Pokemon Diamond/ I dont understand HM and TM?

Question

so can i use HM's on all of my pokemonand whats a move deleter?

Answer 1

TM can only be taught / used once and then its gone forever, HM can be taught as many times as you want and cant be forgotten by a pokemon unless u see a move deleter. A move deleter is the only possible way for a pokemon to forget an HM.

Answer 2

Tm List Pokemon Diamond

Answer 3

HM or Hidden Machines are reuseable Tm (or Technical Machines). You can use them on any pokem on that can learn that move, and unlike a TM that is broken after being used, you can use the HM as much as you want. Remember though, that just like TMs, some pokemon are unable to learn the move. Example being trying to teach Fly to a Digglet, or Rock Climb to a Magicarp.



The only downside to HM moves is that they can't be forgotten or removed unless you speak to the Move Deleter in Canalave City. he is the old man that lives in the house between the Pokemon Center and the Poke Mart. If you talk to him he will delete any move you want from the pokemon of your choice, removing it from their known move list.



Hope that answers all your questions.

Answer 4

A TM teaches one of your Pokemon a move (if that particular monster can learn it). It can only be used once.



An HM teaches one of your Pokemon a move (if that particular monster can learn it). It can be used over and over, and can also be used outside of battle to manipulate certain objects in the environment, or to otherwise make travel easier. Moves learned by HM cannot be replaced with new moves by TM or leveling up. In the original Red/Blue/Yellow, once a Pokemon learned an HM move, it was stuck with that move forever.



The Move Deleter is a man that lives in a certain house who can make your Pokemon forget an HM move, thus freeing up space in its move list for you to teach it something different. He's appeared in every game since Gold/Silver.

Answer 5

HM stand for Hidden Machine they are required to get to other areas of the game, TMs are Technical Machines, they are not needed, however you normally get 1 of each throughout the game, you can buy them in the super mart. The move deleter deletes moves your Pokemon lean, HMs can be deleted by the move deleter, I forget which town the move deleter is in, it's person.

Answer 6

certain pokemon r able to learn TMs and HMs, u can find out who is able to by using it, the move deleter is to remove HM moves taught to ur pokemon, (since thats the only way) HMs r also used to get to certain places

Answer 7

HM's can only be used on Pokemon that can learn it and the move deleter is the only person in the entire game that can delete HM's

Answer 8

A HM is a move that you can learn a pokemon when ever you like and a TM (technical machine) you can teach a pokemon once

Answer 9

HMs are attacks that can be used in the world as well as in battles. You can use it as many times as you want. You can't teach /every/ Pokemon HM moves, but a majority of them can learn them.



TMs are one-use move teachers. For most of these, once you use it it is gone forever.



The move deleter is a guy who can delete your Pokemon's attacks. He's in one of the houses in Canalave city.

Answer 10

TM and HM teach move to your pokemon. However, you can delete TM but you cannot delete HM. HM is a permanent move. Thus, you need move deleter to delete HM.

Answer 11

only some pokemon can learn some hms and u cant delete the moves without going to the move deleter.

Answer 12

TM's are Technical Machines, they are moves that you pick up that you can teach your pokemon. They do not last though, you use it, it's gone.



HM's are Hidden machines, and unlike TM's, they never run out, but the moves cannont be deleated unless you use the Move deleater. HM moves are used to do different things in the game for instance:

HM01: CUT; Cut's down small trees, in Battle it's an ok move with a high Critical hit Ratio,

HM02: FLY; Enables you to fly from town to town, in Battle, it's a great 2-turn flying move

HM03: SURF; Enables you to travel on water, in Battle, it's a Great Move that hits all other pokemon on the field (except the user)

HM04: STRENGTH; Enables you to move boulders out of the way. In battle it's a great Normal Move

HM05: DEFOG; Clears out foggy areas, in battle it lower's the foe's evasivness

HM06: ROCK SMASH; let's you destroy cracked boulders, In battle it's a weak fighting move that may lower the Foe's defense

HM07: Waterfall: Let's you climb waterfalls In battle it's an ok water move

HM08: Rock Climb: Enables you to climb walls that have rocks in a line, In battle, it's a great normal move that has a good chance of also confusing the foe



Now remember that once you use an HM on a pokemon, it cannont forget this move, unless you use the MOVE DELEATER, He lives in Canalave city



Now with HM's, you have to beat Gym leaders in order to use them out of battle

Gym 1 enables you to use rosk smash

Gym 2 enables you to use cut

Gym 3 enables you to use fly

Gym 4 enables you to use Defog

Gym 5 enables you to use Surf

Gym 6 enables you to use Strenght

Gym 7 enables you to use Rock Climb

Gym 8 enables you to use Waterfall



here's where you get each HM:

HM01 (Cut) Eterna Forest

HM02 (Fly) Galactic wherehouse

HM03 (Surf) Cynthia's Grandmother in Celestic Town

HM04 (Strength) Old Lady in Lost Tower

HM05 (Defog) person in Safari Zone

HM06 (Rocksmash) Hiker at MT. Coronet

HM07 (Waterfall) jasmine in Sunnyshore city

HM08 (Rock Smash) Route 217

Hope this helps!

Answer 13

Only certain pokemon can learn certain moves. An hm is like a tm, but it can't be replaced. I.e. fire things can't learn surf. That is where the move deleter comes in. he can make you pkmn forget hm moves so they can learn more.

Answer 14

hm's can be used unlimited times, whereas tm's can only be used once. a move deleter is a person who deletes moves, and is the only person that can delete a learned hm



hope this helped
