Definitely a good decision. Can single handedly wreck Grass, Fighting and Bug teams, will often sweep anything that doesn't resist it. It won't be missed by anyone but the scrubs that use it.

>It wasn't Banned because it was OP, rather because it warped the Metagame to an extent that it made it unhealthy.
The main reason smogon is shit these days nicely summed up.

has to invest in speed instead of bulk
unreliable high power STABs and fuck all for move pool aside from HP and Roost
can only boost speed so it can't just OHKO entire teams after one turn of setup

What's wrong with this? Is an unhealthy metagame a good thing? Are you retarded?

But this is monotype, a "for fun" meta that nobody actually plays seriously anyway, so yeah. Who cares. If banning Talonflame makes it more fun then go for it.
