How many times can I use set moves before Magic Room expires (there's one turn for switching) ?

Here’s the idea,Gothitelle usesMagic Room,then I switch to a set-up sweeper,Haxorus for example,it’s holding a Choice Band,but it’ll be negated by Magic Room,after the switch to Haxorus,how many times will I be able to use Dragon Dance without getting stuck in it when Magic Room expires.

" Magic Room suppresses the effect ofall items held by the Pokémon on thefield.This effect lasts for fiveturns.Similar to Trick Room andWonder Room, using Magic Room while itis already in effect will end itimmediately. Magic Room will prohibitthe use of items through Natural Giftand Fling; however, Magic Room willnot prevent the exchange of itemsthrough Trick. Magic Room will notsuppress the effect of Berries if theywere consumed through Pluck or BugBite. Items return to their normalfunction when Magic Room ends, asthough the move was never in effect.APokémon locked to a move by the effectof Choice Band, Choice Specs, orChoice Scarf will remain locked tothat move after Magic Room ends, butwill be able to switch moves freelyduring it.Magic Room is in the -7priority bracket and therefore willalways go last, except against slowerfoes also using an attack in the same bracket.

So to Clarify, You have 5 turns.Switch, you now have 4 turns.Dragon dance, 3 leftDragon dance, 2 leftDragon dance, 1 leftAnd now, you have to use whatever move you want to use during the rest of the battle, so I’m going to take a guess on what you’re going to let your last turn look like.Dragon claw, Magic Room ends, you’re locked into Dragon Claw.

So you would have the oppurtunity to set up 3 Dragon dances.

i believe it would be three.
