PokemonGo Exclusive Move List

Exclusive moves (or sometimes called Elite TM moves)
Are moves that are not part of the everyday move pool in PokemonGo
They are only available via Elite TM or waiting for an event to evolve

There is a small chance these moves will come back in the future.
for example community day moves can come return in December via evolution.
or sometimes raids / evolution events can re-release a moves. Read more

the @Special keyword search should also show these moves
with the addition of Legacy moves that are no longer possible to aquire at all

The page below is dynamically populated from the GAME MASTER file
I take an extract of the GAME MASTER once a week to update this page.

Exclusive Move FAQ

What are Exclusive Moves?

Elite TM moves are Pokemon that know attacks that are no longer possible to learn without using Elite TMs. The only way to have an Elite TM move is to have obtained that Pokemon during the special event it occured within or caught that Pokemon before the moveset got removed from the everyday moveset list Elite TM moves can be created for different reasons we will discuss below.

How are Elite TM Moves created?

Niantic has created Elite TM moves in a variety of ways in the past. Some Pokemon moves get changed and swapped out for balancing purposes. When A move is either too powerful, or not strong enough compared to every other Pokemon the moves sometimes get changed to make the game game more balanced for PVP or Raids

'Limited-time' moves are popular with Niantic, to be released as part of events (like Community day and raid days). These moves can tend to be more powerful, in hopes that more people will play during this time to unlock the special move.

What about Legacy moves?

Legacy moves are even rarer again
They cannot be gained via Elite TMs and sit in a different list
Read more here : Legacy Move list

How do you get Elite TM Moves?

- Niantic releases them as a special event
- A moveset re-shuffle occurs
- Receive one in a trade
- Own a copy of that Pokemon before it was a Special Move

How does the list work?

Each move listed has a date upon which it became unobtainable. If you played the game a long time ago, or played during a recent event, you may have some Pokemon with Elite TM moves. Use this list to see which Pokemon you might have that are considered collectable

What are some misconceptions about Elite TM?

Elite TM moves can NOT be created by:
- Evolving an old Pokemon
- Using a TM on an old Pokemon
- Evolving a legacy / Elite TM Pokemon


Why should I care about Elite TM moves??

Some Special moves can be better in battle
The most desirable thing about Special moves are that you can not get them anymore.
People also like to keep them because they are collectors items.

Which Elite TM moves are actually good?

All Elite TM Pokemon are collectors items
Below are the generally agreed upon legacy moves that are considered superior:

The Best Elite TM Moves for Raids and Gym Battles

- Gengar with Lick
Low survivability but one of the highest DPS Pokemon in game
Note that Genar recently had Shadow Claw re-added as a move, which is just as good!

- Venusaur, Meganium or Sceptile with Frenzy Plant
Community Day Moveset, one of the highest grass DPS combinations in the game

- Charizard, Typhlosion or Blaziken with Blast Burn
Community Day Moveset, best budget fire type attackers - bested by Moltres

- Tyranitar with Smack Down
Community Day Moveset, Top 3 damage for Rock type attackers

- Omastar with Rock Throw & Rock Slide
This is a rare moveset, but with new Rock attackers added to the game not really the best anymore. Similar usage as Smack Down Tyranitar

- Moltres with Sky Attack
Moltres now has access to a Flying quick move, making this DPS amazing for Flying Damage

- Mewtwo with Shadow Ball
One of the highest Ghost type DPS

- Metagross with Meteor Mash
Highest steel type DPS also a Community day moveset

- Fraligatr and Swampert with Hydro Cannon
One of the highest non-legnedary Water type DPS

Best Elite TM Moves for PVP & Trainer Battles

- Lapras with Ice Shard, Ice Beam, Dragon Pulse
Bulky Ice type attacker with emphasis on moves with quick charge times
