* In the core series, the only ways to delete an HM move are through the [[Move Deleter]] and the [[Pokémon Day Care]]. However, the move can be deleted by normal means in a game in which it is not taught through an HM.
* The only then-current HM moves that were also able to be learned by Pokémon by level-up were {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Waterfall}}. Former HMs {{m|Flash}}, {{m|Whirlpool}}, {{m|Defog}}, {{m|Rock Smash}}, {{m|Rock Climb}}, and {{m|Dive}} are also learnable by level, but only since their loss of HM status. Moves that regained their HM status, like Whirlpool and Dive, remained learnable by level-up. Waterfall remains the only HM move that has been learnable by level-up since it was introduced as a move, prior to gaining HM status.
* {{m|Rock Smash}} is the only HM with a unique type. All other HM moves share their type with at least one other HM move.

* [[Tracey's Scyther]] is the first Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime to have used a then-current HM move, {{m|Cut}}. It wasn't until the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} that one of {{Ash}}'s Pokémon used a then-current HM move; [[Ash's Grotle]] used {{m|Rock Climb}}.
** HM moves have so far been only of the {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Water}}, and {{t|Normal}} types.
** Although debatable, other Pokémon may have used {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Dive}}, and {{m|Fly}} throughout the anime; however, they were not directly ordered to use the move.
* In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, on {{rt|20|Kanto}}, Swimmer Lori states "{{m|Surf}} is no longer the only HM move you use in water" when she is defeated. This is a reference to [[Generation I]], where the only HM usable in the water was Surf.

* In Generation IV, all moves that were at one time an HM can be taught via some method, with Flash being available by [[TM70]] and Dive being available by [[Move Tutor]]. Defog and Whirlpool, which replace each other in the [[Sinnoh]]- and [[Johto]]-based games, are both HM05.
