TM Usage
I currently have 43 fast TMs and 43 charged TMs just taking up space in my inventory. I have a good squad of raiders, and I’d like to spend my stardust leveling them up past 30. So I’m not sure what to do with my TMs.
I know that some moves are “almost as good” as other moves, but now I’m looking to optimize my Pokemon, and I’d be willing to use TMs even if the improvement is minimal.
Here are the Pokemon I’m thinking of using TMs on:
Jolteon: DC to TB
Vaporeon: AT to HP
Lapras: IS to FB
Cloyster: B to A
Venusaur: RL to VW
Alakazam: PC to C
Gyarados: DB to B or DT
Gyarados: DP to HP or C
Charizard: FB to OH
Answers
All of them make sense except these:
Alakazam - I don't think it can afford Confusion tbh, it is way too weak and you really desperately Psycho cut to dodge and keep you in the fight
Gyarados- TM Dragon breath?!?!??! Are you serious?!?!
These final two are minor points:
Gyarados Dragon Pulse- I don't know. Right now you may rightly argue that it is a worse outrage (even though it is actually not strictly worse). I don't know if they will add dynamics like outrage damages yourself etc.
Charizard FB to overheat: Again, not sure if they will ad dynamic that you can only use it once in a battle then it weakens
Thanks everyone! Based on replies, I am thinking:
Jolteon: DC to TB
Venusaur: RL to VW
Gyarados: DP to HP or C
Charizard: FB to OH
I'm still on the fence about:
Vaporeon: AT to HP (I have two level 39 Vapes, one with AT and one with HP)
Cloyster: B to A (on one hand B is legacy, but in the end I just want the best move set)
