Finally Create TMs Yourself – Pokémon Crimson/Purple Trailer Shows Off New Crafting

In the new editions, you will soon be able to create your own TMs for your Pokémon friends for the first time.

With the new Pokemon Crimson & Crimson games fast approaching for release, more and more new information is coming our way. The new gameplay trailer also showed that we can create our own TMs in the new edition for the first time.

New attacks from the “technical machine” machine

As the trailer shows, there are now so-called TM machines in each Pokémon Center, which we use to create new attacks for our Pokémon. Since TM already means “technical machine”, the game offers us a new machine-machine.

At this point, we can first select two options: “I want to craft a TM” and “I want to exchange LP for materials”.

In order to create TMs, we need items that wild Pokemon drop, either when we defeat them or when we catch them. We also see a few in the trailer, including a Sheinux tooth, Azurill fur, and a Teddiursa claw.

But that’s not all, the LP mentioned are League Points or Lig Points, a special in-game currency. They are also necessary for crafting and can also be exchanged for materials that we still lack.

Here you can watch the current trailer with a total of 15 minutes of gameplay, you can see the TM machine starting at around 4:48:

Pokémon Crimson & Crimson – A new trailer shows nearly 15 minutes of gameplay

The trailer doesn’t yet show what attacks can be produced, but there are definitely the following:

• charm
• thunderbolt
• defense against beetles
• ace of aero
• ice storm

As you can also see in the video, some materials in the crafting menu are still marked with a “???” Mark. It could be an indication that you need to find some items first in order to use them here. We may even need to find recipes or building instructions to create the moves we want.

Also in the trailer: Girafarig finally gets an evolution!

Chic photos and fresh sandwiches

Apart from the new machines, the trailer introduces a few other innovations, such as the new picnic function. There are great similarities with Pokémon camps in Sword & Shield, but this time we’re using drag and drop to make delicious sandwiches for our Pokémon instead of a curry.

Also new in crimson and purple is the camera function, with which we can skillfully stage ourselves and our pocket monsters. You can find more information about it here in our article.

Pokémon Crimson & Crimson will be released on November 18, 2022 for Nintendo Switch.
