A YONS run basically embodies this:
Yuna must be the only character in battle whenever possible. All other characters must continually escape, or during unescapable fights they must attack themselves (not each other) or continually change weapons.
Yuna is the only character permitted to perform any action in battle or equip any item that affects any character or enemy. No Initiative, no First Strike, hell no SOS NulTide for anyone who isn't Yuna.
During the points in the game during which Yuna is unavailable, you can break the above rule, but no character other than Yuna may touch the Sphere Grid at any point.
For the tutorial battles, you may do as you please (though instantly dismissing Valefor during the first Garuda tutorial battle is encouraged).
There is one exception to the Yuna-Only, No Summons rule where the game does not force you to summon: this is the very first fight with Sin, aboard the SS Liki. It is impossible to get past this fight without either breaking this rule, or fully completing Yuna's portion of the Grid before leaving Besaid. Yeah, ouch >_> 99% of YONSers, myself included, conveniently forget it's technically possible to win this fight without summoning or using other characters. Because we don't have literally thousands of hours to grind :P Not to mention, it would make most of the rest of the game absurdly easy to level for Holy at this point, because Yuna would be dodging every attack and getting far too many turns to ever die until about Macalania time.
Also, if you're looking to endgame the run (which I will), it's impossible to beat Dark Yojimbo without summoning in the fourth fight to block his Overdrive. If I recall correctly.
All other points which require absurd amounts of levelling (Sinspawn Gui, Anima) must be ground as necessary, without summoning.
You may not fight Belgemine's Aeons to get the rewards from fighting them (this means no Nirvana in the endgame).
You may acquire Yuna's secret aeons, but you may not use them.
^ I wrote all that out just now >_>
I'm about 200 hours in and grinding Macalania to learn Holy before fighting Seymour for the first time I've actually nearly finished the run, in terms of pure time. _________________

Don't flit from one thing to another, because that just smacks of a large lack of determination and drive. And people don't like you for that, and won't remember you for it. I mean, I get that you have a plucky spirit and a willingness to try new things, but there's a limit, man. | I might knock it down to just Thursday and Friday. |

I suppose it could, seeing as it's a legendary and everything, but Arceus is supposed to be the "God Pokemon", so I thought it deserved a special banner, you know catching "God" with a pokeball. |
I wouldn't mind a banner like that either!
Arceus is totally epic especially catching it without a Master Ball or anything like that. |

I'm telling you, the banner DOES NOT suck. Arceus is only available in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum anyway, so there's no need for generation distinctions.
EDIT: Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Target Test Levels 1-5 Cleared (5 different banners, possibly? (Double EDIT: Level 1 Blue, Level 2 Green, Level 3 Yellow, Level 4 Orange, Level 5 Red)) and Super Smash Bros. Brawl All Target Tests Cleared
Triple EDIT: Captured 3 Legendaries with Pokeballs
Quad EDIT: Z-Rox FC Banner _________________

Yay, Graf is in on this too (starting off with another banner that I have actually earned). Love the 300 x 40 size banners, they look good in sigs. _________________
