GLM 5.3 brought Garchomp,dragonite,gholdengo1,962 tok · 1.9 s · $0.0031
Mirror match. Bring Garchomp (Yache, fast, EQ/SD), Dragonite (Multiscale DD + Espeed), Gholdengo (Good as Gold blocks status, Nasty Plot). Expect opponent to bring similar core; Gholdengo walls Clefable's status and Rotom can't touch it with status. Lead Garchomp for speed and power.

GLM 5.3 used Earthquake2,106 tok · 6.0 s · $0.0020
Mirror Garchomp lead; speed tie possible (both up to 169). Plan: EQ now; if they SD, they threaten sweep—watch for that. Yache berry mine. Keep Dragonite (Multiscale) as DD win condition; Gholdengo walls status users. If opposing Garchomp boosts, switch Dragonite to take EQ and retaliate with Espeed/EQ.

Mirror Garchomp. If speed tie, EQ vs EQ: roughskin doesn't matter. Dragon Claw is safe 2HKO-ish. Opponent might SD. Best: earthquake—likely KO in 2. If they SD, they outspeed risk. I'll just earthquake.

Clefable at 10% after crit EQ; finish with EQ. Opponent's third pick unknown—likely Garchomp mirror remains. Keep Dragonite healthy as DD wincon; Gholdengo walls status. Watch opposing Garchomp SD.

GLM 5.3 used Earthquake2,385 tok · 3.1 s · $0.0007
Gholdengo in, my Garchomp faster. EQ is super effective but they may Recover/Nasty Plot. Their Garchomp (100%) remains as endgame threat—my Dragonite with Multiscale + DD is wincon vs it. Plan: EQ the Gholdengo now; if it stays healthy via Recover, switch to my Gholdengo mirror (Good as Gold walls nothing relevant but can Recover stall). Keep Dragonite untouched for opposing Garchomp.
Turn 4
Chimps at the Zoo used Dragonclaw
GLM 5.3 used Earthquake2,562 tok · 2.0 s · $0.0013
Opposing Garchomp at 43%: my EQ did ~57% last time, so EQ should KO it. Then their Gholdengo (100%) remains; my Dragonite (Multiscale, untouched) is the wincon—Gholdengo can't touch Dragonite much except Shadow Ball/Make It Rain neutral. After this KO, bring Dragonite on Gholdengo, DD up, sweep with EQ/Espeed. Keep Gholdengo in reserve.

Opposing Garchomp at 43%. EQ from my 182 Atk Garchomp: 100 BP EQ vs Dragon/Ground neutral, does ~57%+ already happened once. EQ likely KOs from 43%? Earlier EQ did 57%. So EQ should KO. Use EQ.

Turn 5
Chimps at the Zoo used Recover
GLM 5.3 switched to Dragonite2,598 tok · 4.0 s · $0.0010
Opponent down to Gholdengo (100%) only; I have Garchomp at 18%, Dragonite and Gholdengo full. Dragonite is the wincon: bring it in, Dragon Dance, then EQ (SE on Gholdengo) + Espeed. Gholdengo's Shadow Ball/Make It Rain are neutral on Multiscale Dragonite—safe to set up. My Garchomp too weak to finish Gholdengo through Recover.
Reasoning trace (27 words)
```
Garchomp at 18%, Gholdengo full. EQ does ~57%? Actually EQ vs Gholdengo super effective. Better: switch to Dragonite, DD wincon. Gholdengo can't hurt Dragonite much. Switch Dragonite.
```

GLM 5.3 used Earthquake2,723 tok · 2.6 s · $0.0010
Opponent has only Gholdengo left (full HP, Recover revealed). My Dragonite is untouched with Multiscale—Gholdengo's Shadow Ball/Make It Rain are neutral and halved. EQ is super effective and should outdamage Recover. Just EQ every turn; if it heals, keep attacking. My Garchomp (18%) and Gholdengo stay in reserve.
Reasoning trace (54 words)
```
Opponent only has Gholdengo. Dragonite: EQ SE. Gholdengo may Recover stall; EQ ~100 power SE vs 115 Def... Gholdengo HP ~194, EQ damage roughly 60-70%? With Multiscale, safe. Just EQ repeatedly; if it Recovers, we outpace? Recover heals 50%, EQ does ~60%+ — fine. DD first also fine but EQ directly better. Go EQ.

GLM 5.3 used Earthquake2,717 tok · 1.3 s · $0.0006
Opponent down to Gholdengo at 25% with -2 SpA; I have Dragonite at 69% plus full Gholdengo and weak Garchomp. EQ is SE and should KO from 25% (did ~81% last time). Just EQ to finish it.
