・ Will-O-Wisp ・ Tailwind ・ Taunt |
This Talonflame build wants to immediately set up Tailwind for its teammates so that they can quickly go on the offense. Gale Wings gives Priority to both Tailwind and Brave Bird.
Non-Prankster Taunt lets Talonflame use Taunt even in Psychic Terrain or against Farigiraf.
Wide Lens is Talonflame's Held Item of choice for more accurate Will-O-Wisps.
Flare Blitz | Flare Blitz is another STAB option for Talonflame that lets it hit Fire-weak Pokemon. |

Talonflame is great for offensive teams because of its ability to set up Tailwind for its team. Gale Wings gives it added Priority, making it a very strong choice at the start of a match.
Use Talonflame's Speed to your advantage by making sure it gets to attack enough times before it gets KOd.
Fast Offensive Pokemon benefit greatly from Talonflame's Tailwind support which allows them to be even faster. This is especially useful for avoiding Speed ties. Talonflame can also use Priority Brave Bird if it does not take damage the previous turn, which is especially useful for taking out threats.
Because Talonflame's defenses are frail, defensive switch-ins are good to have.
Tailwind Setter | Physical Attacker |
---|---|
Talonflame | Great Tusk |
Physical Attacker | Special Attacker |
Dondozo | Tatsugiri |
Great Tusk benefits greatly from Talonflame's support options and is a powerful Physical Attacker once Tailwind is set up.
With a strong front end consisting of Talonflame and Great Tusk, having Dondozo and Tatsugiri in the back as a win condition may prove valuable as both can be an unbeatable pairing in the latter parts of a match.
Talonflame can be outsped by other Pokemon in Tailwind if Talonflame is denied Tailwind itself. Any super-effective Move will knock it out unless it is carrying Focus Sash.
