I calculated the chance at 6:36, In generation 3 there where 354 pokemon moves, so if we assume that metronome is 100% random then the chance of vicegrip being played 3 out of 4 times is 0.000008991%. So if you compare that to the chances of spawning a shiny in gen 3 which is 0.00012207% you have a bigger chance to actually find a shiny in the wild than to get vicegrip 3 out of 4 times with metronome.
But then if you think about it, the chance of playing any 3 random moves out of 4 is exactly the same, 0.00000891%, so is it really that special though?
How cool would it be if Ditto had a secret ability that did what this mod does, but just for it? It'd potentially make Ditto a viable Pokemon to use on one's team, instead of just a breeding slave.

3 million. But that's still incredible. (For anyone curious, the odds of the Chansey above are ((1/8092)*(0.05)*((1/31)*6)) which is equal to 0.000119%, or roughly 1 in 840,000. This event is 0.00002794%, or about 1 in 3 million.
6:40 the game selects a pool of moves that can be chosen by metronome before every battle, so it's not out of every single move in the game. idk how many moves it chooses from tho. (I paused the video so if he ends up saying this later on my b lmao) edit: typos
Assuming every attack gets selected, the possible moves that could be choosen are 335. Now all you gotta do is cubing 1/355 to get 0.000000027. So the odds for vicegrip to happen 3 times, if all attacks can get selected, is 0.0000027%. BUT since disable was used once inbetween, you have to multiply the odds with 334/335. So the final odds for vicegrip to happen thrice in four metronomes, assuming all attacks can be choosen, is still 0.0000027%. I hope I didnt fuck my maths up

By the way, regarding IQ tests: Even professional, "accurate" IQ tests become only like 80% accurate above 100 IQ, and are only about 30% accurate above 130 IQ, because it is _really hard_ to judge high intelligence, because highly intelligent people often _lowball_ their own intelligence. I had to take one as a teenager, and the guys who performed the tests - who were psychologists with diploma and all! - told me that. IQ tests aren't really designed to tell you how intelligent you are above 100 IQ anymore, they're more for judging what category you fall into, below 100, around 100, or above 100. It matters a lot how low you score if you score low, but it doesn't matter how high you score - it's good for you in any case!
Iq only measures your ability to calculate higher iq means you can do things like math faster it also affects your abillity to think ahead (stratagy wise) which you use for chest and stuff
ye its arbitrary information tailored for white middle class people to do well in. idk whether it was intentional or not, things like that usually are, but I would guess the creators whoever they are just had a biased idea of what intelligence is and didn't realized it was hella racist
@@ajaxmajorI have no idea why it would be racist. I don't think people usually get into colleges/jobs because their IQ score is high, often it's not even asked for. Just seems like baseless conjecture to me.
I feel that Shuppet/Poochyena fight... I still remember getting my gift Munchlax just as gen 7 was released , pitting it against an early trainer Gastly, only for it to use mean look, and even though i had 4 moves, i could only potentially damage it with Metronome! The fight took over 20 minutes of me just HOPING for a damaging move, and even though i got a few, it wasn't enough to knock it out...
If you consider that using Metronome you have 1/354 chance to get Vicegrip in gen 3, getting that same move 3 times out of 4 in a single battle is around 0.001832% (thanks to ChatGPT for calculating this). In comparison, the base chance to encounter a shiny in gen 3 is 1/8192, so around 0.012207%. In other words, the situation SmallAnt encountered is around 10 times rarer than meeting a shiny pokemon 🤯
@@LAM1895 unfortunately ChatGPT always seems to miscalculate stuff like that, using the Binomial theorem it is 0.000008991% if it is completely random each time, which is insane
btw, the reason you got Vicegrip 3 times is (at least in older games) Metronome has a randomly determined set of pretty few moves available every battle

True as IQ only measures your knowledge and some pattern recognition skills mostly but according to multiple intelligence theory there are at least 7 different types of intelligence a person can belong to. It's like asking who is smarter a person who can do maths well or a person who is good at many different languages. We can't exactly compare them both can we?
Well no IQ tests don’t measure intelligence, they measure speed and accuracy of absorbing information. People with high IQ learn faster, but many factors go into overall “intelligence.”
I wish I watched your stream. If you uploaded an unedited vod of you playing this I would totally watch it. Your pokemon vids are what got me to subscribe and this concept is super interesting
I honestly had never heard of you before yesterday, and I haven’t been too much into pokemon recently, but as soon as I saw this series on your channel I haven’t been able to stop watching. This is seriously the most interesting RUclips series I’ve ever seen since Content Cop. Literally binged every one of these videos in the past 24 hours and I cannot stop
that battle reminded me of: bug catcher: metapod, use harden! ash: metapod, use harden! bug catcher: metapod, use harden! ash: metapod, use harden! bug catcher: metapod, use harden! ash: metapod, use harden!
The thing with the Wallie fight is when "your" Pokemon dies the game get stucked. You get asked to select another Pokemon but it wont work since Wallie dont have any and yes its possibel if you get a Sheinja and the enemy has Rough Skin, happend to me in a randomizer Run xD
SOMEONE SAID IT. I WAS THINKING THAT THE ENTIRE TIME. LIKE "this is the metapod battle and nobody is saying anything tHESE FREAKS AREN'T SAYING ANYTHING"
Check my math here if you will, but I think I’ve got the odds of Ant metronome-rolling 3 Vice Grips in one battle. According to Bulbapedia, there are 354 moves available as of Gen III. Therefore, the probability of scoring one vice grip is 1/345. To calculate for all three, we must do (1/354)^3, which comes out at about *0.00000002254188.* Converting that into a probability percentage makes it 0.000002254188% odds, which is INSANELY low. To compare, the probability of encountering a shiny Pokémon as of Gen III was 0.00012207, or 0.012207%. Doing some simple math (shiny/3x vice-metro), that means you could encounter about *5415 FULL ODDS SHINY POKÉMON* before landing 3x vice grip with metronome. Once again, I might have made a mistake here, so feel free to check me. But holy moly, bro.
I wrote a comment about this separately, but I'm gonna paste it here just to cross-reference your math. Ok guys, I'm bored so here is the chance that you'd get Vise Grip 3 moves out of 4: Metronome, in Gen III, can select from a move pool of 354, except for the fact that Metronome cannot select itself or one of these 17 moves: Counter, Covet, Destiny Bond, Detect, Endure, Focus Punch, Follow Me, Helping Hand, Mimic, Mirror Coat, Protect, Sketch, Sleep Talk, Snatch, Struggle, Thief, and Trick. Thus, the total move pool is 354-17-1=336. The chance you'd get Vise Grip once is 1/336. Thus, the chance of getting Vise Grip 3 times out of 3 is (1/336)^3. However, we're doing 3 times out of 4, meaning a fourth move of any kind can go in between. For example, it could go Vise Grip, Disable, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, or it could go Disable, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, etc. In total, there are 4 places it could go (at the start, at the end, or in the 2 spaces in between Vise Grips), meaning the chance is 4*(1/336)^3 (we are including Vise Grip as a possibility for the fourth move, but that barely affects the calculation so I'm keeping it in), which equals: 0.00001054%. For reference: 0.00012207031% are the odds to get a shiny pokemon (about 11.6x more likely than getting Vise Grip 3 times out of 4). So basically, Ant got incredibly lucky (or... well not that lucky since Vise Grip isn't that good of a move, but still)
I like to imagine that the character has, in fact, caught 'em all. But doesn't trust the PC so he carries all the pokemon on him in unlabeled pokeballs. Then when someone challenges him it's just like "Ah shit. Uuuuuh this one, these ones here, and let's go with these."

That 1st Aqua Grunt battle was literally Ash’s Metapod Battle in Kanto 😅
14:27 someone mentioned seeing nosepass' foot as his mouth and i can never unsee it
I've never felt such anger
So much rage
Cursed.
thats how i saw the sprite as a kid LOL still do sometimes its hard to shake
It's not his mouth..?
10:40 Umbreon and Cloyster are literally two of my main men in the Emerald randomlocke I'm currently playing so this easily reminds me of my game
That Manetric vs Nosepass battle was like something from the anime
I like to imagine that the character has, in fact, caught 'em all. But doesn't trust the PC so he carries all the pokemon on him in unlabeled pokeballs. Then when someone challenges him it's just like "Ah shit. Uuuuuh this one, these ones here, and let's go with these."
Ash: no its real, i saw that experience before, even pikachu has
pokemon is also anime

