  • 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!

    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
