Hey, I'm rather new; well, I've been here for a few months, I just never really got the time to create an account, until now. I'm really interested in this Create-A-Pokemon project of yours, and I am extremely impressed, especially this CAP. Here's hoping I could get in on the action.
Anyway, here's my submission:
FINAL SUBMISSION

Backstory: I based my fakemon on Asian dragons and those long-sleeved Chinese robes. The sleeves of the robes, or in my fakemon's case, the arms, are like a plug and a socket. The elliptical gold gem between my fakemon's antennae-brows floats due to magnetism. When my fakemon plugs in its arms, it allows large amounts of electricity to pass through towards the gem, like a closed circuit. In doing so, it charges up, and can shoot out powerful blasts of electricity.
Note that in my Final Submission, there are no sparks of electricity between its antennae-brows and floating gem - because its arms are not 'plugged in'. In contrast, when its arms are 'plugged in', sparks of electricity can be seen, as is the case in the linked image.
Thus, because of its open/closed circuit characteristic, it is not offensive Special-wise when it is not 'plugged in', because it cannot shoot electricity when its arms are separate; it can only use its arms for Physical attacks. When my fakemon is 'plugged in', it also has lower mobility (try moving with your arms stuck together in a battle), and as such, complements an average Speed rating.

Okay, enough of mine. I LOVE Cartoon's fat thundercloud dragon. I have a thing for fat poke/fake-mon. Plus, we've never really had a pompous (and electric-booger flinging) poke. That gets my vote.
