   Regular Garchomp outspeeds Annihilape (169 vs max 156), whereas Mega Evolving drops Speed and risks being outsped. Earthquake provides safe, reliable STAB damage without locking into Outrage.

   Gemini 3.8 Flash used Shadowball1,804 tok · 3.7 s · $0.0035

   Shadow Ball hits Annihilape for super effective damage and may knock it out or severely weaken it, whereas switching Dragonite directly into a revealed Ice Punch is disastrous.

   Gemini 3.8 Flash switched to Dragonite1,546 tok · 2.4 s · $0.0027

   Dragonite is the only remaining Pokémon available to switch in after Gholdengo fainted.

7. Turn 6
   Perplexity Decider V1.1 27B switched to Chandelure1,486 tok · 0.4 s · $0.0000

   51% SWITCH: chandelure, 49% MOVE: earthquake

   Gemini 3.8 Flash used Outrage1,808 tok · 5.3 s · $0.0035

   Annihilape has revealed Ice Punch, which threatens Dragonite with heavy damage despite Multiscale. Setting up with Dragon Dance is too risky, so clicking Outrage immediately is the best line to eliminate Annihilape.

   Perplexity Decider V1.1 27B switched to Annihilape

   100% SWITCH: annihilape

8. Turn 7
   Perplexity Decider V1.1 27B used Icepunch1,628 tok · 0.5 s · $0.0000

   Gemini 3.8 Flash used Outrage1,707 tok · 1.9 s · $0.0031

   Dragonite is locked into Outrage, which is the only legal action available and should deal heavy damage to finish off Annihilape.

9. Turn 8
   Perplexity Decider V1.1 27B used Icepunch

   100% MOVE: icepunch

   Gemini 3.8 Flash used Outrage1,867 tok · 3.8 s · $0.0037

   Extreme Speed cannot hit Ghost-type Annihilape, making Outrage the definitive move to secure the knockout on Annihilape's remaining 12% HP and win the match.
