This may have been answered somewhere and I havent seen it.

But is there any way to get the new TMs, or berry outside of Raiding?

While I tend to be active in Gym scene, talking with a level 30 friend who hasnt even picked a team made me realize not everyone does gyms at all. Some are just for catch, and they might want a chance at TMs too.

Maybe on Daily Spin chance? or on 7 day?

TMs is obtainable only in raids as far as the availabl info .

raids only at the moment.

Any high level player who have not picked a tem yet clearly have no interest in gym battles, thus they should have no interest in what moves their pokemon have either so TMs have no value to them.

That is impractical statment at best , given that raids have specific times and need gathering of people , it may be not practical to every one to participate in , on the other hand they can still do gyms solo hence the need for the TMs ,berries and candies
Also for the given example ( no team yet ) may be he want to collect moves as well

It will work.

First stage is the egg. That will give lots of trainers time to get to the raid. once the egg is hatched all trainers have 1 hour to defeat the raid boss.

Now here is the "gottcha". trainers can only get 1 raid pass per day from spinning a gym disc. Trainers can only hold 1 raid pass in their inventory. But, trainers can buy premium raid passes form the store.

Collecting moves? this menas they need more storage space. Meaning spending money for pokecoins. Its not really bringing them anything in the long run to collect moves and not do anything with them. These trainers just want to complete the pokedex, the pokemon themselves don't matter to them.

I got your point regarding the Dex completing if the people not interested in gyms
The first part I have to disagree tho , personally my nearest gym is 3 km + , so I don't do gyms daily , most the time weekends only , keep in mind that people with regular raid access will have advantage of TMs and the catchable monster , will have to wait and see and am praying to God they add more gyms and stops around me haha

This is one of the downsides. If the raid map scanner is the same as the pokemon scanner then it should show up in your game when a raid is active. Getting to it may be another story lol.

The problem comes that not every raid victory will grant a TM. Tt could be golden berries or rare candy which depending on how a trainer plays may yield little to no value to them. I know I would be personally pissed if I used a raid pass only to get rare candy.

If you only play catch and walk or something like having a living dex and don't ever take part on the battles scene why would you even care about TM's, movesets or IV's at all? It blows my mind lol

Movesets are irrelevant...but IV aren't. Even if you don't battle, I can imagine that 'collectors' would like to know if they have a 'perfect' mon or not - I can imagine they would want to keep 'the best'...they just can't tell if/when they have a perfect mon.
