Reminder that the structure of a pokemon battle is like an 1800s gun duel. For example, Alakazam uses thunder punch, it hits the opposing pokemon (also notice how it has a 100% chance of hitting and the speed stat does not change the opposing pokemon's ability to evade like it would only if battles happened the way most think they happen), and then the opposing pokemon uses its own move. That is 1 turn. Pokemon move very little outside of going to attack the opponent with contact moves. If this was not the case pokemon would just dodge most attacks at the same rate depending on how good they are at dodging, there's no good reason fire punch or bite is a 100% accuracy move somehow impossible to dodge. Under the model that a battle is not like a pistol duel, a high speed stat should also allow a mon to attack multiple times, but this is not the case. In reality the speed stat allows instead the faster pokemon to simply make their move before the slower pokemon does.
If you are unable to agree your brain has been poisoned by the anime which has instilled and cemented into you mere headcanon on how game battles actually work. Remember that the anime (which is no doubt where people get their idea of battles from) is NOT accurate to the actual lore and this has been especially obvious since PLA's shrinking which the anime obviously differs with.
