In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, there are items called Technical Machines that allow you to teach your Pokemon moves they could not learn naturally. TMs are good because they can help your Pokemon learn moves that will help cover their weaknesses.
TMs are important to use if you want to play Ranked Battles because of how useful they are. Here, we are going to help you find out how you can get yourself the TM for the rock-type move, Power Gem.
Where To Find Power Gem In Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
In the Pokemon series, each TM has a unique identifier for each move. For Rock Gem, you are looking for TM101. Rock Gem is unique because it is one of the very few Rock-type moves that is not only strong but it is also a special attack instead of a physical one.
One of the easiest ways you can get TM101 in your collection is by simply finding it in the overworld of the game. There are a couple of locations where you can find Rock Gem in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The TM101 locations are as follows:
- Area Zero
- Dalizapa Passage
- East Province Area Three
- South Province Area Three
One of the best pieces of advice we can give you to actually locate this TM is to complete the Path of Legends storyline in Scarlet and Violet. The reason for this is as you progress in this storyline, your rideable Legendary Pokemon will have increased movement options. This will help you find TM101 much easier.
How To Craft Power Gem TM In Scarlet & Violet
Of course, there are other ways you can find TM101 in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. In these two games, you can actually craft TMS for the first time in the Pokemon series. To craft TM101, you will need a couple of items. These items are:
- 8000 LP
- 3 Spoink Pearl
- 3 Sableye Gem
- 3 Mareep Wool
If you want to farm these Pokemon resources, you need to take advantage of the Let's Go feature in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The Let's Go feature allows you to essentially automatically battle wild Pokemon.
When you beat them using this feature, your Pokemon will automatically collect the resources from the defeated Pokemon. This makes farming for Pokemon resources a lot faster than individually battling them one by one.
