TR38 is a Technical Record in the Pokémon games that teaches the move "Thunderbolt" to eligible Pokémon. Thunderbolt is an Electric-type move with 90 base power and 100% accuracy, making it a reliable attack option in both casual and competitive play. It has a 10% chance of paralyzing the target, which can hinder an opponent's strategy by reducing their speed and occasionally preventing them from acting.
Technical Records (TRs) were introduced in Pokémon Sword and Shield and function somewhat differently from Technical Machines (TMs). Unlike TMs, which can be used repeatedly, TRs are single-use items. This mechanic adds an element of resource management, as players must decide carefully when and on which Pokémon to use these valuable items.
Thunderbolt, taught by TR38, is one of the most versatile and frequently used moves in Pokémon battles, fitting well on a variety of Electric-type Pokémon such as Jolteon, Magnezone, and Rotom, as well
