We show there is no categorical metric continuum. This means that for every metric continuum X there is another metric continuum Y such that X and Y have (countable) elementarily equivalent bases but X and Y are not homeomorphic. As an application we show that the chainability of the pseudoarc is not a first-order property of its lattice of closed sets.
