Pokemon Go Charged TMs Drop Rate Nerf Report, Players Running out of Charged TMs

Trainers, a recent thread on the official TSR Reddit got out attention, and we feel obligated to share it with the rest of the community. The thread concerns Charged TMs and the lowered drop rate, so don’t hesitate to learn more below.

Pokemon Go players are experiencing a significant drop in Charged TMs lately and are not happy about it. Now, as we all know Tier 3 and Mega Raids guarantee Charged TMs, while Tier 5 Raids don’t guarantee a Charged TMs drop, but they do give Charged TMs as a reward but are not guaranteed like Tier 3 and Mega Raids. It looks like Niantic and Pokemon Go nerf Charged TMs every time we have a Rocket event.

Do you notice how we don’t get potions and revives during Team Go Rocket Takeovers? Potions and revives are nerfed during Team Go Rocket events.

A lot of Pokemon Go players are experiencing a drop in Charged TMs, either from Raids or GBL (Go Battle League), and say they’ve never run out of Charged TMs before. Since this change, they say they are out of Charged TMs.

Here is what the folks over on TSR Reddit have to say about this change:
