- Team previewMiMo V2.6 Flash brought
Torkoal,venusaur,gholdengoSun core is the plan: Torkoal sets Drought for Eruption and enables Chlorophyll Venusaur to outspeed everything. Gholdengo rounds it out as a special wallbreaker that handles Annihilape, Garchomp, and Kingambit, which otherwise trouble Venusaur.
Reasoning trace (40 words)
Sun team: Torkoal leads to set sun, Venusaur chlorophyll sweeper, Gholdengo as backup. Opponent has Incineroar (intimidate, fire) which threatens Venusaur... but sun solarbeam. Torkoal eruption in sun is strong. Gholdengo good vs Annihilape/Garchomp/Kingambit. Standard sun lead: Torkoal, Venusaur, Gholdengo.
Gemma 4 31B broughtIncineroar,palafin,gholdengoThe opponent has a balanced team with a Fire-Water-Grass core. Incineroar provides essential utility and Intimidate, Palafin offers immense physical pressure, and Gholdengo provides strong special offense and status immunity.
Reasoning trace (59 words)
The opponent has a classic Fire-Water-Grass core (Torkoal, Rotom-W, Venusaur) plus Gholdengo, Garchomp, and Kingambit. I need a strong core to counter this. Incineroar is essential for Intimidate and Fake Out. Palafin provides massive Water-type pressure and priority. Gholdengo is a great special attacker and utility piece. Deciding factor: Core synergy and coverage against the opponent's likely leads.

PartingshotTorkoal is very slow and passive. Parting Shot allows me to lower its attack and pivot into a strong counter like Palafin or Garchomp immediately.
Reasoning trace (78 words)
Torkoal is extremely slow and sets sun. Incineroar's Fake Out is the standard lead play to break focus sashes or gain momentum, but since Torkoal is so slow and passive, Parting Shot allows for a safe pivot into a counter like Palafin or Garchomp while lowering Torkoal's attack. However, Fake Out is the safest immediate play to see what the opponent does. Actually, Parting Shot is better here to get a strong attacker in immediately. Deciding factor: momentum/pivot.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedEruptionTorkoal is at full HP, so Eruption fires at max 150 BP. Even though Incineroar resists Fire, sun-boosted Eruption still does significant damage, and Torkoal will likely move first against the slower Incineroar or at least trade damage before losing HP and weakening Eruption. Attacking now preserves the move's power.
Reasoning trace (169 words)
Torkoal at full HP with Eruption at 150 BP in sun vs Incineroar. Even at -1 Atk, Eruption is special so -Atk doesn't matter. Sun boosts it50%. Eruption should hit Incineroar hard, though Incineroar is Fire/Dark so it resists Fire. Sun-boosted 150 BP Eruption at -0 SpA from137 SpA vs Incineroar... It's resisted (0.5x) but sun boosted (1.5x) =0.75x effective. Base 150 BP. That does decent damage but probably not a KO. Still, Torkoal outspeeds nothing. Incineroar might use Knock Off, Flare Blitz, or set up. Eruption at full HP is the strongest play - no real reason to do anything else. Stealth Rock is good too but Eruption does big damage. Actually, Stealth Rock might be better long-term since Incineroar resists Eruption. But Eruption still does solid damage. Let me think - Torkoal is slow, will take a hit. If it takes a hit, Eruption loses power. So attacking now is better than setting rocks, since Torkoal will likely be slower and take damage. I'll go with Eruption.
Gemma 4 31B switched toPalafinTorkoal is passive and slow. Palafin needs to enter the field to activate its Zero to Hero ability, making this the ideal time to switch it in.
Reasoning trace (153 words)
The opponent has Torkoal, which is very slow and currently has -2 Attack and -1 Special Attack. I just used Parting Shot, but the prompt says "Your active Pokémon: Incineroar", meaning the Parting Shot happened but I haven't switched yet (or the turn sequence is showing the result of the move before the switch). Wait, looking at the "Recent Turns", Parting Shot was used. In a standard turn, Parting Shot switches the user out. However, the "Legal Actions" only show switching to Palafin or Gholdengo. Wait, looking at the state: Incineroar is still active. This means the Parting Shot happened, but the game is now asking for the switch-in. Torkoal is a passive sun setter. Palafin needs to get in and out to activate Zero to Hero. Gholdengo is a strong special attacker. Deciding factor: Palafin needs to enter the field to trigger its ability. Torkoal is not a threat to Palafin.

WavecrashTorkoal is extremely slow and has been hit by stat drops. Palafin has a massive type advantage and should be able to secure a knockout with Wave Crash.
Reasoning trace (49 words)
Torkoal is extremely slow and has been hit by two stat drops (ATK -2, SPA -1). Palafin is faster and has a massive type advantage. Wave Crash should easily secure a knockout, even in the sun, given Torkoal's low special bulk and Palafin's high attack. Deciding factor: likely knockout.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedStealthrockPalafin is in base form and Water moves are halved by sun, so it can't threaten Torkoal — but Eruption at -1 spa through a resisted hit likely falls short of the KO. Setting Stealth Rock now banks permanent chip against the opponent's switches while Torkoal safely eats any hit.
Reasoning trace (753 words)
Palafin at 59% in sun - its Water moves are weakened by sun. But Palafin likely has Jet Punch/Wave Crash. Torkoal is at full HP with huge Defense, but Palafin's Attack... Zero to Hero gives 1.5x boost when hero form. Actually wait, it switched in via Parting Shot, so it's in base form (zero form) - it needs to switch out to become hero. Actually in the replay it says ability zerotohero but it's in base form since it came in from party. Hmm, but it was revealed... it says Palafin came in - base form. In base form Palafin is weak. Sun reduces water moves by 50%. Torkoal is physically bulky. Eruption at 150 BP with -1 spa in sun... against59% HP Palafin with 62 base SpDef - probably won't KO but chip. Actually sun boosts fire moves 1.5x. So Eruption: 150 BP * 1.5 sun * 0.67 spa mod = effective strong. Palafin SpDef 62 base is frail. Could KO. But Palafin could KO Torkoal? Base form attack 70, not hero boosted. Water move in sun halved. Torkoal defense 176. Not threatening. Alternative: set up Stealth Rock which is free. Or switch to Venusaur to absorb Water move and threaten with Solar Beam/Growth in sun. Palafin might switch out to become hero. Hmm. Stealth Rock seems safe value - Palafin can't KO Torkoal, and hazards help. But Eruption could knock out Palafin which is bigger value. Let me estimate: Torkoal spa 137, -1 = 0.67 → 91.8 effective. Sun 1.5x fire. Eruption 150 BP. Against Palafin:72 def... wait special defense 62 base. Effective SpDef at level 50 with base 62: ~110ish. Damage ≈ (91.8*150*1.5/110 + 2) * 0.5 (not very effective? Fire vs Water =0.5). Hmm Fire vs Water is not very effective. So:91.8*150*1.5/110 ≈ 187.8 + 2 = 189.8 * 0.5 ≈ 95 * 0.67 (spa mod already applied)... wait I already applied. Let me redo: attack stat = 137 * 0.67 ≈ 91.8. Damage = ((2*50/5+2) * 91.8 * 150 / def) ... standard formula: ((2*Level/5+2)*BP*A/D)/50 +2, then modifiers. Base: (2*50/5+2)=22. 22*91.8*150/D. D for SpDef 62 base≈ 110. → 22*91.8*150/110 = 2754. /50 = 55 + 2 = 57. Modifiers: sun 1.5, stab? No STAB (Fire move on Fire type - yes STAB 1.5). So 57*1.5*1.5 = 128 * 0.5 (type) = 64. So ~64% of Palafin's 59% - actually 64 damage out of ~ let's say max HP 330ish for Palafin? Palafin HP base 100 → max HP at 50 ≈ 165? Level 50, HP base 100 → roughly 160-165. 59% = ~97 HP. 64 damage doesn't KO. Hmm, so Eruption does ~64, not enough. Stealth Rock would chip switch-ins. Palafin in base form isn't threatening. Switch to Venusaur? Venusaur is Grass/Poison, resists Water. In sun with Chlorophyll it'd be fast. Palafin likely uses a water move - not effective on Venusaur. Venusaur could then Growth +2 in sun. Actually switching to Venusaur gives good positioning: sun-boosted Chlorophyll speed, Growth opportunity. But Palafin could switch to something else... unknown moves. Alternatively Stealth Rock is a permanent gain while Torkoal tanks a hit easily. Palafin's water move in sun vs Torkoal: Torkoal has176 def but SpDef only 92 base (~110). Base form attack 70. Water move 80 BP... very low damage. So free turn basically. But if Palafin switches to Gholdengo/Kingambit/Garchomp/Annihilape, Torkoal stays in badly. Stealth Rock still valuable then. Hmm. Venusaur switch seems strong: sun team, Venusaur is ace. In sun Venusaur outspeeds everything with Chlorophyll. Palafin base form weak. Even if Palafin switches to Gholdengo, Venusaur threatens with... hmm Gholdengo resists Grass? Steel resists Grass, Poison neutral. Venusaur has Sludge Bomb (neutral on Gholdengo, super effective? Steel/Poison - Sludge Bomb is Poison, Steel immune? No, Steel resists Poison. Ghost neutral. So not very effective). Hmm. If Palafin switches to Garchomp, Venusaur has... Garchomp resists Grass? No, Ground takes neutral from Grass. Actually Garchomp Dragon/Ground - Grass hits Ground super effective? No wait, Grass vs Ground is... Ground is weak to Grass? No - Ground is weak to Grass? Let me recall: Ground weaknesses: Water, Grass, Ice. Yes Ground weak to Grass. Dragon resists Grass. So neutral overall. I'll go with Stealth Rock - safe, permanent value, Torkoal eats any hit. Actually, consider that Palafin will likely switch out to become Hero form. Then hazards help. Actually another consideration: Eruption's power depends on HP - full HP so 150. We computed ~64 dmg, not KO. So chip isn't enough. Stealth Rock is better long-term value. I'll choose stealthrock.

JetpunchTorkoal is heavily debuffed and at 67% HP. Jet Punch provides priority and safe damage to secure the knockout without the recoil risk of Wave Crash, which would put Palafin in critical range.
Reasoning trace (61 words)
Torkoal is heavily debuffed (-2 Atk, -1 SpA) and at 67% HP. Palafin is at 48.8% HP. Jet Punch is a priority move and should deal significant damage to Torkoal, potentially securing a KO or leaving it in range for a follow-up. Wave Crash is too risky due to recoil and Palafin's current HP. Deciding factor: likely knockout with minimal risk.
