The official tournament circuit for competitive play in Pokémon is the Video Game Championships (VGC), established in 2009, which in different territories is managed by different groups. At the recent Korean Pokemon Trainers Cup Finals some players, upset at what they saw as mismanagement generally and in particular a poor tournament format, organised a protest during a dead rubber match: All would use Pokémon equipped with Metronome, a command that chooses almost any move in the game at random, and just spam Metronome through the match.
This would obviously lead to some bizarre matchups, and the cherry on the cake as far as the pros were concerned is the in-game text for Metronome: Pokémon wag their fingers back-and-forth to summon the move.
