Well you could DM me with the theme for them and if Legendary Age gets approved i could make a slate for that theme
You chose
What about semi-legendaries? Like mythicals and UBs, as well as the regis and stuff?
basically I'm saying, is that any of the box legendary Pokémon and maybe the UB (if people make them too overpower) can't get the forms, but the Regi's and the lower trios and mythicals can, along with Pseudo and regular Pokémon . Ok?

I just wanted clarification for a cool sounding concept... ;-;
Balanced Fusions
In this mod, we'd be starting from scratch and subbing existing Pokemon, but instead of them getting their original learnset, you sub a different Pokemon's learnset. You would have the option to add or remove up to 3 moves. The same goes for Abilities, you could sub a different Pokemon's ability combo for that Pokemon, and you could choose to add or remove one ability. Last, you'd average one stat from either the learnset or the ability donor.

Been a while since I've been around here, but I thought something up that may be interesting to explore. RBY has what, 3-4 rebalancing mods, all of which have received varying amounts of success. However, what about Stadium?
Stadium, for those who don't know, has fairly different mechanics to RBY. Some of these are controversial (modern Substitute, Hyper Beam always forces a recharge), while others are quite interesting (Rest activates Sleep Clause, Focus Energy works, Haze has a Refresh effect, recoil isn't incurred upon KOing something). Hell, there's no 1/256 uncertainty nor recover failure to be found! These changes almost completely change the metagame at large, and for those who dislike the glitches in RBY, it could actually be quite appealing to some. This guide here is a bit outdated but gives a lot of details on Stadium mechanics, courtesy of my research.
When looking at the game from the standpoint of a Pet Mod, I think this could be a very interesting game to rebalance. You have some of RBY's inherently outclassed Pokemon to pick at (eg. Marowak VS Sandslash), as well as some with niches that are there but without stats or movepools to work with (Scyther, Seaking). But, you also have different mechanics to consider, allowing you to specialize the Pokemon for the environment. It could be worth editing moves to give more specialized buffs, but in a way that doesn't take away the identity of Stadium. For example, editing Waterfall for Seaking, as it's its signature move in Gen 1.
Not sure what else to say rn, just kinda spitballing at this point. Feel free to give feedback.

Legends Expanded (Something to that effect)
So y'know how Crown Tundra gave us brand new additions to the Regi family after over a decade since Regigigas' debut? Well, what if we did what GF did but for a bunch of other minor legendary groups? That's what this mod would aim to do.
Like with many other mods, slates would be used with each one being based around a certain minor legendary group. For the sake of demonstration, let's use a hypothetical Johto Beasts (
) slate:
Due to there being 3 beasts currently, 2 winners would be accepted.
Your new beast must have the following stats, re-arranged how you'd like:
2 115 stats
1 100 stat
1 90 stat
1 85 stat
1 75 stat
It must also be monotype.
Not unlike Mega Mirrors, the OGs may be buffed to loosen out inconsistencies/gaping viability gaps. For instance, there could easily be a special slate for the OG 3 Regis which could give them STAB buffing abilities and other things to keep them as on par as possible with the new ones.

It's basically that but expended and probably better.
i know that, just wanted to say something
UUbers
The goal of this Pet Mod would be to ban all the Ubers above the cutoff of 4.52 weighted usage, and then buff the mons that have usage in OU to be able to handle the new threats.What this mod isn't: Nerfing Ubers to bring them down to OU play. This mod would have a middle ground between OU and Ubers.
(Sorry is that seemed rude)
I present you, the new and improved...
New Meta
Do you sometimes wish that a new Pokemon can check that annoying Heatran that keeps on trapping you? Do you wish that you can check that Latias that hits you like you're a ant in UU? Then New Meta is just for you! In this metagame, we will create 3-8 Pokemon for every tier in the metagame!
Rules
This Mod will be an extension of the official metagame, meaning that Pokemon that already exist will be usable, and the Fakemon the community make as well. But there's always as twist to Pet Mods, and the twist is your Fakemon must be able to check up to 4 Pokemon in the tier, the minimum being 2, including a mandatory group of 2 Pokemon, (Mainly Top-Tier threats) and your Fakemon must check at least one Pokemon in the group. We will also do custom elements. For each slate we will add 3-8 Fakemon to each tier (Look at the message above), and after we are done in a tier, we'll just move down tiers, and once we hit ZU, we go right back up. We will also do LC and NFE as well.

