On Events Banning Arceus & Dialga & Palkia-GX
The weekly meta update on this site will only include results from tournaments using the official ban list, as provided by the Pokémon Company International on its website. If a significant number of prominent organizers begin to ban Arceus & Dialga & Palkia-GX from their events, as Limitless has chosen to do through the month of January, JustInBasil.com will begin to track this "ADPless" Standard format separately from the official Standard format metagame.

What to do if your opponent has an illegal card in their deck
What to do if you realize that you have an illegal card in your deck
What the penalty for an illegal card inclusion is
How you will be required to fix a deck that contains an illegal card
This new page will be linked with each advertisement of the alternate format tournaments on the JustInBasil Discord and will be linked as a refresher at the start of each alternate format tournament.
