TM's no longer dropping?

I haven't received a TM in the past 12 bird raids. Been getting just potions and maybe 3 pieces of candy and golden razz each. Wtf's going on?

They drop less frequently, at least for some of us. I got several fast TMs over the weekend (after going over a week with none) and got one charge TM yesterday. So yes, they're still out there.

Fast from a Lapras today. We majorly undermanned it, so I fainted right towards the end--8 balls. If you are getting 12 balls in some of these raids, you'll get some of the better rewards...eventually

Where did you see a connection between the number of balls and the rewards?

So slaughtering the boss with a group of 20 gets you less rewards. Better to break into smaller groups and groups by team.

Potions diluted rewards a bit since you may get "bundles" of various potions now (before, it was just revives...)...

Best to raid with same team and small groups ideally...

Too bad I can't trade 150 max potions for something useful, like 50 rare candy.

Did 3 bird raids this morning and received a TM for each(1 FTM and 2 CTMs).
On a side note only got 3 GR's from one and none from the other 2 and I think 12 RC total which is way above my average lately. Since the rewards change Ive been averaging a little less than a TM per level 5 raid maybe .75 per vs over 1 per raid or 1.25 per before. I used to get 2-3 TMs in a single raid regularly and recently have only got 1 at a time.
Getting to the raid early and getting a group together to max rewards is extremely helpful. I usually get 10+ balls and thats probably why my drop rate is so juicy.

Got 1 fast 1 charge for Zap today! Got 15 rare candies for soloing gengar yesterday! They are there but certainly not as many before.

I’ve found they’ve been dropping significantly less than before the reward changes. I’ve been getting 0 charge TMs for the longest time.
