Tutor Moves & TMs/TRs

Learn how to teach your Pokemon new moves using TMs, TRs, and move tutors on Cobblemon PBG.

TMs (Technical Machines) and TRs (Technical Records) allow you to teach your Pokemon new moves beyond what they learn by leveling up. With over 275 moves available, you can customize your team's movesets for any situation.

How to Get TMs/TRs

NPC Shops

Visit the TM/TR shop NPCs at spawn to browse and purchase available moves:

  • Moves are sorted by type (Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, etc.)
  • Each move has its own price in Pokedollars
  • Browse the shop to see which moves are available and their costs

Other Sources

  • Raid rewards — TMs and TRs can drop from raid battles
  • Crates — Some crate rewards include TMs/TRs
  • Events — Special events may offer exclusive move discs

How to Use

  1. Obtain a TM or TR from a shop or reward
  2. Use the item on a compatible Pokemon
  3. If the Pokemon can learn the move, it will be taught immediately
  4. TMs remain in your inventory for reuse; TRs are consumed

Available Move Types

TMs and TRs cover all 18 Pokemon types with 275+ moves from the full Cobblemon move pool, including moves from the Teal Mask and Indigo Disk DLCs.

Check the NPC shop at spawn to see the full list of available moves and their prices. Prices vary by move!
Not every Pokemon can learn every move. The move must be in the Pokemon's compatible move list for it to work.
