Which is Better for Scarlet/Violet? Skeledirge, Talonflame, or Scovillan?

Question

Hey, you know that Skeledirge is the best starter, Talonflame is the best physical attacker of the Fire types, and Scovillian is the best Grass/Fire type! Which Fire-type should you choose on your team?

Comments

Skeledirge is better than both for playthroughs, though I don't wish to encourage your recent behaviour where you mention the Pokemon on every thread about SV.

I agree too! Skeledirge is better than Talonflame and Scovillan! Also, Quaxly users get Scovillan! Both Skeledirge and Scovillan rule! Also, please give me a real answer not a comment please! It will be very helpful!

If you agree that Skeledirge is better than Talanflame and Scovillian, why are you asking this question?

*Ahem*. I like Scovillain, but he's the best fire-grass type because he's the ONLY fully evolved fire-grass type. Also, I agree that Skeledirge is best.

Answer 1

Choosing a Pokémon for your team depends on your team.

Overall, Skeledirge will carry you through the game and has competitive merit. If you want to avoid duplicate types, though, you're missing out on the very appealing Annihilape and Houndstone.

Use him if you want an easy game, though or if you don't have a preference for your team layout.
