Favorite TM?
 
Just kinda noticed that no one really talks about TMs, even though we're always using them. ;) Here are some of my favorites:

TM35: Flamethrower
- It's also my favorite move as well, so of course it's on this list.

TM45: Attract
- I've always liked this move since Stadium 2. It's hilarious seeing how mad people get when their Pokemon is infatuated. XD

I like a lot more, but these are the ones that come to mind first. How bout y'all?

Bear September 14th, 2010 9:56 AM

Thunderbolt and Psychic come to mind instantly.

But I have to say Toxic. The ultimate annoyer. And you can teach it to ANY pokemon which is ftw.

Rando September 14th, 2010 10:11 AM

I really like Taunt and Avalanche together. But as Bear mentioned above, Toxic a great TM to slowly take down really bulky opponents.

Saitou September 14th, 2010 10:26 AM

Flamethrower and Psychic come to my mind first, since I search for/get them every time I play the game.

I also like Aerial Ace, since I always teach it to my bird Pokémon in FR.

Dooonerz September 14th, 2010 10:31 AM

Ermm, Hyper Beam? xD

and OBVVSSSS Thunderbolt XD

I always find myself saving money for Ice Beam TMs in the generations where it's possible. Just because Ice is among the best attacking types, and I'm not really a fan of Blizzard.
Also, Toxic. Especially in RBY where you can really abuse it by putting it on Arbok/Tenta/Flareon/Cloyster/etc and then spamming Wrap and friends.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ September 14th, 2010 11:20 AM

Earthquake, Thunderbolt, and Ice Beam.

All three must be present in some form on every team I make.

dragoniteuser September 14th, 2010 11:25 AM

Two words for ya: Dragon Claw...

My favorite TM is TM27 in generation 1, which was Fissure.

But generally for all games, I like TM14, which is Blizzard.

Perriechu September 14th, 2010 1:04 PM

TM 35 - Flamethrower - I love how this move looks especially in colosseum.

TM 26 - Earthquake - Need a reason ... ?

TM 45 - Attract - Everyone thinks it's useless, it can come in handy for In game.

Project. September 14th, 2010 2:58 PM

My opinion would easily come to the following;

TM13 - In Emerald, this was one of my many lifesavers. Ice Beam provided decent support.
TM26 - Earthquake. What's a team without it? Best Ground move ever. And a good candidate for the best move ever.
TM45 - Since its first appearence, Attract has been one of my most favorite movies. It can be easily applied, and even works on Wi-Fi matches well. But it does take a little bit of luck.
TM75 - Swords Dance is one of my favorite stat-boosting moves... Scyther (not a scizor fan) benefits from this bad boy.
TM73 - An instant classic, Thunder Wave is a very accurate parilyzer. While some people see it as a bad move, I see this a great one, especially when it comes to capturing Pokemon and against the Pokemon League.
TM81 - X-scissor is one of my favorite bug moves... And it's very compatible. On my Scyther, I put X-scissor, Attract, Swords Dance, and I forgot what that last move was... and I benefit greatly.

Anyway, those are my faves. I like your guy's too. :)

AuraAshley1990 September 14th, 2010 3:33 PM

well i dont know the numbers for them but the tms for toxic and double team and protect. it makes for a good combo

Kelp September 14th, 2010 4:14 PM

Energy Ball. <333 Forgot what tm that is though. x3

Timbjerr September 14th, 2010 4:44 PM

Anyone that knows me knows I have a Poison-type obsession. With that said, it should come as no surprise that my favorite TMs include Toxic, Sludge Bomb, and Poison Jab. TM06, TM36, and TM80 respectively if my memory of such things is to be trusted. XD

PlatinumDude September 14th, 2010 4:57 PM

-Flamethrower (TM35)

-Energy Ball (TM53)

Gen Three: TM Shadow Ball~ GBA Medicham for the win!
Gen Four: TM Roar~ Duck? Duck? GOOSE!

BHwolfgang September 16th, 2010 5:45 PM

It's so hard to get the good T.M's in SoulSilver. :(

I will always try to obtain Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, Psychic, Sword Dance, and Earthquake for my party. Other T.M's such as Ice Beam, Shadow Ball, U-turn, and Dragon Claw are still desirable, but I rarely use Ice-type Pokemons and Dragons only appear later in the game.

Some are just silly, like Trick Room. I would always have Mr. Mime use this. :)

liketoys0000 September 16th, 2010 9:51 PM

My favorite TM is TM27 in the first generation,also like Giga Drain

solarowl September 16th, 2010 9:54 PM

Earthquake probably. Don't know why. Maybe because its strong.

Ho-Oh September 17th, 2010 1:42 AM

Earthquake / Brick Break / Ice Beam <3

...usually moves I put on my water starter (if I get one).

Aaand there are a few others, such as Flamethrower and Thunder Punch, but I can't remember them.

Amore September 17th, 2010 7:58 AM

Thunderbolt/Flamethrower/Ice Beam - Generally kick-ass moves.....

Overheat - In R/S/E/FR/LG it was the last tm, and my Blaziken running Overheat and 3 physical moves is brilliant in Emerald.

Protect - I like fire-types, especially in Gen III, so Protect helps the burn run down the health.
