Electoons are composed of magical energy; together, hundreds of them revolve around [[the Great Protoon]]. The Electoons and [[the Great Protoon]] appear to balance and stabilise each other. Physically the Electoons resemble small pink balls with large eyes, blue shoes and, with the exception of their appearance in ''[[Rayman Mini]]'', blond ponytails. When [[Mr Dark]] steals [[the Great Protoon]] at the very beginning of the game, the Electoons lose their natural stability and are scattered all over [[the valley]]. They are then captured and imprisoned in [[cage]]s by [[Mr Dark]]'s minions. More detail is given in [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color version]], which explains that [[Mr Dark]] captured the Electoons in order to steal their energy and use it for himself.

Electoons express gratitude towards [[Rayman]] when he rescues them, as shown by the small heart icons that appear over their heads. The antithesis of Electoons are [[Antitoon]]s (also known as Darktoons) – malevolent, blue, more masculine creatures which are highly similar to them. [[Antitoon]]s are the stuff of nightmares, and are spawned by [[Jano]], a creature born of [[Polokus]]'s [[First Bad Dream]].

Electoons make an appearance in the mobile game ''[[Rayman Mini]]'' as collectibles, which can only be received if the player manages to grab every [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lum]] in a level. Once obtained, Electoons can be used to get [[List of heroes and costumes in UbiArt games|outfits]] for [[Rayman]], [[Globox]], [[Barbara]], and, as of version 1.2.0, the [[Teensie]]s. Notably, the Electoons in this game do not have their blond ponytails, a trait that is shared with the [[Antitoon|Darktoons]] of this game.
