All right then. Moai sends out first, Hartwig sends out and orders, then Moai orders. Everything else…shall be in fate’s hands.

Sometimes fate is also known as random.org I guess.
 
Come on, Bolt! He may be faster, but keep up the pressure nonetheless!

If he hits himself in confusion on A3, then use Rock Climb.

For the love of god, Hartwig, state which pokemon you’re sending out so we don’t have to guess!

This round strts off with Hartwig setting himself up, taunting and badly poisoning Bolt, while Bolt hits with some hard shots! At the end of the round, Moski seems to be overwhelmed by the attacks and is lightly confused, while toxic damage is starting to set in on Bolt. Will setting up finally prove to be a viable strategy in ASB, or will flat damaging reign supreme once again?

How did Bolt's stats suddenly switch to 3/4/4/4? Something is wrong! And Moskito should get STAB on U-turn.

Once that is fixed, my moves.
That was a big mistake; I apologize, Moskito.
Ice Shard + Icicle Spear, cool down, Ice Shard + Icicle Spear
 
Moskito does have stab on u-turn (that's what the +3 is). However, I did screw up on bolt's stats, must've copied dragonite's onto there by accident. Anyhow, fixed now.
 
Well, that combination should give you negative priority, allowing Bolt to finish this quickly!
