Info
The random hack got started from a simple idea; what if the only move you could use was metronome?
You introduce a major element of chaos, as well as throw out all meta.
But if you need a bright side, it would make the pokemon themselves shine all the more.
When move choice is irrelevant all you're left with is all the things tied specifically to species.
The power of your type resistance, abilities (to an extent), and your stats.
Since you're not pulling off one-hit kills with uber moves, or destroying your opponent's foundation with the strategy you really get a sense for each mon's relative bulk and other strengths.
Because of the obvious limits of your only move being metronome, there are a few cavities to the concept.
1. This isn't a normal metronome, the move list is expanded, and several moves it normally couldn't do are now available to it. Also, the PP has been increased.
2. To avoid struggle and make captures a little easier, most movesets aren't "strictly metronome" I expanded the original idea to any non-damaging move that is natural to that pokemon.
For example, early game Squirtle learns tackle water gun tail whip, and leer and withdraw.
After removing the damage moves you're left with tail whip leer and withdraw.
All moves that are natural, leer or glaring, shaking their tail, or withdrawing into a shell are all natural animal behaviors. That Squirtle wouldn't necessarily need a move to do.
List of Features

- HMs can be used without having to be learned, or win certain gym badges.
- EV training is quick and easy
- Full EV train after defeating only 20 pokemon
- You can fight gyms in any order,(except the 8th gym leader)
