Admittedly this looked about 9000x better when I sketched it out. If I can find a scanner I'll probably do a refined version of the original sketch and scan it. If not, I'll have to get a friend to do the shading, because unfortunately my artistic skills (what there is of them, anyway) don't translate all that to the computer art programs.
....in any case, explanation time. This guy's based on a hydrogen atom. Thus, it has exactly one proton and one electron. However, in this case, each particle has a distinct personality and are in some ways separate entities, despite being fused together. The electron (the smaller, blue particle) is negatively charged, and thus has a perpetually negative mood; either melancholy or sometimes enraged, depending on the situation. The electron emulates the Water typing of the pokemon the most, and is the part of the atom that launches attacks. The proton (the larger, red particle) is positively charged, and is therefore constantly cheerful and happy. The proton emulates the atom's Electric typing, and plays the role of support and defense for the atom. The atom spins at high speeds to charge energy, which is then stored within the bond between the proton and the electron for later use.
(Hydrogen makes up 2/3 of a water molecule, and pure hydrogen is an energy carrier, like a battery. Hey, why not?)
[not set on the color palette; may actually go with a deep purple and hot pink over blue and red....honestly not sure yet. Guess I'll just keep looking for the combo that looks the best to me....]