MiMo V2.6 Flash switched toVenusaurPalafin outspeeds Torkoal and Wave Crash will likely knock it out, while Torkoal's weakened Eruption won't KO through Water resistance. Venusaur comes in safely on a Water move, and sun-boosted Chlorophyll lets it outspeed and threaten back.
Reasoning trace (107 words)
Palafin at 48%, Torkoal at 67.8% with -1 SPA. Eruption at 67.8% HP does decent damage but boosted by sun. Palafin is Water, resists... no, Fire vs Water is not very effective (0.5x). Sun doesn't boost through resistance fully. Eruption at 150 BP * 0.5 (resist) * 1.5 (sun) * (120/177 power)... likely not KO on 48% Palafin. Palafin would KO Torkoal with Wave Crash. Better to switch to Venusaur — Chlorophyll in sun, outspeeds, and resists Water. Then Solar Beam... but Solar Beam needs charge in non-sun; in sun it fires immediately. Venusaur outspeeds Palafin (base 100 Spe, plus chlorophyll boost). Switch to Venusaur seems best.

IncineroarPalafin is in a terrible matchup against Venusaur, especially in the sun where Venusaur likely has Solar Beam. Switching to Incineroar provides a strong offensive threat and Intimidate support.
Reasoning trace (32 words)
Palafin is in a terrible matchup against Venusaur (4x resistance to Water, likely Solar Beam in Sun). Switching to Incineroar provides a strong offensive threat and Intimidate support. Deciding factor: bad matchup.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedSludgebombPalafin is at 48% and Sludge Bomb is a reliable, accurate hit that should secure the knockout in sun, while Solar Beam needs sun (available) but Water-types often carry Ice moves or pivot out — Sludge Bomb is the safe, decisive pick for speed and the KO.
Reasoning trace (45 words)
Palafin at 48% — Sludge Bomb should knock out. Venusaur isn't Mega yet (needs mega evolution... but tera not available; mega presumably automatic? Venusaurite — in this format, mega likely happens automatically). Chlorophyll in sun gives speed. Sludge Bomb is reliable and likely a KO.

PartingshotIncineroar is poisoned and faces Venusaur, a bad matchup. Parting Shot allows a safe pivot to a teammate while lowering Venusaur's offensive stats.
Reasoning trace (69 words)
The opponent has Venusaur active in the sun. Incineroar is poisoned and at ~58% HP. Venusaur is a bad matchup for Incineroar. Gholdengo is a great switch-in to Sludge Bomb and can threaten Venusaur with Make It Rain (though Venusaur resists Steel, Gholdengo is generally safer). However, Parting Shot allows for a pivot to a better counter while lowering Venusaur's stats. Deciding factor: bad matchup to switch out of.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedSludgebombIncineroar is poisoned and already weakened, so Sludge Bomb is a reliable way to pressure or KO it while also chunking anything that switches in. Sleep Powder's 75% accuracy is too risky when the sun-powered offense can just apply steady damage.
Reasoning trace (148 words)
Venusaur is fast (chlorophyll in sun, Mega Venusaur... wait, ability shows chlorophyll but item is venusaurite — mega changes to thick fat, but sun speed... Actually the state says ability chlorophyll, speed 100). Incineroar at 57% poisoned. Sludge bomb should kill it? Incineroar 95 base HP, 57% of ~likely 300ish HP at level 50... Venusaur spa 167 with sludge bomb 90 BP. Might not KO. Sleep powder could neutralize. Poison will tick too. Sludge Bomb at -1 atk? No, that's physical atk, spa unaffected. Likely near KO. Incineroar may Parting Shot out. Sleep powder risky at 75%. Sludge Bomb is reliable; if Incineroar stays, it takes damage + poison tick (21 damage). Poison does ~1/8 = about 38 HP?57% → poison damage1/8 of max. If 57% is ~170/300, poison does ~37, leaving ~30%.Best: Sludge Bomb for damage, guaranteed. Could also growth to set up. I'll pick sludge bomb.
Gemma 4 31B switched toGholdengoIncineroar is critically low on HP and poisoned, making it a liability. Gholdengo resists Sludge Bomb and can put immediate pressure on Venusaur.
Reasoning trace (70 words)
The opponent's Venusaur has -2 Attack and -1 Special Attack. Incineroar is very low on HP (60/202) and poisoned. Gholdengo is a strong switch-in here, as it resists Poison and can threaten Venusaur with Make It Rain or Shadow Ball. Palafin is too low on HP and doesn't provide as much utility/pressure as Gholdengo in this specific matchup. Deciding factor: bad matchup to switch out of (Incineroar is nearly KO'd).
- Turn 6MiMo V2.6 Flash switched to
GholdengoGholdengo resists Venusaur's Sludge Bomb and threatens a KO with Shadow Ball or Make It Rain, while Venusaur is at a special attack drop. Switching to my own Gholdengo gives a favorable matchup: it resists Steel, blocks status with Good as Gold, and can threaten back or set up.
