This is the first episode of a new WEEKLY series! So this isn't just an occasional free video. Public videos on this channel are a new mainstay going forward.
Kabuto: Longtime enemy of Mikey because of the sprained wrist incident. Miltank: Longtime enemy of Mikey because of various reasons, one of those being Milk Drink. So it makes sense that the two combined would turn into his ultimate foe.
There's a reason the Power Whip didn't KO Kabuto. It unbelievably got Power Swap against that Dwebble on the immediate next turn after Dodrio's Memento, forcing the sacrificial -2 Attack and Sp. Atk drops onto Mikey's side. Add that in with the several healing moves and 4x effective hits and you've seen the most outrageous string of near-consistent good luck I've watched any one Pokémon get with Metronome.

Spraining his wrist? How so? I know he talked about that at the end of the video but have no idea how it happened. Is it a joke or did it actually happen?
@@davidstratton696 He was clicking A for so long to get a shiny kabuto, on both hands, that one got somewhat damaged, and the other one straight up got sprain'ed
I never thought we'd see a more evil metronome Pokemon than the Lotad that swept John in the JMC Season 1 finale. However, I think this Kabuto takes the cake, especially with the emotional damage of using two milk drinks on top of being the Pokemon that sprained Mikey's wrist.
So first, Kabuto wrongs Mikey by spraining his wrist, and now it's triggering war flashbacks of Whitney's Miltank. There are layers to Mikey's torment.
If you really wanna feel old then here's a terrifying fact for you. Once the next generation starts, we'll have had the Fairy type for as many generations as we didn't. Newer five vs older five.
John talking about the satisfaction of watching an opponent die to perish song before Jim decided to sing an opera in front of an angry snorunt throwing seashells at Jim until Jim died is amazinf
I will never get tired of their chaotic conversations, I feel like I'm sitting in the room with them it's so casual! Mikey singing Hannah Montanna, talk of buying each other capes, this is magic
Fair play to John for not skipping Rich Boy Winston after being swept by his Lotad before only to find Lotad immediately afterwards is seriously funny.
Kabuto just cemented his spot as Mikey’s 2nd least favorite Pokemon: First the shiny hunt that sprained his wrist and now a sweep spamming milk drink 😂
I appreciate the random Wolfey shoutout when Parting Shot came up. Good to know his hatred for Incineroar even influences non-VGC content creators... xD
So, Let's recap: Mikey's Gastrodon is up against Lady Cindy's Kabuto. First turn, Kabuto triggers Storm Drain with Water Pledge and then Electrifies Gastrodon, making the next move electric type, which would have been bad with its raised special attack. But Gastrodon tries to Sucker Punch and fails a possible KO. Then, Gastrodon Quiver Dances, raising its special attack even more, but then uses Super Fang and does a set amount of damage. Kabuto then bites, using Gastrodon's Oran Berry and Gastrodon finally uses its special attack with Disarming Voice, but it doesn't kill. Lady Cindy then Full Restores because this battle just so happened to be one of the 2 early game NPC's that do that. Gastrodon tries to Horn Drill for an easy KO, but it fails since its lower level than Kabuto by a 1 level difference. Gastrodon then Fiery Dances, raising its special attack again but is then knocked down to red HP before it can use it. When Mikey switches Gastrodon for Bellossom, Kabuto Glares it first turn, paralysing it. Mikey switches Bellossom for Swanna after its ability gets suppressed and Kabuto uses Freeze-Dry that exact turn. The singular ice type move that would not be neutral, but be 4 times super effective against a Water/Flying type. It Crits and KO's swanna before it can even move. Mikey switches in Leavanny, and Kabuto uses another 4 times super effective move, Brave Bird. It OHKO's Leavanny, and survives the recoil with red HP. Thinking red doesn't suit it very well, it Milk Drinks back to green health as Mikey brings in Dwebble. It then Bides, and Dwebble damages it that turn but then it tries to fling without a held item on the turn that Kabuto stores for energy. Bide doesn't kill and Dwebble raises its attack with Meditate. Then Kabuto Milk Drinks Again! Restoring its HP back to green. Dwebble fails a sing. Kabuto then thinks that some Special Defense buffs would be nice and brewes up a sandstorm, and on that specific turn Mikey's Rock type Baton Passes. Mikey switches in Dodrio who Mementos first turn, killing itself instantly. And as if that wasn't enough, Kabuto uses Moonlight, healing itself to nearly full HP. When Dwebble switches back in, Kabuto uses Power Swap, transferring the Memento debuffs it just got to Dwebble. And then it Double Teams, and Wishes. Dwebble then uses Role-Play, changing its ability from Shell Armor, which blocks Critical hits, to Battle Armor, which does the exact same thing. Kabuto then Play Roughs, almost killing Dwebble. Dwebble fights back with finally a 4 times super effective Power Whip, but because of the Memento Attack drops it doesn't kill, and Wish heals it back up. A frustrated Mikey switches in Bellossom, as Kabuto uses Icicle Spear, gets a 4 hit, and drops Bellossom to red HP. Then kills it next turn. As Gastrodon switches in, Kabuto heals back to full HP with Morning Sun. It then triggers Storm Drain twice which does nothing as Gastrodon uses physical moves, last one being Superpower which lowers its Defense. Kabuto is at red HP, spits dirt at its enemy and kills Gastrodon with a Crit Mud Shot. And then finally flexes its might as it kills Mikey's last Pokémon, his low HP Dwebble, with Hyper Beam. This is the craziest Metronome battle i've seen since MBF. And its against a Pokémon that caused Mikey physical injury, utilizing the dirty milky tactics of his least favourite Pokémon.
This just in: Aurorus and Kabuto are now Public Enemy #1 for John and Mikey, respectively. 😂 (We already knew about Kabuto for Mikey, but this serves as a grim reminder-)
I literally bent down laughing cuz I was walking around a little bit about to pat a cat when Mikey said that. It’s especially funny to me because I’ve been doing odd little vocal stims when at home (more often than I usually do) for a few days now so it just resonates with me so much
Yes! These Metronome Randomizer Nuzlockes are always great! I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how this one goes! This first episode was a great start to the series! Also Mikey saying he's neurodivergent really struck a chord with me since I'm neurodivergent myself and to know that one of my two favorite PokéTubers is too just makes me so happy! Also I would definitely say that the condensation dripped all over me too...I actually use that as my reason to not drink any cold beverage in the car because I hate when my clothes get wet from the condensation getting everywhere. 😅
For Mikey's question on the dots on the map in Professor Birch's lab: I have a theory that's where the legendary trio is, since one is on Mt. Chimney, one is roughly where Sky Pillar is, and the last is roughly where I think Kyogre is at. Edit: John literally answered with this directly after I unpaused lol
Guys! I am sorry for your poor luck, but I've got to say this was wildly entertaining! 🤣😂🤣 I needed this so bad and have been laughing so hard! That was awesome!
I just wanna say how much I enjoy how unedited this video is, it really reminds me of the original two Metronome Nuzlockes from both of y'all, especially compared to the current content, which I'm sure people love but isn't for me, I struggle to comprehend them even at a pretty basic level.
this was so fun to watch, it is absolutely hilarious to watch the pain you two go through lmao ngl tho I'm happy mikey also got a bunch of deaths at the end, this is still anyone's game
