That's assuming azumarill didn't just waterfall, which kills outright if you taunt and even if you burn an aqua jet OR waterfall will take you out next turn as brave bird won't KO even after paying 50% hp for drum. All of this even assumes it's still the early game and talonflame didn't get damn near killed by stealth rocks, anyway, in which case aqua jet KOs on its own.
