A Technical Record (Japanese: わざレコード Move Record), or TR for short, is a type of item introduced in Generation VIII that can be used to teach a Pokémon a move. They are single-use items that are consumed after use, making them functionally similar to TMs prior to Generation V. However, TRs differ in one respect: once a TR is used to teach a Pokémon a move, that move can later be relearned from the Move Reminder for free if forgotten.
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, TRs are exclusively found in the Wild Area, where they can be received as rewards for completing Max Raid Battles, or can be exchanged for watts with Watt Traders throughout the area.
Fling can be used if the user is holding a TR. Its power is equal to the listed power of the contained move, defaulting to 10 if the move does not have a listed power.
