Can You Beat Pokémon FireRed But It's a Metronome Only Nuzlocke?

After the year 2020, things have drastically changed in Kanto. There's no more reviving Pokémon. Looming extinction means trainers can only catch a limited number of Pokémon. And, of course, Metronome is the only move that remains. Without items allowed in battle, things have become seriously chaotic in the Kanto region. Welcome to the chaos. Welcome to Enter the Unown.
In this video, we're asking the question, "Can You Beat Pokémon FireRed but it's a Nuzlocke and Metronome is the only move?" Thanks for watching!

I genuinely love the in-game explanation for a Nuzlocke. Gives a dark and edgy feel to the world without pulling the cult nonsense that so many ROM hacks try. I love your channel, and the roleplay aspects you incorporate into your battles. Keep on keeping on, dude.

To be fair I’m pretty surprised you made it as far as you did, Metronome being the random fun that is it. A great video that I’m sure took quite a while to make 😄

Given how much modding must've been done, I'm curious to see if, and when, metronome becomes explosion or self destruct. And then I see that it's definitely still in the move pool, minutes later. Oh boy.

[@ltntwafflz9043]

I'm currently attempting a Metronome only playthrough of Crystal Clear and 3/4 of my moves are self-destruct or explosion.

[@Robolewa]

@@ltntwafflz9043 I already can't bring myself to do a nuzlocke, but damned if I could do it with metronome, given its track record.

[@Chrysanthemumsie]

Your capability of telling a unique story each time makes your videos so enjoyable to watch! They’re so relaxing yet engaging

[@Gastly-iz6hf]

This is probably one of the hardest challenges one could do, because there is no way to prepare

[@flarey9495]

R.I.P Florp, you will be missed

[@shinytoblerown5008]

This is actually probably the best incarnation of a nuzlocke i've seen in a while, particularly because of the way you played it. Most nuzlockes wind up with endless grinding for overleveled pokemon, but grinding is too dangerous in this version, so you were continually underleveled instead. You also played recklessly -- switch training during gym battles in a nuzlocke??? but it makes sense because so many metronome attacks are wasted and you've got a good chance of a free switch. I liked this video. actually makes me want to try a nuzlocke again lol

[@Zarrow1]

Your story telling makes these videos unique compared to the usual, very entertaining!

[@homogenized]

I love the spooky "worldbuilding" that explains why Metronome is the only move and why the Nuzlocke is necessary. That plus the background music... so chilling, and so good!

[@ja-melvinson7994]

Also, can we talk about how the background music is JUST a lavender town remix? I love it. So much. The music and the story that explains this nuzlocke and everything. It’s so cool and adds originality to an already fun concept.

[@PHEEliNUX]

I love the plot you gave to this video lol

Rip Florp, im sadder than I should be

[@kartiksaraf4676]

This was so insanely good storytelling. I hope it continues the story further in other attempts. Love your dry humor and style. I think you would have won if you used the 'thunder armor' technique though from your other series mimicking Ash.

[@annadimak8180]

highkey one of your best videos so far. Loved the story, the premise (especially knowing how much you love metronome), and how it was done. The PMD music at the end was just the icing on the cake for such an unsettlingly creepy yet goofy video.

[@darksun4933]

Love the storytelling details man, I was fully invested till the end, the effort you put in was apparent and well appreciated:D

[@agr0nianTV]

12:39 RIP Florp you were our hard carry for so long I'm a bit surprised the mod wasn't coded to allow multiple move slots to be metronome. A great run! Stretching it out was a nice idea the extra in-game changes on the ending were really nice

[@damongrisdale531]

The cold open was fantastic

[@marshmllodragon]

I really dig the sinister tones of this episode. Great delivery on the narration! Really really unfortunate what happened in that Giovanni fight. I'd love to give this a try sometime. Maybe 2022 will be a little more forgiving. 😬

[@RashiiKitsuke]

That was truly and amazingly done video, as always I was rooting for your success. But even though you lost in the end, you made it work out really well with the story you were telling! I really hope to see more like this, story telling wise, I can only imagine how painfully long those battles were.

[@ShadowAgent94]

Only about 6 minutes in but I loved the dark twist on the nuzlocke rule narration, and in general the storytelling for this is on point.

I started streaming myself this year with my own FireRed Normal-type pseudo-Nuzlocke so with regards to your endeavors, I wish you luck.

[@AzureKite]

As always, the single most creative pokemon creator out there gives us a BANGER. That explanation of the nuzlocke rules in-universer is amazing. As always, ETU never fails to entertain.

Fun Fact about block: If you defeat the pokemon that used block, you can switch out again. That doesnt work when said pokemon was switched out, but in this case, you couldve been able to save Florp.

Also, the Block might have guaranteed that Florp would die, but it was also locked into Thrash. I don't think you can switch out mid-Thrash anyway, so it was giga dead. Thank you Florp for your contributions, you will be missed o7
