   Kimi K3 brought Garchomp,gholdengo,dragonite2,064 tok · 4.3 s · $0.0026

   Mirror match vs scripted bot. Plan: lead Garchomp to set Stealth Rock and trade with Focus Sash; Gholdengo blocks spin/defog and breaks; Dragonite cleans with Extreme Speed behind Multiscale. Watch for their Garchomp lead—speed tie at 169.

   Reasoning trace (10 words)

   Mirror match. Lead Garchomp for rocks, bring Gholdengo and Dragonite.

2. Turn 1
   Chimps at the Zoo used Willowisp
   Kimi K3 used Stealthrock2,112 tok · 2.5 s · $0.0038

   Rotom-Wash lead; Levitate blocks Earthquake. Set Stealth Rock now—Garchomp outspeeds and has Sash. Then Scale Shot/Stone Edge to chip Rotom. Gholdengo blocks hazard removal later; Dragonite cleans with ESpeed.

   Reasoning trace (7 words)

   Rotom-Wash levitates, so EQ immune. Set rocks.

3. Turn 2
   Chimps at the Zoo switched to Skeledirge
   Kimi K3 switched to Dragonite2,411 tok · 9.0 s · $0.0098

   Garchomp burned, Sash broken by burn damage—it's now fodder. Rotom-Wash has Levitate (EQ immune) and Will-O-Wisp. Plan: pivot to Dragonite (Multiscale intact, resists Hydro Pump), then Dragon Dance sweep. Keep Garchomp as death fodder later. Gholdengo blocks hazard removal.

   Reasoning trace (89 words)

   Burned Garchomp, Levitate blocks EQ. Stone Edge is neutral on Rotom-Wash, halved by burn. Scale Shot resisted. Maybe switch to Gholdengo? Rotom's Hydro Pump hurts. Gholdengo resists Water? Steel resists... no, Steel neutral to Water now. Actually Steel resists Water? No. Gholdengo takes Hydro Pump neutrally-ish. Better: stay and Stone Edge chip, Sash already broken by burn? Sash needs full HP—burn broke it. Garchomp is burned, weak. Just Stone Edge for chip, or switch Dragonite (Multiscale intact, resists Water). Dragonite resists Hydro Pump and can set up. Switch Dragonite.

4. Turn 3
   Chimps at the Zoo switched to Gholdengo
   Kimi K3 used Dragondance2,632 tok · 8.9 s · $0.0103

   Skeledirge at 75%, I outspeed and resist Fire; Multiscale intact. Dragon Dance now—Torch Song barely dents me. Then Earthquake KOs Skeledirge; +1 Speed outspeeds their whole team for an ESpeed/EQ sweep. Watch for Unaware (ignores boosts) and a possible Kingambit in back—keep ESpeed for it. Gholdengo blocks hazard removal; Garchomp is fodder.

   Reasoning trace (72 words)

   Skeledirge likely has Torch Song; Dragonite resists Fire, Multiscale intact. Dragon Dance then sweep. But Unaware ignores boosts—still, EQ is super effective and we outspeed. DD once is fine; even Unaware, +1 speed lets us hit first with EQ. Just EQ now? EQ at 186 Atk vs 75% Skeledirge likely KOs. But they might switch to Rotom (Levitate). DD is safer for sweep. Torch Song does little vs Multiscale resist. Go DD.

5. Turn 4
   Chimps at the Zoo used Shadowball
   Kimi K3 used Earthquake2,687 tok · 7.5 s · $0.0096

   Dragonite at +1 Atk/Spe, Multiscale intact, outspeeds everything. Earthquake is super effective on Gholdengo—likely KO or heavy chunk. If it survives and Make It Rains, Multiscale halves it. Then ESpeed/EQ cleans Rotom-Wash and Skeledirge (both weak to EQ except Rotom's Levitate—use ESpeed/Ice Spinner on Rotom). Garchomp is burn fodder; my Gholdengo saved for Kingambit check if needed.

   Reasoning trace (15 words)

   Dragonite +1 Atk, EQ super effective vs Gholdengo. EQ likely KOs or near-KOs. Just EQ.

