Blacephalon is fast and light (123 speed, 94 HP). In a PokéSurvivor run that means kiting: keep a projectile, beam, or boomerang in the active slot and do not stand in melee unless you have a defensive item.
The run starts with Ember (Ascuas in the game). A single fireball with a burn. The usual starting move for Fire partners.Later cards can offer any move of Fire / Ghost plus every Normal move.

No. Blacephalon joins the collection from the Alola gacha, or as a wild shiny if you defeat one.
Blacephalon is Fire / Ghost. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.
Yes. A wild Blacephalon is shiny at 1/4096, and a gacha copy is shiny at 1/100. Defeating the wild shiny adds it to the collection.
No. Blacephalon can appear in waves. If its BST sits in a boss band, it can also be one of the five timed bosses.