Fakemon Rules
Just remember, all Clauses for each tier apply, and Smogon-wide clauses apply, too.
These BST stat limits are based on the power levels of the tiers.
Limit for Ubers: 700
Limit for OU = 600
Limit for UU = 580
Limit for RU = 550
Limit for NU = 530
Limit for PU = 500
Limit for ZU = 485
Limit for NFE = 445
Limit for LC = 380

The following Abilities are banned:
- Arena Trap
- Shadow Tag
- Imposter
- Moody
- Illusion
- Wonder Guard
- Arena Trap
- Shadow Tag
- Imposter

- Bolt Beak
- Fishious Rend
- Geomancy
- Baton Pass
- Spore (Can only be used by Grass types)
Forms
If you wish to create a Pokemon form, you may add up to +50 to it's BST, and to make it balanced, you must at least swap your stats around, and you must -20 points from it's stats.
Abilities
If you want to make a ability, don't make an ability that is an improved version of a existing ability. You can do sidegrades of existing abilities, though. (Like that Serene Grace doubles the effects of moves, you can do a Fire-type version of it.) Also, your ability must not summon a new field effects.
Items
The item must be a signature item to the Pokemon you create, meaning it only works for the Pokemon the item is designed for.
Moves
Your move can do anything, like hit a Pokemon that is immune to a type of move, but it must be under 100 base power, and it's secondary effect must have below a 30% to activate.

Those are all of the rules! Also, please don't go the maximum stat limit for a tier for all of your submissions. Also, keep the power level on your Pokemon on the same power level as the tier the slate is focusing on. Don't create a new Calyrex-S or a new Magearna.
You can also submit up to 6 Pokemon.

[Gen 3] Updated OU
In this Gen 3 mod, we'd do the following:-Update learnsets to include Gen 3 moves that are learned in later generations
-Add Megas and give them Gen 3 abilities
-Update mechanics, moves, and stats to later Gens (Physical/Special Split, weather mechanics, etc.)
-Add evolutions/pre-evolutions from later Gens
-Add mons from Gens 4-8, reducing their movepools to Gen 3 and replacing any non-existant abilities with Gen 3 abilities

I like this one, but I think it'd be funner (and have more longevity) if it looked beyond legends. GF has created mirrors of other Pokemon in later gens, such as:ok since submissions thread is shut might as well put this here

Here is something
Reversions
Description: This mod aims to add variants of Pokemon that match their playstyle in previous generations.
What counts as "matching"? Well, it just depends on how you interpret the Pokemon! If you aren't familiar with Old Gens and need some guidance, do some research: the Competitive Dex and the Ruins of Alph subforum are great sources to go see how Pokemon functioned in previous metagames.
Specific Rules:
Pokemon: Exeggutor
Generation: RBY
Typing: Normal / Fairy
Ability: Natural Cure / Compound Eyes
Stats: 95 / 65 / 95 / 125 / 95 / 55
Movepool: Exeggutor's movepool + Dazzling Gleam, Draining Kiss, Earth Power, Flamethrower, Play Rough, Moonblast -Expanding Force, Extrasensory, Leaf Storm, Psycho Cut, Wish, Wood Hammer, Zen Headbutt
Description: In RBY, Exeggutor acts as a status spreader and wallbreaker. Compound Eyes lets it spam Stun Spore and land Sleep Powders more easily. While Psychic is no longer as spammable this generation, a new typing and more coverage lets it still act as a special wallbreaker
Feedback welcome

Specific Rules:
- This Pet Mod is based on Gen 8 OU, but will be a micrometa, meaning only the variants added will be usable
- You can change anything (type, abilities, stats, moves, etc.) about the Pokemon without taking too much flavor into account; do whatever you need to do in order to match the Pokemon in its previous generation
- There can be multiple versions of the same Pokemon, as long as they are based on different generations and are substantially different
- No custom elements. That's cheating >:(

how do you decide what gen its from
You simply just do! We can have multiple forms of the same Pokemon, as long as they're all from different generations (given some Pokemon are kinda the same throughout the generations). Perhaps I could just make every slate a Free-For-All (choose any mon from any gen).
I have an idea
Bronze Version
A GSC pet mod idea
My goal is for most pokemon to be at least viable. I am doing this in gen 2 because 400 mons is way too many.
I'll change stats typing and movepool just too make a mon viable
i'll Try too keep the mons identity when posible but when a mons sucks so much i'll have too be more drastic
here's an example of a buff

Empoleon
Type: Water/Steel
Ability: Torrent
Retained Moves: Hydro Pump, Surf, Agility, Substitute, Yawn, Ice Beam, Toxic, Rest
New Moves: Haze
Niche: Bulky Water who doesn't take sand damage, and has a support movepool that emphasizes status spread. Gave it Haze because it gives it a niche compared to Vaporeon/Suicune, which it uses well due to its many resistances). Can also set up with Sub+Agility to activate Torrent.