Reasoning trace (160 words)
Gholdengo is Steel/Ghost, immune to Sludge Bomb? No, Poison hits Steel not very effectively (0.5x), and Ghost doesn't resist poison. So Sludge Bomb would be not very effective. Venusaur is at -1 SpA. Gholdengo likely threatens with Make It Rain or Shadow Ball. Best option: switch to Gholdengo (mirror) or Kingambit... Kingambit not in legal switches. Switch to our Gholdengo — Good as Gold blocks status, resists Steel, immune to... Shadow Ball hits our Gholdengo neutrally. Our Gholdengo at -1 SpA would... Actually switching to our Gholdengo seems solid; it's at full HP with Life Orb. Alternatively Sleep Powder has 75% accuracy and would neutralize Gholdengo. If it lands, Venusaur can then do things. But if it fails, Venusaur takes a big hit. Switching to our Gholdengo seems safest — defensive matchup. Opponent Gholdengo's Make It Rain would do decent damage but ours resists Steel (0.5x). Shadow Ball neutral. Our Gholdengo can recover or nasty plot. I'll switch to gholdengo.
Gemma 4 31B usedNastyplotVenusaur has severe stat drops (-2 ATK, -1 SPA) and is slower than Gholdengo, making it a non-threat. Nasty Plot allows Gholdengo to set up safely and prepare for the rest of the opponent's team.
Reasoning trace (230 words)
Venusaur is at -2 Attack and -1 Special Attack. Gholdengo is much faster (106 vs 80) and has a massive Special Attack advantage. Make It Rain is a powerful Steel move, but Venusaur resists it. Shadow Ball is neutral. However, Venusaur's current stats are so crippled that Gholdengo can safely set up or attack. Deciding factor: Venusaur's severe stat drops make it a non-threat, allowing Gholdengo to boost its power. Wait, Make It Rain is Steel, Venusaur is Grass/Poison. Steel is resisted by Grass and Poison. Shadow Ball is neutral. Nasty Plot would make Gholdengo an absolute monster. Let's check if Shadow Ball KOs. Venusaur has 100 SPD. Gholdengo has 203 SPA + Life Orb. Shadow Ball: (203/100 * 80 * 1.3 * 0.8) approx. Actually, with -1 SPA, Venusaur cannot do much damage to Gholdengo. Nasty Plot is the safest and most rewarding play here to prepare for the rest of the opponent's team (Torkoal, Garchomp, Rotom-W, Kingambit). Wait, looking at the opponent's team: Torkoal, Garchomp, Rotom-Wash, Kingambit. Gholdengo is a great check to some, but Nasty Plot now puts it in a position to sweep or force switches. Actually, Shadow Ball might just KO it. But Nasty Plot is safer and sets up a win condition. Let's re-evaluate: Venusaur is at 91%. Shadow Ball might not KO. Make It Rain is resisted. Nasty Plot is the best play.

ShadowballMy Gholdengo is faster and has a +2 Special Attack boost. Shadow Ball should be a guaranteed knockout against the opposing Gholdengo.
Reasoning trace (35 words)
The deciding factor is the speed advantage and the +2 Special Attack boost. My Gholdengo is faster (106 vs 84) and heavily boosted, allowing it to potentially OHKO the opposing Gholdengo with Shadow Ball.
MiMo V2.6 Flash switched toTorkoalOpponent's Gholdengo is at +2 Spa and threatens a likely knockout with Make It Rain or Shadow Ball. I'm not in position to KO it back unboosted, so I should switch to a Steel resist; Torkoal's Fire typing resists Make It Rain and can take the hit to reposition.
Reasoning trace (852 words)
The opponent's Gholdengo has +2 spa and will likely use Make It Rain or Shadow Ball. My Gholdengo is at full HP with lifeorb. I'm faster (SPE 106 vs 84 base... my spe stat is 106 vs their 84). So I move first. With +2 vs my 0 boost: their Make It Rain would likely knock me out. I should consider recover - but if they2HKO me, recover stalls. Actually, my speed advantage means I move first - but can I KO them? They're at 93% HP. My Make It Rain without boosts probably doesn't KO. If I Shadow Ball first (they're Ghost weak? No, Steel resists... Shadow Ball is Ghost, Gholdengo is Steel/Ghost - Ghost hits Ghost for super effective, Steel resists Ghost? No, Steel doesn't resist Ghost. So Ghost hits Steel/Ghost for 2x super effective from ghost side, steel is neutral... actually Steel resists Ghost? No. Ghost is resisted by Dark only (and Normal immunity). So Shadow Ball hits Gholdengo for super effective (Ghost vs Ghost). Wait - Ghost vs Steel/Ghost: Ghost is super effective against Ghost, Steel takes neutral from Ghost. So 2x super effective. My Shadow Ball at 203 spa with STAB vs their +2 spa... I don't have boosts. Their SpD is 91 base. My Shadow Ball would do maybe 40-50%. Not a KO. Their +2 Make It Rain or Shadow Ball would likely OHKO or 2HKO me. Best play might be to switch to a resist. Make It Rain is Steel - switch to Torkoal (Fire resists Steel). Or resist Shadow