Is Adamant a good nature for Talonflame?

Question

He has the nature adamant and I am running the set
Sword dance
Roost
Brave bird
Flare blitz

Most people been saying to run jolly with it

So could I just make the EV spread different to make it as if it had jolly?

It is not necessary but, I'd appreciate it if you also listed a EV spread in your answer, thanks!

base 80 is quite avarege for competitive so Adamant nature boosting that attack stat would be more beneficial as its speed it already quite high.

Answer 1

Don't run jolly on it. His speed is already OP and he has gale wings, to give +1 priority to ANY flying type move. He doesn't need an improvement in speed and his attack is so-so, so getting the boost is good. With your set, here is what it should be completed:

Talonflame @ Life Orb
Gale Wings
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
Flare Blitz
Brave Bird
Roost
Swords Dance

Answer 2

With gale wings and that speed, jolly isn't to great, so I would prefer adamant.
Evs: 252 atk; 252 spd; 4 def

Hope I Helped!!!
