Talonflame Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Adamant or Jolly

Nature Stat Changes
Adamant ↑ Attack, ↓ SpAtk
Jolly ↑ Speed, ↓ SpAtk

Since Talonflame is a Fast Physical Attacker, its best Nature is either Adamant or Jolly to boost its Attack or Speed further, while reducing its Special Attack stat.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Lonely ↑ Attack, ↓ Defense
Naughty ↑ Attack, ↓ SpDef

You can also give Talonflame either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Talonflame any of the above two natures will increase the damage it receives, making it less ideal for Competitive Play and harder post-game content.

Use Mints to Change Natures

Mint Usage

If your Talonflame has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.
Mints Locations and How to Change Nature

Best Talonflame Moveset for the Story

Move Type Cooldown
Flame Wheel Pokemon Fire Type Icon 6
Brave Bird Pokemon Flying Type Icon 10
Aerial Ace Pokemon Flying Type Icon 9
Flare Blitz Pokemon Fire Type Icon 8

We recommend the moves Flame Wheel, Aerial Ace, Flare Blitz, and Brave Bird when using Talonflame during the main story.
