Metronome (Japanese: ゆびをふる Wag Finger) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It was TM35 in Generation I.
Effect
| This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Needs to research for any Generation VI moves that will not be selected |
Metronome randomly selects a move and fully executes the attack. An attack called by Metronome in this way counts as the last move used.
If Metronome successfully calls Hyper Beam or a partial trapping move and has 0 PP before the move fully executes, its PP can roll over in the same manner as the move is called, with full PP Ups applied. A Pokémon will be able to use a move that is disabled if called via Metronome.
Because Metronome has normal move priority, a move with higher or lower priority may be executed other than when it normally would. For instance, Metronome may cause Quick Attack to be used after a normal priority move or Vital Throw to be used before a normal priority move.
Metronome will not select itself or any of the following moves:
