Evolve Crocalor to get Blast Burn.
Starting with the event and afterwards, Skeledirge can learn the Charged Attack Torch Song and does not require an Elite Charged TM.
Meta Relevance
Skeledirge
 PvE wise, you can skip Skeledirge as there are way better Fire types out there and Blast Burn isn't enough to pull it out of mediocrity. 
Skeledirge is already an Ultra League staple, but Blast Burn and Torch Song will not be making much of a difference, not taking away from how relevant this croc already is.
