From the rules in the OP:
This is the wrong place to request banners and images for:
  • Other applications that are either highly personal, unrelated to Smogon, or generally shortlived
Better off requesting from specific artists that does Pokemon style pixel art

Requester: SectoniaServant
For: 350 Cup
Art Direction: I would like to request that Stufful be included in the artwork if possible, but also a few other LC/NFE mons if possible, and one Uber too, if possible. The LC/NFE mons I’ll like to be included are Solosis, Vibrava, and Clefairy, while the Uber mon, I would like to be Zamazenta, if possible. This isn’t as urgent, because we have a banner with a mon that survived the transition to generation 8, but I would like a more modern banner if possible. Here’s the gen 8 thread, if you want it. And here’s the gen 7 thread, if you want any more inspiration. Thanks in advance!

So national dex metas are a thing now and we would like to request banners for NatDex OU and NatDex as a whole. Art can really be various things really, but maybe highlighting certain mons coming back such as Lando-T, Heatran, Garchomp and the likes.
Imma take the NatDex OU one (if nobody call dibs on the other one, I may take that, too). I have already an idea in mind. :3

Requester: Minority & Nayrz
For: Most Wanted (Major Team Tour)
Art Direction: This is a new ~100 player team tour that is being unveiled a few weeks into Generation 8 that uses a bounty system and player assassinations. We picture two to seven anthropomorphic Pokemon wearing suits holding weapons (or even held items for luls) - think Pulp Fiction / Men in Black / John Wick / No Country for Old Men aesthetic. Pokemon that are strong throughout Ubers gens 3-7 and are easy to make into humanoid shapes (like Mewtwo) work best. We also want to include at least one Pokemon which will obviously be strong in Generation 8 (like sword doggo or Aegislash). Please ask if more direction is helpful.
Request made: Nov 7th
Artist working on this: none so far

Requester: In The Hills
For: Sword and Shield Camomons (Generation 7's thread for reference)
Art Direction: Intellion could possibly the main focus of the picture? it has camoflauge lol idk... Mew, Clefable, Snorlax (possibly gigantamax), Chandelure could also fit
Request made: Nov 17
I can do one of these two! Example thread here: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ausma-2-electric-boogaloo.3656908/
If you would like more examples, please message me and I can provide! (I am able to do GFX work)

Requester: xavgb
For: Mix and Mega
Art Direction: I was thinking something similar to the Gen 7 thread but really anything featuring some mix of Mandibuzz, Weavile, or Dragapult would be really cool.
Holy crap I remember seeing the original image for this and absolutely loving the creativity and the finesse in it. I know my examples aren't the most telling, but I'd love to work on something like this and putting my most into it especially due to my experience in designs. In other words, I'd love to take on the job!
 
Requester: WhitePhoenixace
For: Trademarked Gen 8 forum
Art Direction: i wanted to see if I could get a depiction of kommo using clangorous soul, gengar or hydreigon using nasty plot or maybe all 3 in one image.
 
Requester: Pokesartoolcay
For: Gen 8 2v2 Doubles Thread
Art Direction: I was thinking something around the lines of the common pokemon you'd see in the tier such as Pelipper, Exadrill, Arcanine, and Oranguru, which represent many of the team styles at present, along with 2v2 doubles as a logo. I'd really appreciate it!

I would like to request three banners for the Pet Mods forum.

Requester: G-Luke

1. A Banner for the Rules and Regulations Thread.
I would like an image of Gardevoir as a teacher teaching 3 LC mons (not snapped) with the words "Rules and Regulations" incorporated on a chalkboard.

2. Pet Mods Workshop Thread
A Sableye and a Snorlax with hardhats and tools trying to fix stuff with the words "Pet Mods Workshop" stylized with contruction motifs.

3. Pet Mods Submission Thread
As long as a Chadelure is incorporated into the title I am game for anything really.


Links to the threads are here

https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pet-mods-rules-and-regulations.3589314/

https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pet-mods-workshop.3657185/

These being the banners of very important threads in Pet Mods, I would request that these are created sooner rather later, and that they look cool. Thanks!

Requester: Gross Sweep

For: RMT (RMT has a long history of using the same piece of art for all rules/resource pages, projects, competitions, and pretty much anything else RMT related and we wanted to get a new logo that will be used on all RMT related projects for the entirety of the 8th generation.

Art Direction: We'd like to give artists as much creative freedom as possible, but there are a couple things we'd like to see in the art: Either the phrase Rate My Team or the acronym RMT, The Storm Badge at least in shape - color can change for design if needed (Storm badge is the RMT badge), and all pokemon present must be fighting type - they don't have to be new this gen, but we'd prefer if they at least survived dexit (not including the ones who might get added in later).

For: Suicide Cup

Art Direction: Similar to last gen's banner, with mons and thier items like Gothitelle with Choice Specs, Cinderace with Black Sludge, Dugtrio with a Toxic Orb, and then a Bronzor would be perfect. Something with a darker theme and colors also would be pretty fitting.

xavgb I've completed your request! Had a ton of fun putting it together. (There's a bit of a size issue I can't quite remedy without ruining the dimensions, if you need me to do that let me know.)

I hope you enjoy it!!!

Requester: Alakazam / The Dark Alakazam
For: 1v1 Tournaments
Art Direction: A Vector Podium (the ones you see with raised levels for first, second, and third place) in a stadium (maybe in the style of a Gen 8 Gym Stadium), with Crustle in 3rd place, Sylveon in Second, and Galarian Darmanitan in first (if you want to change one of them to a Pokemon of your choice, lmk, I'm specifically choosing Pokemon that are good but not too good, in case of suspects)

Update on our request for Most Wanted - captain signups will go up in two weeks (Dec 15th). We want the tournament banner to be integrated as early as possible, and certainly once player signups go up.

We're also open to other art direction and minimalist approaches are fine so long as the work is very polished.