Ball... Dark resists Ghost - but I don't have a Dark type... Kingambit is Dark/Steel but not in legal switches. Switching Torkoal in: Fire resists Steel (Make It Rain). If they use Shadow Ball, Torkoal takes neutral. Torkoal at 67.8% could take a hit. But then what? Opponent has +2 spa Gholdengo. Torkoal is slow and weak specially (SpD 92). Actually, maybe recover to stall? They're faster? No, I'm faster (SPE 106 vs 84). Hmm, speed: my spe stat 106, theirs base 84 - their actual spe stat unknown but base 84 at level 50 is around 100ish... Hard to say exactly. Base 84 Spe at L50 with neutral nature and 0 IV/EV ≈ 84*2+31 = 199/2+... actually formula: (2*84+31+0)*50/100+5 = (168+31)*0.5+5 = 99.5+5 = 104.5≈ 104. Mine: (2*106... wait, SPE stat 106 is already the actual stat, not base. My SPE stat is 106. Wait, re-reading: "Stats: [HP: 194, ATK: 72, DEF: 115, SPA: 203, SPD: 111, SPE: 106]" - these are actual stats. My SPE = 106. Their base SPE = 84. At level 50, likely actual SPE around 104 (0 IV/EV, neutral) or up to 117+ with investment. Could go either way. Given they Nasty Plotted last turn, they're set up to sweep. I should probably switch to something that can take a hit. Torkoal resists Steel (Make It Rain). But if they Shadow Ball, Torkoal takes neutral damage at67.8%. Actually, maybe just use Recover to scout? If they hit me, I lose HP but recover back. If I'm faster, I recover first... that doesn't help much. Given uncertainty, switching to Torkoal seems reasonable - Fire resists Steel, and Torkoal has high Defense/SpD... SpD 92 is low though. Actually, the opponent will likely use Make It Rain (their strongest STAB with +2). Torkoal resists it. Let's switch to Torkoal. Hmm, but then Torkoal is stuck in with low SpD against a +2 Gholdengo. Alternative: Venusaur resists... Grass/Poison takes neutral from Steel, 2x from... no. Venusaur SpD 122 is decent. But Venusaur has -1 spa from Parting Shot and is at92%. Actually maybe just stay in and use Shadow Ball. If I'm faster, I deal super effective damage. If I KO them, problem solved. But at 93% HP with my unboosted Shadow Ball (80 BP, STAB = 120 effective, life orb ~156), vs their SpD 91 base... probably does 50-60%. Not enough. Make It Rain is 120 BP STAB with life orb - even stronger but Steel vs Steel/Ghost is 1x... wait Steel vs Steel = 0.5x, Steel vs Ghost = 1x. So 0.5x. That's weak. Actually let me reconsider - maybe I should nastyplot too? If I'm faster and they don't attack... but they already +2, they'll attack. I think switching to Torkoal to absorb the Make It Rain is reasonable, then coming back. But Torkoal has poor SpD. What about switching Venusaur? Venusaur takes Steel at 1x (Grass/Poison both neutral to Steel). SpD 122. Hmm, tough call. Let me think about what kills me. Opponent +2 Make It Rain at 133 base spa vs my 111 SpD. Life orb or not? Unknown item. Given I can't calculate precisely, I'll go with switching to Torkoal to resist the likely Make It Rain, giving me a pivot opportunity. Actually wait - maybe the safest is just to use Recover. If I'm faster, I heal (but I'm at full HP already - useless). If slower, they hit me first, then I recover... but if they KO me, I don't get to recover. I think switching to a resist is best. Torkoal resists Steel moves.

Likely a KO or near. Venusaur resists Shadow Ball? No, Venusaur is Grass/Poison — takes neutral from Ghost. But Venusaur at 92% could survive a +2 Shadow Ball? Maybe. Sunny day is up. Venusaur has chlorophyll... but ability shown as chlorophyll (not overgrow? mega venusaurite). Venusaur outspeeds and can... Solarbeam in sun, but Gholdengo resists? Grass vs Steel — resisted. Sludge Bomb vs Gholdengo — Steel resists poison. Hmm. Gholdengo is faster? My Gholdengo SPE 106 vs opponent 84 base. My Gholdengo outspeeds. Shadow Ball from my Gholdengo at 100% vs their 84% — could KO? Their SpD 91 base, my SPA 203 with Life Orb. +2 opponent threatens KO on me though. If I stay in, opponent at +2 Shadow Ball likely KOs me before... no, I'm faster. I attack first — do I KO them at 84%? Shadow Ball 80 BP Life Orb vs 84% HP... probably not a KO. Then they +2 Shadow Ball me. Switching to Venusaur: takes a +2 Shadow Ball, neutral, Venusaur SpD 122, decent HP. Might survive. Then Venusaur can't do much damage to Gholdengo though. Actually my Gholdengo has Shadow Ball too — same matchup. If I switch Venusaur in, Venusaur takes hit, then opponent can Shadow Ball again. Venusaur can't threaten back (both moves resisted). My Gholdengo: Shadow Ball vs their Gholdengo — neutral, both same type. I'm faster and full HP. Their +2 Shadow Ball vs me: Life Orb +2 SPA 133... vs my SpD 111 base, 194 HP. Could be a