Porygon #39 — Base Set
Porygon sits between Poliwhirl and Raticate in binder order. The fetched record gives it as a Uncommon Colorless-type Pokémon with 30 HP, drawn by Tomoaki Imakuni.
CATALOGUED · NOT YET PRICED
The sold-comp ledger contains zero rows for Porygon. A price appears here when at least eight verified sold lots for one exact printing and grade are in the ledger — that is the sample size the median is allowed to be computed from. No estimate, no range, no placeholder.

Porygon was printed without a holofoil panel; 16 of the 102 cards carry one. By checklist position it is 39 of 102, which puts it in the middle third of the binder. Its binder neighbours are Poliwhirl (#38) and Raticate (#40). 63 Base Set cards print a higher HP than its 30.
Which printing you are holding
Porygon was printed three times over, and the three do not trade alike. 1st Edition carries the edition stamp and a flat frame; Shadowless drops the stamp and keeps the flat frame; Unlimited restores the drop shadow. Each printing of Porygon therefore gets its own cell here, never one blended number.
