Terastal Phenomenon
In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (Generation 9), each Pokémon in Paldea has a Tera Type. A Pokémon's Tera Type is inactive until the Pokémon Terastallizes, at which time the Pokémon's type will change to its Tera Type.
There are 18 types, meaning there are countless combinations of Pokémon and Tera Types. Terastallizing a Pokémon allows you to enhance your battle strategies by increasing the power of any moves that have the same type as your Pokémon’s Tera Type or by changing your Pokémon’s weaknesses.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
Electric moves are bad against Ground.
Water moves are bad against Water/Dragon/Grass.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Talonflame is: Steel, Fighting or Ground
Considering the amount of shared resistances against typings this Pokemon is usually weak to, we also recommend: Ground, Water, Dragon or Grass
We strongly suggest: Ground, Water, Dragon or Grass
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Fire or Flying ) could also prove beneficial.
Select a Tera-type:

Talonflame is popular Physical Sweeper in single battles. It is meant to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. Focus Sash helps protect Talonflame from being one-shotted and allowing it to atleast use a crucial move when brought out (usually Flame Charge to boost Talonflame for the following turns). Choice Band will increase the damage of Talonflame's physical moves by 1.5x at the cost of locking you into the first move you pick. With Gale Wings, if Talonflame is at full hp its flying-type moves have their priority increased by 1. U-turn was added to provide additional threat coverage.Facade's damage doubles when the user has a status affliction.
♦ Flame Charge is a physical STAB-boosted 50-base power Fire-type move (100% chance to raise your Talonflame's speed by 1 stage).

♦ Acrobatics is a physical STAB-boosted 55-base power Flying-type move (power doubles if your Talonflame has no held item).