KO. Risky. Hmm, but if I switch Venusaur, Venusaur takes the hit instead — Venusaur SpD 122, 172 HP. Probably survives better. But then Venusaur is dead weight. Actually consider: my Gholdengo Shadow Ball might put them in range, then... I only get one action. If I stay in and don't KO, I die to +2 Shadow Ball. Let me estimate: +2 Life Orb Shadow Ball from base 133 SPA. Roughly: 133 base SPA at level 50 → stat ~ 2*133/... level 50 formula: (2*133+31+63)*50/100+5 = (266+94)*0.5+5 = 180+5=185. ×2 (nasty plot) = 370 effective... times Life Orb 1.3. Shadow Ball 80 BP, STAB 1.5. vs my SpD: (2*111+31+63)*0.5+5 = (222+94)*0.5+5=158+5=163. Damage ≈ ((2*50/50+2)*80/163... this is getting complex. Roughly: base damage = (2*50/5+2)*80*185/163 ≈ 22*80*1.135 ≈ 1997... /50 ≈ 40... times STAB 1.5 = 60, times LO 1.3 = 78, times 2 (nasty plot boost already in 185? no I doubled stat already). Hmm I doubled the stat already. So ~78% + variance. Not quite a KO but close. Actually my calc: I used 370 as effective SPA? Let me redo: stat 185, ×2 = 370. Damage = ((2*50/5+2)*80*(370/163))/50... Standard: Damage = ((2*Level/5+2)*BP*A/D)/50 + 2, then modifiers. = ((20+2)*80*(370/163))/50 + 2 = (22*80*2.27)/50+2 = (4000)/50+2 ≈ 80+2 = 82. ×STAB 1.5 = 123 ×LO 1.3 = 160. That's way over 194? 160 vs 194 HP — about 82%. Not a KO but close, could KO with crit. My Shadow Ball vs them: my SPA 203 base → stat (406+94)*0.5+5 = 205. vs their SpD 91 → (182+94)*0.5+5=143. Damage = (22*80*(205/143))/50+2 = (22*80*1.434)/50+2 = 2523/50+2 ≈ 52. ×1.5 STAB ×1.3 LO = 101. vs their 84% of 174 HP ≈ 146. Not a KO. So staying in: I hit them to ~15%, they hit me to ~18%. Then next turn I KO. But they're +2 and might... wait, they don't need to be faster — I'm faster (106 vs 84). So turn 8: I Shadow Ball, they survive at ~15%, they Shadow Ball me to ~18%. Turn 9: I KO them. So staying in works if my damage estimate is right and they don't crit. But wait — do I outspeed? My SPE 106 stat vs their 84 base → their stat (168+94)*0.5+5 = 136. Mine 106 base → (212+94)*0.5+5 = 158. Yes I'm faster. Hmm but the legal actions only give switch gholdengo or switch venusaur — wait, my active is fainted Torkoal, so I must switch. The legal actions are only the two switches. So I choose between Gholdengo and Venusaur. Given my Gholdengo likely survives +2 Shadow Ball (~82%) and outspeeds, bringing Gholdengo in lets me attack next turn. But Gholdengo entering takes... no hazard on my side. Venusaur entering takes neutral Shadow Ball too but can't damage Gholdengo. Actually wait — if I bring in Venusaur, Venusaur takes the Shadow Ball this turn (free switch, opponent attacks the incoming mon). Venusaur at 172 HP takes ~? +2 Shadow Ball vs SpD 122 → (244+94)*0.5+5=174. Damage = 22*80*(370/174)/50+2 = 22*80*2.126/50+2 = 3742/50+2 ≈ 77. ×1.5×1.3 = 150. Venusaur has 172 HP — survives at ~22 HP. Then Venusaur can't hurt Gholdengo. Gholdengo switch-in: takes the Shadow Ball at ~82% of 194 ≈ 160, leaving ~34 HP. Then I'm faster and can attack. But at 34 HP, if they survive my hit, their next Shadow Ball KOs me. My hit does ~101 to their 146 — they'd survive at ~45. Then they KO me. Bad. Wait — but they attack the turn I switch in. So Gholdengo comes in at ~34 HP. Next turn I attack (they go to ~45 HP), they attack and KO me. Then I bring in something else. Hmm. Alternatively Venusaur comes in at ~22 HP, then Venusaur is basically dead. Hmm, actually wait: does the opponent attack the switch-in? Yes, they used Shadow Ball last turn and will use it again. Let me reconsider: Gholdengo switch-in takes 160 → 34/194. Then turn 8: my Gholdengo (faster) Shadow Ball → they survive ~45/174. Their Shadow Ball KOs me. I lose Gholdengo but they're at 45 HP (26%). Then I bring in... Kingambit with scarf, sucker punch? Or Garchomp EQ. Actually, alternatively: Venusaur comes in at 22 HP. Venusaur is faster under sun (chlorophyll)? Sunny day is up! Venusaur with chlorophyll doubles speed. But Venusaur

ShadowballMy Gholdengo is faster and has a +2 Special Attack boost, making Shadow Ball a guaranteed one-hit knockout against the opposing Gholdengo.
Reasoning trace (49 words)
The deciding factor is speed and a likely knockout. My Gholdengo is +2 Special Attack and faster than the opponent's Gholdengo (106 vs 84 base speed, and I have the actual stat 106 vs their base 84). Shadow Ball from a +2 Gholdengo will easily OHKO the opposing Gholdengo.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedMakeitrainI'm faster than their Gholdengo and Make It Rain (120 BP, neutral) is my strongest way to pressure their 84% HP before their +2 Shadow Ball can KO me; if I do go down, Venusaur cleans up in the sun.

