Tossing fTM?
any usage of have a large surplus of fast TMs?
Answers
I think the best usage of them is 2 ways:
1. To save it for 'evolve pokemon' so that you have 1/3 chance of rolling the right moves instead of 1/6 chance (For example, if you evolved a walrein for rayquaza purposes, you only need to hit the blizzard for the jackpot, as you don't have to worry about the fast move. You can then just use your extra TM to get the ice quick move too.
2. To change the move of the pokemon just for the purpose of a particular raid and back after it is over. The most significant case for this is Iron Tail/Stone Edge Ttar against Articuno, which outperforms Bite/Stone Edge but it doesn't exist anymore. This would require having the optimal quick move against a particular boss being suboptimal 'normally'.
Some of my previous uses also included Suicune to see what hidden power it has and behold I have an army of legacy suicune now, for what it's worth.
I'll save some for now and they may be useful but if you're in the ballpark of 30+ and struggle to use them, then maybe you can chuck some away.
Agreed with this post. My eye is on Pokemon like Lugia (DT for Ray/Mewtwo, Extrasensory for general use) and Groudon (DT for budget Ray tank, Mud Shot for anything decent)
Additionally, this allows one to try out the feel for quick moves to see how they like them, ie Psycho Cut/Confusion on Mewtwo, Fury Cutter/Bullet Seed on Sceptile, Fury Cutter/Bullet Punch on Scizor.
You remind me of my friend. He has tons of cTM and fTM but not willing to use any, then he complained to me that he has too many of these.
I told him to TM his legendaries to the best moveset, then he said he only needed to TM 1 or 2 legendaries, not all.
If you don't want to use TMs, then for God's sake don't complain there are too many. Ah well, at least I managed to convince him to TM his P/HB blissey.
I also think it's possible that Legendaries may be re-released with other movesets - would love to see Kyogre get Dragon Tail back, DT/Bliz would crush flying dragons, and DT/Thunder might even have good uses too.
Remember when Gyarados got Waterfall, everyone changed all theirs over almost on the spot. That could happen again, with many other mon.
