Pokémon Black and White TM and HM locations: all 101 machines

Find every original TM01–TM95 and HM01–HM06 with Generation V power, accuracy, PP, shop prices, BP sources and event limitations.

Edition covered

Original Black and White; their sequels have different routes and encounter availability.

01

Read the original machine list

Black and White contain 95 numbered TMs and six HMs. TMs are reusable, but HM moves require the Move Deleter to forget. A machine can still be incompatible with a species. Open any species reference from the regional Pokédex for its exact original machine compatibility.

Power values here are for Generation V: Surf is 95, Ice Beam and Thunderbolt are 95, Flamethrower is 95, and Blizzard/Thunder/Fire Blast are 120. Later-game databases can show different powers. Hidden Power has variable type and power in these games; it is not a fixed 60-power move.

Cut opens the Dreamyard story route. Surf, Strength and Waterfall unlock optional areas and collection paths; Dive accesses the Abyssal Ruins from Undella Bay. Fly is a travel shortcut. Flash is TM70 and Rock Smash is TM94 in these games, rather than HMs.

The TM95 exception and acquisition checklist

TM95 Snarl exists in the original cartridge’s data, but the Lock Capsule required for its intended Castelia City handoff was never officially distributed. That makes a 95-TM ordinary collection promise inaccurate: plan around the 94 normally obtainable numbered TMs. Snarl compatibility is still useful historical data; it does not make the machine obtainable.

Several sage rewards require completing the story and finding the corresponding sage. TM90 Substitute is winter-gated in Twist Mountain. Budget separately for shop prices and Battle Subway BP; possessing the necessary HM does not automatically unlock a postgame area.

FIELD NOTE

Use the original Black and White source and access conditions. Sequel locations, present-day move powers and historical online distribution instructions are not interchangeable.
