Assuming this was an intentional final game.
The franchise as a whole can't go 10 seconds without fucking something up now it seems. Sigh...

There's a possible reason this is happening: the game autosaves on literally everything you do. If you move, it saves, if you attack, it saves, if you throw a Doom Seed at one of your teammates just because you wanted to fuck around, it saves. So saves becoming corrupted in some way if you pull specific things in a specific sequence is bound to happen, because you can't just reset and it'll go back to its previous save point, you'll just be placed back into whatever the game autosaved to, even if it's some sort of loop it can't get out of.
I think you train bug types by having them bump into lightbulbs over and over.
Ice types just give everyone the cold shoulder. Normal types just be more normal? I assume fairy types make a twitter account or what ever the Pokemon version of it is, and just spend more and more time on it.
Ghost types. Uh? Die harder? I would guess dark types start running all the illegal stuff, selling poke-nip and Rare Candies to trainers.
Big types would probably depend on the type of bug. Scyther would focus on maneuverability and speed, sharpness of blades...Pinser would be more defense and strength oriented, like crushing rocks in its pinchers to build up durability...ect
Temtem has shown that Pokemon's formula doesn't make an mmo by itself. It needs a LOT more work to happen.
SpaceEngine can pull off the entire universe down to a meter scale (albeit procedural), so it's possible. Also that all regions thing would be a good idea. One could fly around the PokeWorld using that soaring through the sky thing from OR/AS. I think it would look something like Earth, with the Gen I-IV regions together like Not Japan of the Not Earth. Maybe it could be a MMO like you say. I prefer offline that could go online.
I would say so it would have as few weaknesses as possible and later utilize special normal type moves like tri-attack. Also, at the time it was created, they restricted ghost typing to the Gengar line. Also, seeing as its artificially made, it can be assumed that its normal typing was an intentional element in its design.
To add on further, Porygon is effectively a living, adaptational program designed to change and mold to a given situation (the one fateful episode where Porygon appeared depicts this).
It's a shame that its dex entries imply that something went terribly wrong with Z's programming during its evolution.
To add on further again, not only do they like to cast type-changing Pokemon as normal as a baseline (the most obvious exception being Oricorio, which has no baseline form), but Normal is the type they use for types that don't exist yet. Like fairy type, or the theoretical 'Sound' type. In addition, if they made Porygon electric, they'd then have to answer why following artificial Pokemon (like Castform) are not electric. Casting Porygon as normal sets the baseline as 'whatever is appropriate for the pokemon', so if they came up with a Pokemon based on a computer bug or an internet spider, they could type it poison/bug without having to use a type for electric.
: )
It's too bad the banned episode seems to have banned the Porygon lineup from the anime forever, when it was Pikachu's fault for the colorful seizure-inducing explosions. Porygon was just there.
