Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire Game Cheat: TM and HM Locations

Sep 13, 2019

So you're playing Nintendo's Pokémon Ruby or Pokémon Sapphire video game on your GBA when suddenly you need something called a TM or HM to get past an area. What's a TM? What's an HM? Where can you get one? Do they taste good with ketchup? Well, we've got answers to three of those questions for you with this Cheat Street game cheat. Check out our Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire TM/HM location list!

What the Heck are TMs and HMs in Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire?

TMs and HMs are items you can find that'll teach your Pokemon new moves. TMs teach Pokémon new combat moves but you can only use each TM once. HMs teach Pokémon new powers they can use outside of combat, like how to cut down trees or surf on water. TMs are cool for powering up your Pokémon, but you can beat the game without 'em. But, if you can't get all the HMs, you won't be able to beat the game!

Finding all the HMs in Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire
