WIP
Hey chat it's been a while. Just wanted to throw some ""quick"" ideas out. Dunno if I'll actually pursue any of these, esp with ability on the horizon.

Scrapped the monkey. New design is an alien jellyfish.
The brain of the jellyfish inside the translucent head resembles an alien inside a UFO. The frills resemble a tractor beam as well as a coat to show the alien trying to blend in. The head is also a plasma ball, which responds to physical touch with electricity (Electromorphosis), and jellyfish are one of the few animals that go through metamorphosis.

Went through many concepts, before landing on this, ironically the first idea I had.
A Bulbasaurus (the dicynodont, not the pokemon, though the similarity in name isn't beyond me) Lightning bulb!

frankenstein's monster marmoset! been chipping away at this in the discord, apologies to everyone who saw the terrible first draft
this probably won't be the exact final color scheme, but i was getting a little sick of this guy not having colors. it's hard trying to sell the patched together look in a black and white sketch.

potato battery kiwi (bird) exept it's not a potato, but a kiwi (fruit) bc both are like, round and brown and like you eat them and stuff
may or may not be referencing the new zealand lazer kiwi flag too
kinda gives electric/steel vibes rn but I'll fix that in a bit

A wolverine and an ion creature whose electron babies orbit its head :D
Leaning towards the latter.

WIP (sadly it seems I can't apply)
so this rule was recently pointed out to me:
so it seems that my medium is barred from competing :/
I'm still gonna leave my design here so that people can see the potential of non-2D mediums, in the hopes that in future CAP projects mediums like mine are allowed to participate
please let us sculptors, needleworkers and other crafters participate in future projects!
Punching bag dog, because I didn't want to make a Pokemon that could as well be just an electric mon (better known as Heliolisk syndrome)
I tried to emphasize the "normal" typing and purposely kept the electric elements subtle
in more detail:
also if anyone wants another angle just ask for it, I'll be happy to oblige :D!

Improved its pose, colors, and shaded it up as well! First version w the inspos is a few posts up, but again, potato battery kiwi (bird) exept it's not a potato, but a kiwi (fruit) bc both are like, round and brown and like you eat them and stuff, which may or may not be also be referencing the the new zealand lazer kiwi flag.

Final Submission
My idea was to use sound-based moves due to its secondary Normal typing, while making sure to stick to its main Electric type by heavily leaning into digital/electronic forms of music. I ditched my first idea of using Vaporwave aesthetics & used old Peer-To-Peer programs like Limewire and Napster as inspiration. Smaller details include a volume slider belt, eighth note rests for horns, and audio level equalizers on its' hands. Now it's turned it into a hype-man of a Jackalope ready to support your team!
EDIT: this version was originally listed as WIP, but I don't think I'll have the time or energy to add supporting details. I'd like to imagine that the tail wire zigzags with electricity when it goes to use a move. Best of luck to everyone participating!

After we got Electromorphosis as our ability, I wanted to make this a bit more like Bellibolt. So I changed the Frankenstein teddy bear into a Frankenstein GUMMY bear, and a rough outline of the final pose. Definitely gonna change a few thing later but I'm happy with what I have right now.

i wanted to draw something cute. this little electric dog uses the piercings on its long ears and tails to conduct electricity from lightning and energy from other sources like attacks, which it can use. i was in a bit of a rush and suck at character design so the cinnamoroll inspiration is pretty clear in the long ears and facial features. I plan to make it more distinctive when i have time @ moderators.

For the prompt of "Electric/Normal" I went for the Meloetta approach. Besides your ordinary mammals, there appears to be a link between "sound" or "music" and normal types. Particularly when it comes to certain normal type moves, such as Hyper Voice, Boomburst and Sing (Not to say that these moves will be added or not in later parts of the process, just a commonality with the typing in the actual games). So, I feel confident in making this early draft into a sort of outlet adapter idol! A feminine, musically oriented angle for what I think could make for an electric/normal Pokémon. This design is not final and may be subject to change!

New idea! Ceratopsian Dinosaur with Audio equipment all over its body. One could say it's a "Wall of Sound"...

Update on my alien. I made the jellyfish aspects more obvious and turned up the “alien disguised as a human” vibes for the Normal, with a false hat and trenchcoat. The electrical face in the transparent head is the real face, and the trenchcoat is a combo of jellyfish frills and a tractor beam. Feel pretty good with this design, probably just gonna edit small details for the final submission.

Charges itself as shown by the battery on its chest and its tail, uncharged version seen here:
