==Metronome and Sketch==
==Metronome and Sketch==
The article states that Metronome can call on any move other than itself and Struggle, but I was curious to know what the situation is regarding Sketch. Can it be called? If so, does it automatically fail? Whatever the answer, it could make an interesting (if minor) addition to the article.

I think the effects for this move need to be split into Generations.  I don't think all the moves on the chart are withhelf from Metronome in all generations.  for example, I'm fairly certain I remember there being a great deal of controversy in Generation II when people figured out that Metronome could Sketch a move, technically expanding several Pokémon's movesets if going completely by RAW and ignoring the spirit of the learnsets.  Also, I'm not completely sure Metronome couldn't select a move you already know in all the Generations.  So, overall, what I'm looking for is some one who ''really'' knows his Metronome to take a look at this article.  [[User:Schreiber|Schreiber]] 23:37, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

::For the benefit of users reading this later: Metronome in GSC cannot Metronome Sketch (However, there *is* a Sketch bug in GSC concerning Transform, with Metronome *can* call). GSC Metronome can call any move except Metronome itself, Struggle, Sketch, Mimic, Counter, Mirror Coat, Protect, Detect, Endure, Destiny Bond, Sleep Talk and Thief. --[[User:FIQ|FIQ]] ([[User talk:FIQ|talk]]) 21:22, 17 February 2017 (UTC)


== Metal Burst ==

Can this move be called on from Metronome? I'm wondering since it's similar to Counter and Mirror Coat. [[User:Ht14|<span style="color:#B69E00"><sup>'''''ht'''''</sup></span>]][[User talk:Ht14|<span style="color:#E1E1E1"><small>''14''</small></span>]] 00:48, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Just right now my togekisss Utopia used metronome and used metal burst. I was facing the elite four in my diamond just to see what moves i would get. Utopia was first and used metronome, then metal burst. It failed. [[User:Mikewolf|Mikewolf]]

I took out the section saying that metronome will not select any moves known by the user because in White version, my Togepi with metronome has called moves that it knows with metronome. I don't think I am wrong, but someone correct me if I am for whatever reason. -[[User:Maddiesapphire|Maddiesapphire]] ([[User talk:Maddiesapphire|talk]]) 16:10, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

I know that Metronome could be used to execute Judgment in Gen IV, but I've notice that Gen V excludes a lot of signature moves that work differently for their respective Pokemon (e.g. Techno Blast for Genesect, Relic Song for Meloetta). Is Judgment still on the list of usable moves for Metronome? What about Grudge, which functions like Destiny Bond? [[User:Gymnotide|Gymnotide]] 09:33, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

::I just had Judgment called in Ultra Moon, so it's still included in Gen VII as well. Not that there's much reason to think it wouldn't be. What I'm really curious about is Light of Ruin.

== Gen II and III description trivia ==
Should it be mentioned in the trivia that the GSC description and all the Gen III descriptions say that it can use any Pokémon move when that's not true?[[User:Micamike45|Micamike45]] ([[User talk:Micamike45|talk]]) 18:55, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:Sure, why not. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 01:25, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
== Missing Generation VI moves ==
Can we change the template for research for any of the Generation VI moves that can't be selected, I placed the incomplete template so this can be changed into a research template. --[[User:Cinday123|<span style="color:pink">Cinday123</span>]] <small>''([[User talk:Cinday123|<span style="color:lightblue">Talk</span>]])''</small> 09:31, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
== Metronome and Hold Back ==
Metronome does copy Hold Back, my Togepi just pulled it off (for barely any damage). I hope that helps the Gen VI research.

:Yeah, I remember that coming up before Hold Back was officially available. It and Celebrate could both be called by Metronome. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 10:13, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
== Metronome (move) and Metronome (item) ==
I'm probably not the first one to wonder this, but would the Metronome item boost the move selected by the Metronome move or not? The UI has the same move (Metronome) selected, while the battle, in one sense, had the choosen move used instead.

== Metronome accuracy ==
I was training my mew (around level 35) in the freind safari, I use metronome, it turns into gullitone, it hits. This happened again in the same circumstances only with sheer cold instead, and a third time in a link battle. So I now think that moves called by metronome have 100% accuracy. Can someone verify this for me?

== List of uncallable moves is outdated ==
No, this isn't about how the list doesn't include gen VII (although it doesn't). It doesn't even include gen VI! It only goes up to V. This is kind of silly. [[User:GolgothasTerror|golgothasTerror]] ([[User talk:GolgothasTerror|talk]]) 17:42, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
== Snorlium Z Munchlax ==
I'm trying to add that the [[List_of_American_region_Nintendo_Network_event_Pok%C3%A9mon_distributions_in_Generation_VII#Snorlium_Z_Munchlax|Snorlium Z Munchlax]] knows Metronome but have no idea how to use the template. Can someone put it in?

== Mirror Move ==
In 2015, a user [[Special:Diff/2260654|added]] both {{m|Assist}} and {{m|Metronome}} as uncallable moves in Generation III. However, as demonstrated [https://youtu.be/fkszBlUdGak?t=3m46s here] (and noted above by {{u|Dracometeor12}}), Assist can be called by Metronome in Generation III. This immediately calls into question the credibility of it being unable to call Mirror Move. Can anyone verify whether or not it can call Mirror Move in Generation III? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:37, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
== Can we please change the grid icons for which moves it can't use? ==
Despite the note above, it's a bit confusing that green checkmarks mean Metronome <B>can't</b> select it. You know what I mean? I feel like it should be swapped. [[User:Unowninator|¿¡Unowninator?!]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 16:18, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
:It's in the "unselectable moves" section, there's a line that says the green checkmark means it cannot be selected. If anyone is still confused, then they are clearly not reading the article.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EBC600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#EBC600">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#D8B600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D8B600">ire</span>]] 04:40, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
::I think changing unselectable moves to be crosses and selectable moves to be checks makes sense; it does seem more intuitive. Just as long as we preserve the line explaining what the checks and crosses mean. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:27, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
== why does belch lack an icon for gen 6? ==
on the unselectable moves table, the square for belch in gen 6 has neither a check nor a cross and is a blank square. [[User:Pikachu210|Pikachu210]] ([[User talk:Pikachu210|talk]]) 20:07, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
==Can Metronome copy Shadow moves==
Well, can it? I don’t play the Orre games, but I feel like it would be good to know [[User:HansonKerman|HansonKerman]] ([[User talk:HansonKerman|talk]]) 15:27, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
==Confirmation==
Metronome can select moves the user knows in Gen 9, I was using Metronome with a Delphox and randomly got Flamethrower, which it already knew. [[User:PinkYoshiGaming|PinkYoshiGaming]] ([[User talk:PinkYoshiGaming|talk]]) 06:08, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
