Brave Bird is a Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV.

Effect

The user charges at the foe, damaging it heavily. It also takes some damage from the hit itself.

In the anime

Staraptor: Staraptor flies up, closes its wings as it flies, is coated by fire, and dives down on the foe. When it makes contact with the foe the fire disappears and the user turns bright blue all over.

Staravia: Same as above.
