>>18917550Talonflame has poor offenses, no moves outside of Aerial Ace and Fly via TM until that level 44 Acrobatics unless you want to waste a heart scale to relearn Flare Blitz or stay with fucking Flame Charge forever, not to mention that Brave Bird is learned at 64, unless you waste yet another heart scale for it, the bird is just fast
Best bird is still Staraptor, gets Wing Attack and Aerial Ace early, Takedown for another STAB and instantly learns Close Combat after evolving, which inmediately solves your "getting walled by rocks and steels" problem, not to mention it learns Brave Bird at 49 which is acceptable, Intimidate is also hella better than Flame Body (assuming you dont have a hidden abilities and this is all for ingame)
It is better than Unfezant though, for me the regional bird of Unova was Stoutland
