The time has come...
This probably needs to be made a bit more clearer since it may be confusing for the no team preview Hacker and feen, this is how you challenge without team preview: /chall gen9ru @@@ !teampreview
Also to clarify, any of these slots can be bo3 if both players agree, I won't stop fun but both have to agree

1. SV-1: No gimmicks just regular SV
2. SV Bo3 no repeats: in this format, people play a bo3 but the catch is that any mon you use in your g1, you cannot use in your g2 and the same holds then for g3. For example, if I use Hippowdown/Wo-Chien/Barraskewda/Zoroark-Hisui/Goodra-Hisui/Talonflame for my g1, I cannot use any of these mons in my g2 and my g3. I can bring something like Krookodile g2 but then I cannot use him g3 either.
3. SV tera-less: simple, without terastalization. You tera, you forfeit in essence
4. SV no team preview: s/o sufys for this idea. It's like older gens without team preview. Zoroark is gonna be interesting in this format. Remember to put your lead in slot 1 of the team.
5. SV B- on the viability ranking and lower: As it suggests you can only use mons with a viability rank of B- or lower
6. SV RUBL freed: every mon in RUBL is freed for this but I looked at RUBL again and this is just going to be some shitty HO vs HO game. Therefore, I'm going to make the rule where you can only use one RUBL mon. Any one is fine but it can only be one on your team. For example if you bring manaphy, you cannot also use hydreigon. Hopefully it'll make things more interesting and we won't see HO vs HO fests.
Edit: it was suggested which I think sounds cool, you also cannot let your RUBL mon of choice tera. If I pick a comfey for example I cannot tera ground it. Doing so results in a forfeit
7. SV pre-home meta: some people liked this meta so this is a cool throwback. Chungler's idea with cyan's support
8. SV monotype: seems to be a very popular suggestion so sure, why not. No tera allowed as in regular monotype.
9. SS boots ban: No boots. For clarity at the very end of the game when someone has definitively won you need to do !showteam. No cheating...
10. SS with dynamax: oh boy, this should be fun
11. SM: No megas, No Z-moves: SM is iconic for its two gimmicks. Let's see how honest a meta it is without these or whether it's crap
12. SM: No hazards, no toxic: SM has arguably 4 major tools for progress making: knock off, volt-turn momentum, rocks, and toxic. I'm removing two of them. If you click a hazard move or toxic, you forfeit the game. You can still run defog and spin though lord knows why you need them now
13. ORAS: RUBL freed. All of it is free...
14. BW: No ant, no drudd, no molt: Removing the big 3, maybe the tier is less broken and hax reliant. Maybe...
15. ADV: Seems to be a bunch of ADV players who wanna play a good and fun tier and I won't rain on their parade. Enjoy your slot
