Pokémon Emerald TM List
Emerald adds TM prizes Ruby & Sapphire never had. Trainer Hill opens after the Hall of Fame and gives Sunny Day, Giga Drain or Brick Break for a clear under 12 minutes, depending on the mode, and the Lilycove Quiz Lady can hand over Hyper Beam. The Battle Frontier has no TMs at all, so don’t save your Battle Points for one.
