>>50856058Talonflame has PRIORITY moron. It also had versatility due to having a better type, being able to run defensive sets like it often did. 120bp priority is absolutely insane, even on a Pokemon with only 81 attack.
Talonflame is also still NU. It has only 4 less speed than Aerodactyl, so if fast Brave Birds were so OP Talonflame would surely still be high tier. Brave Bird on Aerodactyl would be perfectly fine. There are faster Pokemon that hit harder that are balanced. Zeraora, Dragapult, Barraskewda, and Tapu Koko are all faster and shit on Aerodactyl's damage output.
