Mutually-compatible TMs (such as {{m|Flamethrower}} from a father {{p|Typhlosion}} to a baby {{p|Torchic}}) will also be passed down through {{pkmn|breeding}}, though prior to Generation V there were several Pokémon that could only learn certain moves contained in TMs via breeding, such as {{p|Vulpix}} with {{m|Energy Ball}}.

The depiction of TMs has changed over time. In the TCG, they are shown as small boxes that the Poké Ball would be inserted into, but from {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} onwards, they have been depicted as discs that are inserted into the [[TM Case]] and the case itself teaches the Pokémon the move. Thus, the one-use nature of the TMs prior to Generation V can be seen as analogous to DVDs that destroy themselves after use.
