I feel like if your Talonflame is Choice Banded then probably u-turn will be more likely of an option to go for, if sashed or any other item, combined with Talonflame's speed can shut down strong opponents. and just to mention i have seen will-o-wisp sets on Talonflames sashed before. Talonflame is also known for it's supportive potential on non-choiced sets with W-o-W, tailwind and even taunt, not to mention quick guard too you may most likely want W-o-W, test the set and you may find the correct move.
Hope i helped.
By the way i use this weird looking talonflame set, that i made on my own, if anyone want's to discuss it i have some reasons:
Talonflame @ Leftovers
Ability: Gale Wings
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Brave Bird
- Roost / Quick guard
- Protect
- Tailwind
. Talonflame always has been a suicide sweeper with taking tons of damage as recoil and life orb.
. Lefties make the recoil damage taken from BB less.
. Lefties also recover back some of the damage taken from recoil.
. Other than being KO'ed in OH, this may save it some times.
. Hence this T-flame is all out gale wings priority, speed wasn't needed.
. It also makes it survive BB's from other Talonflames
. Roost and Quick guard can be both dependant and useful, accordingly to the teams
