Standard TMs (Fast or Charged) reroll the corresponding move slot randomly from the species' move pool. You don't pick — Niantic does.
Elite TMs (Fast or Charged) let you specifically choose from the entire move pool, including legacy and exclusive Community Day moves. They're rare — earned from Battle League rewards, raid drops, and event tasks.
TMs are essential for Shadow mons (to overwrite Frustration) and for unlocking legacy moves you missed. Save Elite Charged TMs for raid attackers — Frenzy Plant Venusaur, Meteor Mash Metagross, etc.
