Drybones: I would say our design's got something good going for it. Do it up properly, give it a nice colour job (and of course, make it look more Electric) and let's see what happens.
 
Based on looks alone, I prefer Ixfalia's (electric blue, or maybe black?), Doug's, and Atyroki's.

Also, I think that Atyroki's lends itself the best to Sheild Dust, which seems to be winning the ability poll. That being said, I would like to see how/if other's adapt to whatever ability is chosen.
 
pkmn-taicho321, did an amazing picture of my "CSD" (Crystal Storm Dragon) concept for me. Firstly it's fantastic and secondly thanks again pkmn-taicho321! :D



Some Cool Artistic Things He Did With The Concept:
  • Gave the two heads a very interesting duality appearance. The left one with red eyes and an evil expression and the right one blue eyes and a kind expression. This duality is so interesting because of electricity having positive and negative.
  • The crystals; they look fantastic and excellently detailed.
  • Hands are very well done and are a good tip for me.
  • The tail has the crystals running up it right to the tip, which looks awesome.
I also like how the ability thread is coming along with Shield Dust in the lead. This gives great support for my idea of this poke having a sort of diamond dust from the crystals surrounding it (I think diamond dust was from Shiva in Final Fantasy?). I also hope rough skin wins the secondary ability poll, since I support it and those crystals look pretty sharp ;)
 
Wow, the quality submissions are really ramping up, I'm intimidated. X); I know the likelihood of mine making it far is low, but I'm forging on anyway; it's fun and good practice.

That said, I'm sketching up a bit of supplementary material. Does anyone have any suggestions of what they like to see in supplementary stuff or any particular requests of such for my fellow?

The problem with most Pokemon, as I have seen, is they are delving far too much in 'concepts' and not enough in simplicity. The few that are really exceptional are just simple dragons with little details sewn in to make them electric in nature. I think you should stray from the whole electric concept, and just make a great looking dragon with a few electric details/colors.

Just my personal opinion on the matter. If I could draw, at all, I would totally be in on this. =D
 
Just playing devils advocate but the "main" typing is electric.
And Palkia's "main" typing is water, but it doesn't look remotely like a water-type.

Right now, Cartoons' design is my favourite by a mile. It looks like a cross between a good guy and a bad guy from Spyro the Dragon.

Cartoons! + Doug's are staples to everyone's favorite, it's something you can't say no to. I'm leaning towards Cartoons! though because it implies to the "bulky" dragon look.
 


Ah, let see..just decided to scrap my previous one, and try with this one. A bit more 'bulky', and odd looking..why does it remind me of elvis. lol
 
I hope I'm not too late.

Well, here's my submission, the Friction Frilladora:


Design is simple, an on two Frilladora with a "Royal Cape". The cape is made out of (those wool used in Science classes for friction, and to demonstrate electron and proton attraction). The wool itself protects the fakemon from getting sick. It repels any floating substances that can make the fakemon sick(Shield Dust). The end of its tail is where it can discharge electricity when there's too much friction in the wool of its cape(Like a taser).
 
Curse Photoshop and its constant crashing.

I'll do my other designs over the next few days. Grah. This was a haphazardly drawn design, just to get the feel of the colors. Any suggestions on color changes etc.? And what colors do you think would make my other designs cool?
I really like this, but I think something like a swirling tail (like in Doug Just Dougs) would solidify the dragon feeling. It is really great already though!

  • I really like this one, Gooey, but he needs something more "electricky" instead of the crystals. Also, is there a way to put positive and negative signs on each head? Crystals beside, I think it's one of the best here.

I like your concept a lot. I find that if you put more of a background into it people will be more willing to accept it. I highly suggest you color it though, because coloring has a VERY large influence on voting.
 
Wow, thanks a lot Penguino! :) I haven't thought of much else to make it more "electricky" and to alter that picture is really up to pkmn-taicho321. But in the meantime I altered my picture, while I'm making a new one that has a different color as well as some aspects taken from the one pkmn-taicho did (for example the eyes and tail).




I wanted to put it up before I got into the shading or into drawing a new picture and pose altogether so I could get some opinions, and possibly help get pkmn-taicho321 some opinions, if he wants to change it as well. :)

for comparison you can look up to see my latest: ^^^
Or look at the awesome one done by pkmn-taicho321: http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh223/jurassicskin/gks-1.jpg
Or My similar but slightly different older version: http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh223/jurassicskin/IMG-2-1colourstriped2.jpg
Or the super oldschool version: http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh223/jurassicskin/7.jpg

Let me know what you liked the best of each and I'll make changes accordingly, or if you have a completely new idea let me know about it.
Thanks.
