Hidden Machines (HM for short) is an item that can be used to teach a Pokemon a new move. These HMs are slightly different than TMs, in that, they generally have a use outside of battle, even if the Pokemon has run out of PP (only in the field) or has fainted during battle.
| NOTE |

| It's generally a good idea to have a specific Pokemon set aside to learn HMs, as teaching them to any of your primary Pokemon would not be as beneficial. |
