Guide
When running this build, you'll want to initially farm up to Level 4/5 in the Jungle, before going to the top/bottom lane to assist whatever duo is facing the heaviest pressure from the enemy team. After that, return to the Jungle, farm up to Level 6/7, and repeat with assisting your allies.
However, after that, you'll want to start pushing and scoring goals, while also KOing enemies and wild pokemon to make sure your level can keep up with the pace of the match.
DON'T try to solo with this build. It's a very bad idea, and Talonflame is incredibly squishy. Instead, use this build to help your team pressure the enemy, or reduce pressure on your team, by KOing enemies to assist your allies when they need it.
Brave Bird is good for sniping from a distance, Aerial Ace is good for finishing off already low HP enemies. If you're in a bad situation, using Acrobatics / Brave Bird + Eject Button can generally get you out of sticky situations. However, if you're being attacked by several enemies at once, with no back up, expect to be KOed, as you'll like be cancelled out of your moves, and your eject button is likely to be unusable.
Items are primarily there to increase survivability and assasination capabilities.
