* [[Gym Leader]]s who give out a TM on their defeat typically give out one containing a move of their [[Type specialist|specialty type]]. However, in their respective first generation of an appearance each, [[Brock]] and [[Falkner]] do not, giving out {{TM|34|Bide}} (a {{type|Normal}} move) and {{TM|31|Mud-Slap}} (a {{type|Ground}} move), respectively. This is rectified in the [[remake]]s of their debut games with Brock giving away {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} while Falkner's prize is {{TM|51|Roost}}. Likewise, [[Cilan]], [[Chili]] and [[Cress]] do not give out TMs matching their specialty type, instead giving out the {{type|Normal}} {{TM|83|Work Up}}, regardless of which of the three is battled. It should be noted, however, that there was no Flying-type TM during Generation II, while there {{m|Rock Slide|was}} a Rock-type TM during Generation I and at least two TMs for each of the starters' types in Generation V. | * [[Gym Leader]]s who give out a TM on their defeat typically give out one containing a move of their [[Type specialist|specialty type]].

** Prior to Generation III, TMs given out by the starting region's Gym Leaders teach moves that no Pokémon learns naturally. There are one exception: in {{g|Yellow}}, [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Red's Pikachu]] learns {{m|Thunderbolt}} in place of {{m|Swift}}. | |||
* Until Generation V, [[TM01]] always taught a move that involved punching; it was {{m|Mega Punch}} in Generation I, {{m|DynamicPunch}} in Generation II, and {{m|Focus Punch}} in Generations III and IV.
