Do you remember the Spheal vs. Lotad battle from the last Metronome Tournament video? The moves, including the order in which they're used, seem very similar to one of the battles in this video. Something weird is going on.
It happened to me, some npcs or the move metronome tend to have a certain pattern, I don't know what it depends on, but it's something I could see after putting in +1000 hours, in your case I've seen a lot of repetition of Jirachi's doom desire move for example, in the last 10 videos you used that move like 5-9 times, which is strange for a rare move like that XD
Yeah, I assume it’s a simple RNG call function. I don’t think many things are advancing the seed between moves, which means if a battle reaches the same part of the sequence, the called moves (and outcomes like crits and misses) will be the same. I’m not really sure about how one could avoid that. Even if you advanced the seed, the sequence of outcomes are likely the same.
The first battle you do after starting up the game always has the same pattern (tri attack, flail,...). You can avoid that by having a throwaway battle first. Then the randomization seems to work "properly" again.
@@MetroNomicon777 Good catch! I hadn't noticed that. That's frustrating. Normally I record two videos for this Tournament in the same session, but this specific one and the previous were seperate. That's three out of the last four that started with Tri Attack and Flail. That plus the other repeats we've seen makes me very frustrated. I don't want this. I can almost start predicting a winner soon, or at least say who has an advantage in a fight because of the moves I know will happen.
@@Auke1993 Personally I haven't notice any other repeating patterns other than the first one. What you can do, if you play on emulator, is put as many Pokemon into the game as you can and use savestates instead of loading up the game normally.
Total Doom Desire counter: 2 (Since July 2, 2024) Number of times Doom Desire was called by Metronome in this video: 0 I started a Doom Desire counter for each video, since it shows up in almost EVERY one, sometimes even multiple times. It's Metronome's favorite move.
Two turns after the move is used, the target is hit by a burst of damage that hits through protecting moves. In this generation, the damage is treated as a typeless special attack with 120bp.

We've definitely seen it quite a few times, but not as much in very recent battles.
Here they come!
Let's go!
That magnet bomb. I was so expecting a super effective because steel on fairy but then i remember it doesn't exist in gen 4 yet
Very true.
I'll occasionally make a mistake with that too.
I still love you Kricketot T_T
We love Kricketot.

Yup. That's it.
