Can't remember the details. If I have Hidden Power and I QTM it to the other move and then back to Hidden Power again, am I guaranteed to get the same type of Hidden Power, or does it randomize?

Guaranteed to be identical. The HP type is tied to the individual mon.

Answer is above.

But I have a question for you. What Pokemon has Hidden Power that you would TM? Suicuine? (By the way, Hidden Power is no longer available for it)

I believe people ask this question mostly for Togekiss hoping to get a:
a) Flying type to be a slightly bigger wall for Machamp (Air Slash is already good, IMHO)
b) Fairy type, but that won't happen because Hidden Power can never be a fairy type. I mean, in the main series it can never be Fairy nor Normal, so I believe Niantic would respect that:

Other useful mons that can learn it are Porygon-2 and its Gen4 evolution Porygon-Z, with the latter having actually very high Attack stat. Shaymin (Sky Forme) also learns it, and can make the whole difference between being a meh Pokémon or the best Grass attacker in the game.

In this site you can check which mons learn a particular move by searching for the move, btw:
