In most Pokémon games, Pokémon do not forget TMs (Technical Machines) once they learn a move from one. If you replace a TM move with any other move, the Pokémon will forget the TM move. However, certain games and mechanics may vary, so it's always good to check the specifics of the game you are playing.

FAQs & Answers

  1. Can a Pokémon relearn a TM move after forgetting it? Yes, a Pokémon can relearn a TM move by using the TM again, as long as the move is compatible with that Pokémon.
  2. Do all Pokémon games handle TM moves the same way? No, TM mechanics can vary between Pokémon games, so it’s important to check the specific rules within the game you are playing.
  3. What happens if I replace a TM move with another move? If you replace a TM move with a different move, the Pokémon will forget the TM move permanently until you retaught it using a TM.
