TM167 is a Technical Machine in the Pokémon series. It is used to teach Pokémon the move "Leech Life." Leech Life is a Bug-type move with a dual-purpose effect: it deals damage and heals the user by half of the damage inflicted. This move can be particularly advantageous for Bug-type Pokémon, providing them with a method of sustaining their HP during battle.
Leech Life has undergone significant changes over different generations. Originally, it was a low-power move; however, starting from Generation VII (Sun and Moon), its base power was increased from 20 to 80, making it a much more viable offensive and healing option. This change turned Leech Life into a potent move that could effectively sustain the user's health while dealing significant damage.
TM167, like other Technical Machines, can be used an unlimited number of times, unlike the early generations where TMs were single-use items. This shift allows players to use the move more strategically without the fear of losing it permanently.