Opponent Gholdengo at +2 spa with Life Orb, will KO me with Shadow Ball (super effective against Steel/Ghost? Shadow Ball is Ghost vs Steel/Ghost — Steel resists? Ghost hits Steel... Ghost is not very effective vs Steel? Actually Ghost is neutral vs Steel? Type chart: Ghost resisted by... Dark, Normal. Ghost vs Steel = neutral. So Shadow Ball is neutral. +2 Life Orb Shadow Ball from133 spa vs my 111 spd... likely kills from 100%. I'm +0. Make It Rain at 203 spa vs 91 spd — probably does ~50-60%. Not a KO. Speed: my spe 106 vs base 84 — I'm faster (actual stats given: 106 vs 84 assumed base... but opponent shows base stats not actual). I'm likely faster. Options: Switch to Venusaur? Shadow Ball would hit incoming. Or recover — but +2 Shadow Ball likely2HKO or KO. If it KO's me, recover is useless. If it doesn't, recover stalls. Consider: opponent at84% HP. My Make It Rain maybe 45-55%. Shadow Ball to me: +2 Life Orb Shadow Ball vs Gholdengo (111 SpD, 194 HP): roughly 133 base spa * 2 boost *... estimate damage: 194 HP, ~80 damage maybe? Let's compute: base power 80, same-ish special attack advantage. Typical +2 Life Orb Shadow Ball vs Gholdengo does well over 50%, likely ~75-90%. Could KO. Hmm. If it might KO, switching to Venusaur taking a Shadow Ball: Venusaur 172/187, Shadow Ball vs Venusaur (SpD 122) — resisted? Ghost vs Grass/Poison = neutral. Would do ~40%. Then Venusaur has chlorophyll sun, outspeeds, sleep powder? Venusaur already used sludge bomb... it has sleeppowder. Then Solar Beam in sun. That could work: put Gholdengo to sleep, then set up. But opponent could switch on expected sleep. Opponent's bench: incineroar (29%), palafin (48%), plus kingambit, garchomp, annihilape unseen. Hmm wait — "Not yet seen in battle (from team preview): kingambit, garchomp, annihilape" — but wait, these are also in my bench? My bench lists kingambit and garchomp. Odd — maybe shared team preview listing. Actually it says opponent's revealed bench: incineroar, palafin, and not yet seen: kingambit, garchomp, annihilape. Strange duplication, but maybe both teams have similar mons (mirror-ish?). Whatever. If I switch to Venusaur and opponent Nasty Plots again, Venusaur can sleep powder. Opponent at +2 already; another plot +4. Still, sleep handles it. If I stay in and Make It Rain, then if I survive Shadow Ball I'd need a second hit; recover might be needed. Safer: my Gholdengo is faster — use Shadow Ball or Make It Rain? Opponent at 84%. Make It Rain is stronger (120 vs 80). Steel vs Ghost: Steel resisted by... Steel not very effective vs Steel, Fire, Water, Electric. Ghost neutral. So Make It Rain neutral120 > Shadow Ball neutral 80. Use Make It Rain. But will I survive their +2 Shadow Ball? Speed: my spe stat 106, opponent base 84 — their actual spe unknown but likely lower. Assume I move first. If Make It Rain does ~55%, opponent at ~29%, then their Shadow Ball hits me. If it does 75%, I'm at 25% and can Recover next turn... but they'd KO next turn. Hmm, if I'm at 25%, opponent Shadow Ball next turn KOs unless I recover — recover brings to ~75%, then tank another? +2 Shadow Ball does ~75%, so recover + tank doesn't work forever. Alternative: two-shot. I hit Make It Rain (55%), they hit me (75% → I'm at 25%). Next turn I hit Make It Rain again — they're at ~-26% already dead? 29% - 55% = KO. So I KO them before their second hit, provided I survive the first. Risk: if their Shadow Ball does >100%, I die first (I move first, so I at least get hit after my attack — I'd deal damage, then die). If I die, my Gholdengo at 100% down, opponent at ~29%. Then Venusaur comes in with sun and chlorophyll, outspeeds, sludge bomb KOs at 29%? Sludge Bomb vs Gholdengo at 29%: yes, easily. So Make It Rain seems fine: either I KO them next turn, or I weaken them for Venusaur to clean. If I use Shadow Ball (weaker), opponent at84-40=44%, survives, hits me. Similar but less progress. Recover: I take75%, recover... stalling while +2 opponent keeps hitting — bad. Switch Venusaur: takes a big hit but sun chlorophyll + sleep powder control. Also risky if opponent Shadow Balls and Venusaur takes ~40%, fine. Then sleep powder. This gives control without risking Gholdengo. But if opponent just attacks, Venusaur at ~50%, sleeps them, then solarbeam KO. I think Make It Rain is best — I'm faster, guaranteed damage, likely2HKO before they can KO me, and if I fall, Venusaur cleans up. Actually, does Make It Rain lower my spa by1 stage? In gen 9, Make It Rain lowers user's SpA by 1. Yes. So after first Make It Rain I'm at -1, second hit much weaker. Then opponent at 29% might survive second hit? -1 Make It Rain from 203 spa vs 91 spd: first hit ~55%, second at -1 ~37%. 84% - 55% = 29%, second hit 37% would KO. So OK. But wait — if opponent survives and hits me with +2 Shadow Ball (~75%), I'm at 25%; next turn I hit Make It Rain at -1 for 37% vs their 29% → KO. Good. Unless their Shadow Ball one-shots me — then Venusaur revenge KOs with sludge bomb. Fine. Decision: Make It Rain.
