TPC has a guidebook on how to accurately portray the Pokemon world in products, and it makes it clear that this is not the case.

>Pokemon are to be considered living things, so they should never be described as data of any sort. In the video game and animation, Pokemon can be stored and traded via a PC. This is a means of holding large numbers of Pokemon but does not reduce Pokemon themselves to simple or literal data.

The only time Pokemon are turned into a "digital form" is for a short time when they're being transferred through the PC or being traded.

All Pokemon are Digimon because it's a game.

Digimon are digital in their universe. Pokemon are not digital in their universe, they're organic creatures.

This was solely for marketing purposes and have no influence on the lore of Pokemon what so ever.

>Mac
Porygon: Shitmon, not good for anything and never was.
>PC
Porygon 2 : Only good when user takes matters into their own hands and adds something extra (evolite)
>Unstable Linux distro
Porygon Z: Has it's uses but is too flawed to really ever take the place of Porygon 2 w/ evolite, better SP.Atk sweepers exist anyway.

fun fact, the pokemon's name was originally "Polygon" but japs can't pronounce L, hence "Porygon"

That's just to separate it from Digimon for marketing reasons. That makes literally zero sense lore wise. Then again, they constantly introduce shit that makes no sense in an effort to either appeal to kids or to try and fill plotholes that never needed filling.

The whole point of marketing is to present the series in a way that makes you want to consume product and get excited for next products. Accuracy is irrelevant.

No, the purpose of marketing is to spread it to as many audiences as possible, whether that be disingenuous or not. Money is what matters when it comes to marketing and spreading the product.

If the product isn't like what was advertised, people are going to get pissed and not buy your next product. Inaccurate marketing doesn't work for that reason.

CEOs and the marketing team do not care about that. They care about money. Nothing more. Besides you've seen it yourself, people will eat up anything as long as the marketing and initial impression are good regardless of a prior product, especially when it comes to Pokemon.

Porygon isn't a digicore with a surrounding model.
And that's when you don't go by the yokai-like interpretations of digimon.

As if anyone at TPC would even know what Digimon is.
