How far would you walk to fill out a Pokedex entry?

I have a Porygon, Up-Grade, and only 13 candies.

I probably won't get more candy anytime soon, except by walking. This means NOT walking with Chansey and powering up my Blissey.

Porgyon2 is an OK mon, probably not going to be useful. The only real reason to do this would be to fill out the pokedex.

Good deal or bad deal?

I wouldn't bother. You'll get Porygon2 eventually and like you say it isn't much use. Appreciate that Blissey! I don't feel like I'll ever get one (2 Chansey caught, none hatched)

Not walking with Chansey is too high of a cost. Not worth XS

You will eventually hatch one.

If you walk it, then the hatch will be a disappointment, and make you feel like you have wasted 'buddy distance'.
If you don't walk it, then the hatch will still be welcome, and even a highlight.

Like everyone says, not worth to walk a mon just to complete the dex, I learned it during my walking sessions on gen1 to get mon like Machamp, Golem or Charizard just to see them become a nest, hatch, or events.

There is no way you can complete the hole dex without travelling to a lot of countries (at this point probably very few people in the world have all region exclusives from gen1 and gen2), so what if you have porygon2 missing space for a few more months? Nothing will change. Walk the most valuable mon always, the ones you will use either for offense or defense, Porygon is a rare mon for a lot of us, yes, but not worth the effort for me.

I HATE walking with a buddy for more than 100 kilometers, however, except for Magikarp.

Wait for Gen 4, you will need only 124+1 candies to evolve it to PorygonZ.

Porygon2 will cost 25 candies to be (gen 4) evolved, just like (gen 2) Golbat.

Like 333-blue said, it's not worth it, just wait. Before Gen 4 is released, Niantic WILL do an event where there will be naturally spawning Porygon2! Mark my words. Just like they did with Chansey before Gen 2. Walking for a not so useful buddy is just a waste. You are better off walking Dratini, Larvitar, Chansey, Snorlax, Lapras and their evolutions.

0KM. I would never walk a pokemon that isn't a strong defender or at worst a strong attacker.
