TM drop rate buff or RNG?

I did 4 raids in the last couple of days (1 tier 3 and 3 tier 5) and got 6 TMs total. That is way more than I'm used to. Was there a buff in drop rate or I just got lucky?

Lucky. Record all of your raid rewards if you're concerned enough.

I've been getting a lot more the last couple days too, but I assume it's just chance. I got 1 fast and 2 charged TMs from a Tyranitar raid yesterday (first time I've ever gotten multiple charged from one raid), and then another fast TM from each of three other raids. Total of 6 TMs from 7 raids, while usually I go 5 or 6 raids in a row without any.

Also, 15 golden razz from one Entei, and 9 rare candy once or twice. Out of all seven of those raids, I didn't have a single one where I only got potions and revives, like was happening for a while.

I've gotten just potions and revives about 3 times in the last 15-20 level 3 and level 5 raids, but I'm also odd man out on the level 5s, as all my fellow raiders are Valor, and I'm Instinct.

I got one fast TM from the last 15 raids i took part in.

This question is coming up quite a bit over the last 2-3 days...here and on TSR.
I want to say it is just you are having good RNG (and congrats), but part of me is starting to think that so many are reporting it lately that there may just be something to it.

I've gotten 2 TMs out of the last 8-10 level 3 raids. A nice gift.

I have more TM drops for the last couple of days as well. I even got 3 fast TM from a level 5 raid today. I will keep close watch over TM drops for the next few days to see if this TM drop increase is RNG or a real buff.
