Examples;
The Unbreakable X-Men (team theme, super-hard to hurt) - Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Emma Frost, Joanna Cargill/Frenzy, Kitty Pryde, Pauli Provenzano/Omerta, Lilian Crawley/Diamond Lil (maybe Rockslide, as well?)
The Superior X-Men (rich and / or elitist X-Men) - Emma Frost, Julian Keller/Hellion, Monet St. Croix, Warren Worthington/Archangel, Betsy Braddock/Psylocke, Roberto DaCosta/Sunspot (I guess Sean or Theresa Cassidy should be rich, they own a castle!, and maybe David Haller, 'cause Xavier was sure rich...)
X-Men: Red Team Redemption (former villains) - Magnus/Erik Lensherr/Max Eisenhardt/whatever retconned name/ethnicity he is this generation/Magneto, Emma Frost, Victor Creed/Sabertooth, Telford Porter/Vanisher, Raven Darkholme/Mystique
X-Men: Team Indigo (gay X-men, 'cause why the hell not) - Jean-Paul Beaubier/Northstar, Bobby Drake/Iceman (adult version), Victor Borkowski/Anole, Xi'an Coy Manh/Karma, Roxanne Spaulding/Bling!, Jonas Graymalkin
X-Men: Unity Squad ('couples' of mutants and non-mutant allies) - Rogue (leading the team, after seeing how the Avengers Unity Squad didn't quite work out), Julio Esteban/Rictor, Shatterstar, Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler, Jimaine Szardos, Doug Ramsey/Cypher, Warlock (other possibilities, Corsair and Hepzibah, Beast and Agent Brand, Bishop and Deathbird, etc.)
X-Men: Silver Squad (team of mutants who *haven't* been X-Men) - Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, Vance Astrovik/Justice, Madison Jeffries/Box, Tommy Shephard/Speed, Molly Hayes/Princess Powerful/Bruiser, Laynia Petrovna/Darkstar (plus one more from Vanguard, Ursa Major, Diamond Lil, Wild Child, Flashback, Windshear, Squirrel Girl, etc.)
Any other whacky possibilities out there? Teams united around a theme, like all magic-users, or all force field users, or all Native Americans, etc.
