Yes, you can forget TMs in Pokemon. In the recent games, TMs (Technical Machines) are used to teach Pokemon new moves. If you wish to replace a move taught by a TM, simply select a new move to learn; the game will ask if you want to forget an old move to make room. Note, the process is reversible only through re-teaching moves via TMs or visiting a Move Reminder. Always carefully choose which moves to forget, as it might impact your Pokemon's battle performance.
