(Bulky) Talonflame Leftovers
Ability: Gale Wings
EV's: 128 ATK, 128 HP, 127 DEF, 127 SPD
Nature: Adamant

Moves (in order of use):
Will-O-Wisp
Bulk Up
Brave Bird
Roost

Have you ever heard of a bulky Talonflame? No? Well, that's the point; no one does. First, use Will-O-Wisp to take down health while you are using Bulk-Up until you have max defense and attack. If you run low on health, use priority (due to Gale Wings) Roost. Once you have built up your stats, use priority Brave Bird, dealing massive damage. Then heal with roost. Once you have the set-up on Talonflame, you can keep sweeping and healing, hopefully taking out threats. If used right, Talonflame can easily sweep a whole team. This strategy may not work if Talonflame gets nearly OHKOed. Hopefully, leftovers can help with this.​

I myself would recommend having more than one Pokemon. Maybe implement the 5 other Pokemon you have pictures of at the top. I have never really rated a team before so would appreciate some feedback on my rate and I am not the most experienced so can anyone back me up on this?
 
I'm just going to go ahead and say that the one mon you do have on your team is not running a good set in comparison to the standard bulky tflame (which everyone has heard of btw). You are going to want to change the set to one more along the lines of full investment in HP and full SpD so special attacks do not wear you down as much when boosting and you don't have the redundant spread you have now. Most of the time it is better to post a full team rather than adding to it bit by bit.
 
This team looks really weak to Ttar, Tyrantrum, Rhyperior, hell any rock type. Also I can see you having trouble if your opponent decides to bring 6 pokemon to the match, as their combined attacks can wear down Talonflame. I would recommend replacing Tflame with Chesnaught, as he can take on all of those mons, minus Ttar w/ Ice Beam. However, that opens up a whole new set of problems.
