PVE Overview
Staraptor is arguably the best regional bird in the game in terms of stats, boasting the same Attack stat as Machamp! However, Brave Bird is just too weak for it to fully express its potential, merely settling for a mediocre spot among Flying-type attackers instead.
The positive side is that less prepared trainers can use it as a cheap option to solo Machamp, by evolving high level Starly without the need to invest any stardust.
