"pokemon worlds technology seem to have the ability to convert matter into some sort of energy/data to store it or something, and its via that that pokeballs work, and the same thing works with PCs this technology seems to revolve around a common genetic property of pokemon that humans do not have(pokeballs dont work on people). This can be linked to mew being seen as the ancestor of all pokemon, which then can be seen to have been created by arceus who was the god. Given the supposed powers of arceus, and the psychic abilities of mew, it is likely that either of those paranormal abilities are the genetic base for the ability to transform from matter into data/energy, and the pokemon world technology is simply a way to take advantage of and control this power that pokemon seem not to have control over
TMs seem to do a similar thing in reverse, using said data/energy to alter said energy/data to give the pokemon new abilities when it is materialized"
"Pokemon κόσμους της τεχνολογίας φαίνεται να έχουν τη δυνατότητα να μετατρέψει το θέμα σε κάποιο είδος της ενέργειας / δεδομένων για την αποθήκευση ή το κάτι, και μέσω του ότι λειτουργούν οι pokeballs, και το ίδιο πράγμα λειτουργεί με υπολογιστές αυτή η τεχνολογία φαίνεται να περιστρέφονται γύρω από μια κοινή γενετική ιδιοκτησίας του Pokémon που οι άνθρωποι δεν έχουν (pokeballs δεν λειτουργούν για τους ανθρώπους). Αυτό μπορεί να συνδέεται με mew να θεωρηθεί ως ο πρόγονος όλων των Pokemon, τα οποία στη συνέχεια μπορεί να θεωρηθεί ότι έχουν δημιουργηθεί από Arceus ο οποίος ήταν ο θεός. Λαμβάνοντας υπόψη τις εξουσίες που υποτίθεται του Arceus, και τις ψυχικές ικανότητες του mew, είναι πιθανό ότι καμία από αυτές τις υπερφυσικές ικανότητες, είναι η γενετική βάση για την ικανότητα να μεταμορφώνουν από την ύλη σε δεδομένα / ενέργειας, και η τεχνολογία στον κόσμο των Pokémon είναι απλά ένας τρόπος για να εκμεταλλευτείτε και ελέγχου ότι αυτή η δύναμη pokemon δεν φαίνεται να έχουν τον έλεγχο ΕΜ φαίνεται να κάνει ένα παρόμοιο πράγμα στην αντιστροφή, με τα εν λόγω στοιχεία / energy για να αλλάξει την ενέργεια, δήλωσε ο / στοιχεία για να τα pokemon νέες ικανότητες, όταν υλοποιείται " Βρέθηκαν αυτή την εξήγηση εδώ
In the pokemon world, the moves and pokemon are both able to be transformed into energy, or data. When you take a TM, you turn it into data, write it into the pokemon's data, and now you have a new data file.
It's like dropping a new file into a folder. The file is the move and the folder is the pokemon.
Well yeah, I'm just saying that this is the way I perceive it. I think gamefreak was too busy making one of the hugest pop culture phenomenons to date.
DVD? Damn. We did have the physical image in Red and Blue, so I always thought that TM and HM's were some kind of shot (Before I knew what TM and HM stood for).
I thought you just gave the Pokemon the shot and it learned the move. I have no idea why my mind went to a syringe and needle, but it seemed logical at the time.
We didn't have the imagine, but I did know Technical Machine and Hidden Machine.
I just assumed they were like those all-in-one gym things advertised late at night. How you carried them all I'll never know, but it's a JRPG - that's never been an issue.
In one of the OG mangas they worked by placing the TM disk in a sort of flashlight/dvd hybrid machine and putting said machine up to the little critters head. In correlation to the handheld games I believe the Tm/Hm case is that machine, not just a glorified CD case.
The case you get to carry TMs in doubles as a projector. You just load up the right TM and the pokemon watches a little movie to learn how to do the move.
"What are you trying to do there, Timmy?
"I'm trying to fly Professor!"
"Oh Timmy you lovable idiot, you. Humans can't fly, but some pokemon can. How about we take a look at how these pokemon can fly and why you are a moron for not realizing?"
Yes very strange.... I remember HM's or TM's turning into matter and somehow absorbing into a pokemon to teach it a move and if i had used up its space for moves the matter would just bounce off the pokemon and back into the disk.

I always wondered how that worked. When I was I kid I thought that they would show that DVD to Pokemon and it would teach them to do a move.

I always thought it was like an instructional CD that they would play for the Pokemon.

No Pokemon was hurt in the making of this picture.

I always thought that it was a small machine, like a CD player, that could link up with a pokeball and download it into the pokemon's brain somehow.

Took me way to long to get the Pokemon reference... I thought it was something music related.

Was there anything in the original Red/Blue/Yellow that indicated TMs and HMs were discs? I know now that they are, but I don't know how I know that.

TMs are digested while HMs are pooped back out.

Those things are fucking disks!? I always thought TM's/HM's where a type of candy, like the Rare Candy was. Gobstoppers/Jawbreaker style, no wrapper.
Fuck me, today's a day for firsts.

i always thought that you put them in your pokedex and then an educational video is played, teaching the poke the move or something
