Summary

TM04 (Technical Machine 04) is an item in the Pokémon series that teaches a specific move to a Pokémon. The move associated with TM04 has varied across different generations of the games:

  • Generation I: TM04 contains the move Whirlwind, a Normal-type move that forces the target to switch with a random Pokémon from its Trainer's party in battles with multiple Pokémon. Whirlwind's primary use is for disrupting the opponent's strategy.