Alright bois, he’s done Crystal, he’s done Emerald, when Gen 4 remakes comes out you know he’s going to do Platinum.
Pokemon Platinum Party Randomizer is just awesome.
The inventor of IQ actually said himself that it's not a good measure on its own for determining how intelligent someone actually is.
True as IQ only measures your knowledge and some pattern recognition skills mostly but according to multiple intelligence theory there are at least 7 different types of intelligence a person can belong to.
It's like asking who is smarter a person who can do maths well or a person who is good at many different languages. We can't exactly compare them both can we?
Well no IQ tests don’t measure intelligence, they measure speed and accuracy of absorbing information. People with high IQ learn faster, but many factors go into overall “intelligence.”
Isn’t it like “Intelligence Quotient” not like overall intelligence? Something like your ability to absorb information
The worst part is Imma trust that you’re right and not fact check you
And who is the inventor of IQ? Of course its not the only measure or predictor of performance but its the best predictor by itself.
I wish I watched your stream. If you uploaded an unedited vod of you playing this I would totally watch it. Your pokemon vids are what got me to subscribe and this concept is super interesting
I'm not sure but I think the Vods stay up on Twitch for a while

The thing with the Wallie fight is when "your" Pokemon dies the game get stucked. You get asked to select another Pokemon but it wont work since Wallie dont have any and yes its possibel if you get a Sheinja and the enemy has Rough Skin, happend to me in a randomizer Run xD

Check my math here if you will, but I think I’ve got the odds of Ant metronome-rolling 3 Vice Grips in one battle.
According to Bulbapedia, there are 354 moves available as of Gen III. Therefore, the probability of scoring one vice grip is 1/345. To calculate for all three, we must do (1/354)^3, which comes out at about *0.00000002254188.* Converting that into a probability percentage makes it 0.000002254188% odds, which is INSANELY low.
To compare, the probability of encountering a shiny Pokémon as of Gen III was 0.00012207, or 0.012207%.
Doing some simple math (shiny/3x vice-metro), that means you could encounter about *5415 FULL ODDS SHINY POKÉMON* before landing 3x vice grip with metronome.
Once again, I might have made a mistake here, so feel free to check me. But holy moly, bro.
Damn... That's pretty SICK
I read in another comment that said that metronome isn't out of all of the moves possible because it selects move pool before the battle starts
I wrote a comment about this separately, but I'm gonna paste it here just to cross-reference your math.
Ok guys, I'm bored so here is the chance that you'd get Vise Grip 3 moves out of 4:
Metronome, in Gen III, can select from a move pool of 354, except for the fact that Metronome cannot select itself or one of these 17 moves: Counter, Covet, Destiny Bond, Detect, Endure, Focus Punch, Follow Me, Helping Hand, Mimic, Mirror Coat, Protect, Sketch, Sleep Talk, Snatch, Struggle, Thief, and Trick. Thus, the total move pool is 354-17-1=336.
The chance you'd get Vise Grip once is 1/336. Thus, the chance of getting Vise Grip 3 times out of 3 is (1/336)^3. However, we're doing 3 times out of 4, meaning a fourth move of any kind can go in between. For example, it could go Vise Grip, Disable, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, or it could go Disable, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, Vise Grip, etc. In total, there are 4 places it could go (at the start, at the end, or in the 2 spaces in between Vise Grips), meaning the chance is 4*(1/336)^3 (we are including Vise Grip as a possibility for the fourth move, but that barely affects the calculation so I'm keeping it in), which equals: 0.00001054%.
For reference: 0.00012207031% are the odds to get a shiny pokemon (about 11.6x more likely than getting Vise Grip 3 times out of 4). So basically, Ant got incredibly lucky (or... well not that lucky since Vise Grip isn't that good of a move, but still)
Honestly, just pull out your TI-86 or whatever you have and do a binompdf(
Easy way to calculate the probability of 3/4 being vice grip
I cracked up when his struggle didn’t work
I think that vicegrip phenomenon can be explained by emerald’s broken rng
