"[Idea] TMs as options from Buddy System."
#PokemonGO: I'd like to see the buddy system being used for generating TMs. Like this:Upon choosing your buddy, you'd pick between candy or TM.Pick candy and it works exactly as it does today.Pick TM and you are prompted again to choose one of the two moves from your buddy to copy it to a TM. Costs could be something like this:Quick moves: Damage X 10 Km.Charge moves: Damage X Number of bars Km.Or just plain put a fixed cost of 100Km for quick and 200Km for charged. Or any other Km requirements that would make it a big enough hurdle as to not make it too easily exploitable, but also not impossible to obtain.You'd still have to grind, you'd be sacrificing your buddy candy. But at least you could work something out.We'd certainly see a lot of people walking Vaporeons for 200Km to get a Hydro Pump TM in order to replace Twister.Some moves would still be hard to get (Fire Fang, Dragon Claw and Psycho Cut are good examples, as you'd need to have at least one pokemon with that move in order to extract a TM).Of course the TM generated would only be usable on pokemon that can already learn the move in Pogo (so Fire Fang can only be extracted from Arcanine and can only be used on Arcanine).I for one would walk my Dragon Claw Charizard to use the TM on my Dragonite. It would also make me a little less salty about having Dragon Claw on Charizard, since it's my only pokemon that has it.I think it's a fair trade between forsaking your buddy candy, grinding, and getting the TM you want.Comments?EDIT: I'd like to hear what you would walk if this was implemented. Thanks!EDIT 2: Added clarity. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2fEFcig
