    So I'm making a ROM Hack of Gen 5 and I've been thinking about making all the TMs easily accessible in the shops. The only thing that concerns me is that with TMs being one time obtained unlimited use in Gen 5, what would have bought a TM and then obtained the same TM in the overworld? Like say for example I had managed to buy the TM Work Up before you fight the first Gym but then after the first Gym the Gym Leader tries to give me the TM for Work Up. What would happen?
     
    Okay, so I decided to run my own test on this to see what happens, and thankfully it is not game breaking in the slightest (from my test at least). If this following situation happened that I outlined in the original post (say I had managed to buy the TM Work Up before you fight the first Gym but then after the first Gym the Gym Leader tries to give me the TM for Work Up), it will just say that you don't have any more room in your bag for the TM and move on. Hopefully this helps out any future ROM Hackers for Gen 5 who wish to implement easier to obtain TMs.
