I am aware it can call OHKO moves, such as sheer cold, but are there any moves that cannot be called by Metronome?

by
Of course, Metronome cannot be called. Also, from another question it appears that Sketch cannot be called by Metronome.
This is a duplicate question, but the answer to this one is much more up to date.
I’ll just flag it real quick and let a moderator decide.
Since mee already answered this with an up to date version, I'm going to close the original and keep this one. If another staff disagrees, please do what you like.
I don't want to hide the old question just yet because this question's answer is missing information about older games. Additionally, Bulbapedia doesn't say whether metronome can call moves that the user knows in gen 8.

So, yes. There are moves that cannot be called by Metronome. Actually, quite a lot of them are excluded.
edit: I had to type the whole thing because Bulbapedia has that weird checkbox thing
