* TMs can be found on the ground or bought at department stores. Some are also given away by [[Gym Leaders]] as prizes for defeating them in addition to a [[Badge]].
* The Ribbon Syndicate offer incredibly expensive ribbons; the Gorgeous Ribbon, Royal Ribbon, and Gorgeous Royal Ribbon.
* There are currently 95 TMs in the games. In [[Generation I]] to [[Generation III]] there were 50 TMs though the moves the TMs contained would change over the generations. In [[Generation IV]] the TM list was expanded to 92 with the 50 TMs from Generation III remaining the same.

* TMs play a similar role the the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]] as most have a compatibility requirements and all those released before {{TCG|Legends Awakened}} are to be discarded from the Pokémon at the end of the turn they were played. These cards first saw a release in {{TCG|Pokémon VS}}; however, international audiences did not have access to them until the {{TCG|Expedition Base Set}}.
