coverage.

There's nothing Steel about them. Electric and/or Psychic would make more sense.

I get where you're coming from but having a type change gimmick and not being normal would be kinda weird.

Porygon should be Psychic-Electric, but it'd be weak to... bug

It's data, of course it's weak to bugs.

That would be weird considering Porygon-Z is, well, "bugged".

well the original idea was for porygon to constantly switch types using conversion (later conversion 2) so normal type makes complete sense

problem is they were never worth using by themselves, if they also raised a relevant stat or acted like protect then maybe but not in their current form

If Ghosts can be seen as bodies who aren't strictly physical, then I'd have loved to see a Normal/Ghost or Ghost/Electric Porygon, seeing how it's basically sentient data that materialise through various ways.

Kind of, but not very well. A computer bug is still a バグ (bagu, bug) in Japanese, while an actual bug is a 虫 (mushi). So the link with the English word for 'bug' still exists, but it's probably too far-fetched for Pokemon's primary target audience.

There's nothing about it that's suiting to Steel type.

Electric/Psychic, though?

Yes. They're mostly plastic, which is decidedly not Steel.