MiMo V2.6 Flash switched toVenusaurOnly one legal action remains: sending in Venusaur. Gholdengo's +2 Shadow Ball threatens it, but Venusaur outspeeds and can threaten back with Sludge Bomb or put it to sleep.

MakeitrainGholdengo is faster than Venusaur and has a +2 Special Attack boost. Make It Rain will deal massive damage and likely secure a knockout.
Reasoning trace (48 words)
Opponent has Venusaur active in SunnyDay. My Gholdengo is +2 SpA. Venusaur is Grass/Poison, meaning it's neutral to Steel and Ghost. Gholdengo is faster than Venusaur (106 vs 80). Make It Rain at +2 SpA should deal massive damage, likely a knockout or near-knockout. Deciding factor: Likely knockout.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedSolarbeamVenusaur outspeeds Gholdengo thanks to Chlorophyll in the sun, and a sun-boosted STAB Solar Beam should knock out the 74% Gholdengo before its +2 Shadow Ball can move. Speed and the likely knockout decide this.

Venusaur with chlorophyll in sun is faster than Gholdengo. Mega Venusaur... wait, venusaurite — mega evolves, chlorophyll becomes thick fat? Actually Mega Venusaur ability is Thick Fat, losing chlorophyll. But speed: Mega Venusaur base 80 speed vs Gholdengo base 84. Hmm, but the state says ability chlorophyll and spe 100. If it mega evolves, speed drops. But terastallization not available; mega evolution presumably automatic? The item is venusaurite. In this format, mega likely happens automatically when sent out? The stats shown are pre-mega (spe 100, spa 167). Assume chlorophyll active in sun → Venusaur outspeeds. Gholdengo at +2 spa with Life Orb Shadow Ball would likely KO Venusaur (super effective vs Grass/Poison). Venusaur at 92%. Can Solar Beam KO Gholdengo at 74%? Sun-boosted Solar Beam 120 BP, STAB 1.5 → 180 effective. Gholdengo SpD 91 base, Venusaur spa 167. Rough calc: 167 spa, Solar Beam in sun (no charge, 120 BP ×1.5 STAB = 180). Damage ≈ (2*50/50+2)*180*167/91/... let's do: modifier = 2*50/50+2 = 4. 4*180 = 720. *167/91 = 1317. /50 = 26.3, +2 = 28.3. ×1.5 STAB = 42.5. ×2 sun = 85. ×0.85 life orb? Venusaur has venusaurite not life orb. So ~85% before random. Gholdengo at 74% → likely KO. But Gholdengo resists? Steel doesn't resist Grass. Neutral. So Solar Beam likely KOs. But if Venusaur doesn't KO, Shadow Ball +2 KO's Venusaur. Sleep Powder 75% acc guarantees survival if it hits and sleeps... but Gholdengo is Ghost, sleep works. If sleep misses, Venusaur dies. Solar Beam has 100 acc and likely KOs. Go solarbeam. Actually check: is Venusaur faster? Chlorophyll doubles speed in sun: 100 base → effective 200ish. But if mega evolution occurs, ability becomes Thick Fat and speed 80 base. The state shows chlorophyll still, so maybe mega not yet activated or mega happens on entry. Given stats show spe 100 and ability chlorophyll, treat as outspeeding. Solar beam.

MakeitrainGholdengo has a +2 Special Attack boost and Venusaur is weak to Steel. Make It Rain should be a guaranteed knockout.
MiMo V2.6 Flash usedSolarbeamVenusaur outspeeds Gholdengo (base 100 vs 84) and Solar Beam already dealt ~39% last turn, so another sun-boosted Solar Beam should knock out the 45% Gholdengo before its +2 Shadow Ball can connect.

Gholdengo at 45% with +2 SPA. It's faster? Venusaur speed 100 base, Gholdengo 84 base. Venusaur (100) faster than Gholdengo (84). Sunny day — is it still sunny? Weather: Sunnyday. Mega Venusaur... wait, Venusaurite — but stats show speed 100, chlorophyll ability still? It says ability chlorophyll, so not mega yet (tera not available, mega maybe automatic?). Anyway. Shadow Ball from +2 Gholdengo would likely knock out Venusaur. Venusaur at 92%. +2 Shadow Ball vs Venusaur... probably kills. Solar Beam in sun is instant, hits Gholdengo super effective (Steel/Ghost — Steel resists? Ghost doesn't resist grass. Steel neutral to grass... actually Steel is neutral to Grass. Grass vs Steel: neutral. Grass vs Ghost: neutral. So solar beam is neutral. But with life orb Venusaur's solar beam at 120 BP... Gholdengo at 45% HP, 87 base HP... SPA 167. Actually Solar Beam was already used and did 45% (from 100→45 was... it went from 84ish to 45? Turn 9: Gholdengo was at 84/100 after life orb turn 7? Then solar beam took it to 45 — so ~39%. Now at 45%, another solar beam kills (need45, did 39). But is Venusaur faster? Speed 100 vs Gholdengo 84 base. Venusaur faster, kills with solar beam. But wait — Gholdengo at +2 SPA would kill Venusaur if it moves first. Venusaur faster though. Unless Gholdengo has scarf — no, life orb. So Solar Beam should KO. Accuracy 100. Go solarbeam.
