How To Craft Protect In Pokemon Scarlet And Violet

If you are playing competitive Pokemon battles, you will need a lot of Protect TMs. Luckily, you can actually craft TM007 in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. It is a pretty easy recipe as well. Here are the materials you need to craft Protect in Scarlet and Violet:

• 400 LP
• 3 Lechonk Hair

These are all materials that you can get very early in the game. To farm these materials, we suggest that you take advantage of the Let's Go feature in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

This makes farming materials to craft TMs so much easier.
