I currently have 43 fast TMs and 43 charged TMs just taking up space in my inventory. I have a good squad of raiders, and I’d like to spend my stardust leveling them up past 30. So I’m not sure what to do with my TMs.

I know that some moves are “almost as good” as other moves, but now I’m looking to optimize my Pokemon, and I’d be willing to use TMs even if the improvement is minimal.

Here are the Pokemon I’m thinking of using TMs on:

Jolteon: DC to TB
Vaporeon: AT to HP
Lapras: IS to FB
Cloyster: B to A
Venusaur: RL to VW
Alakazam: PC to C
Gyarados: DB to B or DT
Gyarados: DP to HP or C
Charizard: FB to OH

Do it before they become legacy moves

All of them make sense except these:

Alakazam - I don't think it can afford Confusion tbh, it is way too weak and you really desperately Psycho cut to dodge and keep you in the fight

Gyarados- TM Dragon breath?!?!??! Are you serious?!?!

These final two are minor points:

Gyarados Dragon Pulse- I don't know. Right now you may rightly argue that it is a worse outrage (even though it is actually not strictly worse). I don't know if they will add dynamics like outrage damages yourself etc.

Charizard FB to overheat: Again, not sure if they will ad dynamic that you can only use it once in a battle then it weakens

I think the most ridiculous one isn't any of these, but changing Lapras' legacy Ice Shard!

Just enjoy optimizing you mon. It's rare to have more rare resources than you need.

86 TMs? How many raids have you participated? Change the DP Gyaraods, FB Charizard and RL Venusaur.

Jolteon - personal choice
Vape - AT is better, except for a few seconds in each fight
Lapras - why remove IS??
Cloyster - yes
Venusaur - no brainer, do it
Alakazam - personal preference...should have one of each
Gyarados - why?
Gyarados - yup
Charizard - yup.

...just my 2 stardust worth.

Don't ever use a TM if it's your only one with that move. God knows if it will become legacy.
For this reason I'm keeping my RL/SoB Venusaur, even though I have many extra fast TMs.

I got one noteworthy Moltres 96%...FS/FB. Charge TM to HW. Charge TM to FB. Charge TM to HW. Charge TM to Overheat. As long as you don't burn 4 for each one it'll be ok. If you already have put dust into them, tinker--but be willingly to cut bait since obviously these aren't rated 10

You've got enough to do what you want. I've got about 35+ of each overall. I've used up like half on my favorites, attackers, and I still have 10+ of each left. You got them to use them, right?

Thanks everyone! Based on replies, I am thinking:

Jolteon: DC to TB
Venusaur: RL to VW
Gyarados: DP to HP or C
Charizard: FB to OH

I'm still on the fence about:

Vaporeon: AT to HP (I have two level 39 Vapes, one with AT and one with HP)
Cloyster: B to A (on one hand B is legacy, but in the end I just want the best move set)
