S0L1D G0LD sends in Really-Tiss't Liszt the Rhyperior, pitting pure stats against the equally beefy Glastrier. And then...both Pokemon just trade hits. Yeah. And the damage dealt to each other was about the same, though Glastrier had less HP to start with.

Ah, so this was what I had forgotten. Also, it is my field that should possess Stealth Rock; they appear to have mysteriously swapped owners during the previous round.

"Artillery, prepare for my command!"

Rock Wrecker + Stealth Rock - Rock Tomb - Rock Slide
If Glastrier is under the effects of a successful p/e move when you would act, start action chain Stealth Rock - Rock Wrecker - Rock Tomb .
If Glastrier is Enduring when you would act and Glastrier has 1 HP, use Toxic that action and push back.

And we're back! This round went by pretty quickly, with Rhyperior OHKOing Glastrier while setting up stealth rocks, but leaving itself sluggish and vulnerable to P2X7's replacement. Let's see how P2X7 respond, and how both players play by gen 8 rules in gen 9!

[Check at the start of the step] IF Rhyperior is set to use a D/E Move, AND it is faster than you, use Solar Beam and push back.

Someone should start keeping a tally on how many times the battlers misremember gen 8 mechanics (meaning excluding me, of course. that would get embarrassing.). Anyway, P2X7 forgets about Endure existing which allows Gold to preserve Rhyperior for one more round and scoring a bit of damage and a speed debuff on Jumbao. Although Rhyperior is basically completely out of HP and EN at this point, its prolonged survival does net Gold second order when he sends in his next mon. Rhyperior is also now faster than Jumbao, funnily enough.