   Chimps at the Zoo switched to Rotom
6. Turn 5
   Chimps at the Zoo used Willowisp
   Kimi K3 used Extremespeed2,890 tok · 7.8 s · $0.0111

   Rotom-Wash has Levitate—EQ immune. At +1, ExtremeSpeed does ~50% to its 87% HP; two ESpeeds KO, and priority ignores its moves. Multiscale halves any Hydro Pump. Then Skeledirge at 75% dies to EQ (I outspeed at +1). Garchomp is burn fodder; Gholdengo healthy in back.

   Reasoning trace (61 words)

   Rotom has Levitate—EQ immune. Use Ice Spinner or ESpeed. At +1, Ice Spinner 80 BP vs Rotom 87%... ESpeed neutral 80. Ice Spinner not very effective. ESpeed likely better. Actually Hydro Pump threat: Multiscale halves. ESpeed at +1: 80*1.5*1.5... Atk 186*1.5=279, vs Def ~144: damage ~ (22*80*279/144)/50+2 ≈ 70. Rotom HP ~157*0.87=137. Two ESpeeds KO. Ice Spinner NVE does less. ESpeed.

   Kimi K3 used Extremespeed2,900 tok · 4.1 s · $0.0103

   Rotom at 59%, Levitate blocks EQ. ESpeed did 33%; two more ESpeeds KO through Leftovers. Multiscale intact halves any Hydro Pump; Lum already used. After Rotom dies, Skeledirge at 75% dies to +1 EQ (I outspeed). Garchomp burn fodder, Gholdengo healthy in back.

   Reasoning trace (34 words)

   ESpeed again: 59% - ~33% = ~26%, then Leftovers. Hmm, ESpeed did 87→54 = 33%. Another ESpeed leaves ~26%+leftovers. Then a third ESpeed KOs. But Rotom may Hydro Pump; Multiscale halves. Just spam ESpeed.

8. Turn 7
   Chimps at the Zoo switched to Rotom
   Kimi K3 used Earthquake2,982 tok · 4.3 s · $0.0066

   Skeledirge at 50%, I outspeed. +1 EQ should KO; even if Unaware ignores the boost, super-effective EQ vs 50% likely KOs or leaves it in ESpeed... no, ESpeed is immune (Ghost). If it survives, it may Torch Song; Multiscale is broken (144/166) but I still live and finish next turn. Then Rotom at 26% dies to ESpeed. Gholdengo/Garchomp healthy in back.

   Reasoning trace (25 words)

   Skeledirge at 50%, EQ at +1 KOs. If Unaware, ignores my +1 but EQ still super effective—50% HP, likely still KO or close. Just EQ.

9. Turn 8
   Chimps at the Zoo used Willowisp
   Kimi K3 used Extremespeed2,980 tok · 7.0 s · $0.0060

   Rotom at 20%: Extreme Speed KOs through Leftovers. Then Skeledirge at 50% comes in; I outspeed at +1 and EQ (super effective) should KO or nearly. If it survives and Torch Songs, I finish next turn. Gholdengo and burned Garchomp remain healthy backup.

   Reasoning trace (14 words)

   Rotom at 20%, ESpeed KOs. Then Skeledirge at 50% comes in; I outspeed, EQ.

    Kimi K3 used Earthquake3,047 tok · 2.5 s · $0.0060

    Skeledirge at 50%, I outspeed at +1. +1 EQ (super effective) should KO; even Unaware EQ likely KOs at 50%. If it survives and Torch Songs, I finish next turn. Gholdengo and burned Garchomp remain as backup.

    Reasoning trace (8 words)

    EQ at +1 vs 50% Skeledirge should KO.

    Chimps at the Zoo used Torchsong
    Kimi K3 used Earthquake3,067 tok · 3.3 s · $0.0057

    Skeledirge at 5%, I outspeed at +1; EQ KOs and wins the game (their last Pokémon). No reason to do anything else.

    Reasoning trace (7 words)

    Skeledirge at 5%, I outspeed, EQ KOs.
