TMs are Technical Machines that can be found in game at PokéStops. These TMs can be used for various different things, including using powerful attacks like the never before seen Hydro Cannon! The only way to use one of these new TM’s is by fighting a Raid Boss (so far only Kyogre has been confirmed, which has a Hydro Cannon move). The best way to get these Technical Machines is to defeat Raid Bosses.
TMs are items you can find at Pokestops in Pokemon GO. They have many different uses, including progression in gyms or battle with other trainers, but there’s one use that hasn’t been discussed much… well until now. Use them to teach new moves to your Pokemon!

How to use tm in pokemon go
These are the steps that you need to follow in order to use a TM:
- You will need your chosen Pokemon with you, whether it’s defending a gym or carrying around candy for another creature.
- Open up you Bag screen, and tap on any TMs that you have available to use. Select which Pokemon you want to teach the new move to.
- A warning will come up, asking if you’re sure about teaching your Pokemon a TM move; tap yes and that’s it. The Pokemon now knows the attack and can use it whenever they like in battle or otherwise. You can also check what moves your creatures know by tapping on the Pokemon’s summary and looking at the moves listed below their name.
Sounds like a useful thing to do, right? Well it is! And you can get more TMs with this method: When you defeat a Raid boss (like Entei for example) you will see some of the people in your area who helped fight against Entei. There is a chance that they will give you some TMs.
So, for example, if you’re helping fight against Entei and someone who isn’t in your area gives you one of the new TMs then it’s yours to keep even if they leave! So next time you beat a Raid Boss remember to say thanks to those who help you out, as they might be able to reward you with some useful things.
