Abstract: In this paper, we provide a bound for the generalized Hofer energy of punctured $J$-holomorphic curves in almost complex manifolds with asymptotically cylindrical ends. As an application, we prove a version of Gromov's Monotonicity Theorem with multiplicity. Namely, for a closed symplectic manifold $(M,omega)$ with a compatible almost complex structure $J$ and a ball $B$ in $M,$ there exists a constant $hbar>0,$ such that any $J$-holomorphic curve $ildeu$ passing through the center of $B$ for $k$ times (counted with multiplicity) with boundary mapped to $partialB$ has symplectic area $in{t}_{ilde{u}^{-1}(B)}ilde{u}^{*}omega>khbar,$ where the constant $hbar$ depends only on $(M,omega,J)$ and the radius of $B.$ As a consequence, the number of times that any closed $J$-holomorphic curve in $M$ passes through a point is bounded by a constant depending only on $(M,omega,J)$ and the symplectic area of $ildeu$. Here $J$ is any $omega-$compatible smooth almost complex structure on $M$. In particular, we do not require $J$ to be integrable.
