1. Does it have to be a full evo-line? I'm assuming yes, as Pokeheroes treats regionals as a type of event mon usually, but main game precedent means that some regionals only exist as one evolution in the whole line (E.g. Exeggcute to Alolan Exeggutor, Cubone to Alolan Marowak)
2. On that note, is making another evolution for our regional variant, to a line whose regular variant doesn't have one allowed? (e.g. Mr Rime, Obstagoon, Sirfetch'd, Overquil)
3.
Does this mean sprite edits are only allowed for Gen 5 and earlier mons, because the Gen 6 ones are done by other artists?
4. (general sprite contest question) Do shinies need to keep the details of the pokemon 100% the same? The one that immediately comes to mind is Breloomio's shiny (see the hat) but I think there might be other emera mons who also have slightly different shinies
Side note: if yall have issues visualising what a regional variant is, you can consider them re-typed versions of the same pokemon, but also tied in with Emera Town lore/features

When you say variant, do you mean I take an already made emera mon and turn it into a galar or alolan varients?

And leave the dying to the dead
If your flame is burning strong
Why watch the shadows on the wall instead of
Living life without regret
So you can see what lies beyond
The border when you're gone

Preferably one PM with all entries or several PMs with the same "subject", so they are stacked together.
No. The type-changed starters haven't gotten an evolution (and according to the Poll probably won't), so if you think a certain pokémon wouldn't evolve after adapting, that's perfectly acceptable.
As long as they're not mega forms, I see no reason why that wouldn't be allowed.
[So, tentative "yes", with the sidenote that new Megas are not allowed]
If you plan on using PH-sprites, yes. There are plenty of archieval sites that allow you to use their sprites for spriting, though, so you're not limited to Gen 5 and earlier for the contest.
If the change makes sense, that's not necessary. However, Breloomio is an Event (not a variant), so I wouldn't use that as a justification for sprite-differences in the shiny.
No. Unless there's a problem with it, there will be no message. So assume no message = no problem.
So far, the only Emera pokémon are the Shellos (North & South), Diancie (Emera) and the type-change starters.

So another example is thay there's no Galarian Mime Jr, but there's a Galarian Mr Mime
Edit: Also, just to double check, Gen 6 and later sprites from PH cannot be used for sprite edits, but an offsite sprite from an artist that allows sprite edits is okay?

Yes, you can make an Emera-variant evolution from an original Pokémon [like Alolan Raichu, Galarian Mr. Mime]
Slight correction on this, as I asked confirmation/information from Riako. As we, the site as a whole, have permission to use the sprites, all sprites on PH can be used for contests contained within PH. Those sprites cannot be used for contests outside of PokéHeroes.
So, you can use Gen 6 (and up) sprites from PokéHeroes, but you can only show/use those sprites on PokéHeroes.
[so be extra careful that you share it using an image-sharing website that doesn't publish any of the images publicly]
