Sorry, trainer. I'm just trying to win with one of my favorites.
Fletchling earned a spot in my heart from day one with his adorable looks and intriguing firepower. Talonflame's reveal later in the year sealed the deal. I've been a fan of all the early-game birds and this was one of the best. I was going to use him happily, and if he was relegated to lower tiers I'd use him there. He was great on my playthrough, and I was really excited to learn he had an interesting ability that could have some competitive merit.
I'm not gonna turn my back on a Pokemon I'm genuinely fond of like a butthurt hipster just because he's popular and powerful. My jimmies remain unrustled and Talonflame remains my mon of choice.
