    Shadow Talonflame PvE Analysis

    Recommended moves

    • Fire Attacker:FireFire SpinFlyingFly
    • Flying Attacker:FlyingPeckFlyingFly

    Shadow Talonflame is barely an improvement over Shadow Fletchinder in terms of stats, and this popular Pokémon remains useless in PvE battles. Yes, the Shadow boost does hardly anything.

    Fire/Flying? Try Charizard, Moltres, or Ho-Oh.

    Shadow Talonflame PvP Analysis

    Recommended moves

    • Great League:FireIncinerateFireFlame ChargeFlyingFly
    • Ultra League:FireIncinerateFlyingFlyFlyingBrave Bird

    🔵 Great League

    Shadow Talonflame is a sidegrade to regular Talonflame in the shielded scenarios of Great League, as in all moveset combos (Fly/Brave Bird, Flame Charge/Brave Bird & Fly/Flame Charge), the regular variant performs a bit better thanks to higher bulk.

    Overall, the two variants exchange a few wins and losses. For instance, in the (1-1), regular Talonflame can beat Shadow Drapion and Shadow Primeape while Shadow Talonflame gets Cradily and regular Primeape.

    However, in the (0-0), Shadow Talonflame takes out the mighty Shadow Drapion, which regular Talonflame can’t.

    Apples and oranges, Trainer.

    🟡 Ultra League

    It’s the same story in the Ultra League as well as the Shadow and regular forms of Talonflame are sidegrades of each other. In the (1-1) scenario, regular Talonflame is better, grabbing victories over Pangoro, Samurott, and Ampharos, something Shadow Talonflame can’t.

    However, Shadow Talonflame turns the tables in the (0-0) scenario, beating Cobalion and Malamar, which regular Talonflame is unable to achieve.

    🟣 Master League

    Shadow Talonflame can’t handle the heat of the Master League. A few wins don’t justify its usage over a Legendary like Ho-Oh.

    💎The best PvP moves for Shadow Talonflame are Incinerate, Fly and Brave Bird.
