How To Get Bulk Up (TM064) in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
With the launch of the ninth generation of Pokemon games, trainers have to learn yet another way of using Technical Machines (TM for short). TMs are back to being one-time-use-only items, but a player can create them repeatedly after acquiring the first copy. With that in mind, how does one find Bulk Up (TM064) in Paldea?
Bulk Up (TM064) is in Alfornada, located in South Province Area 6. Head towards the Pokemon gym at the northeast corner of town, and check the right side of the building. A yellow beacon, signifying a TM, is there waiting.
Finding a TM while traveling only grants trainers one copy. Keep reading to learn how the TM can be crafted as often as necessary, along with the materials needed.
| TM | Location (Region) | Ingredients |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk Up 064 | South Province Area Six | • 3,000 League Points (LP) • 3 Makuhita Sweat • 3 Axew Scales |
How to Find Bulk Up (TM064)
Bulk Up (TM064) is northeast of Alfornada in South Province Area 6, to the gym’s right. Enter Alfornada and head to the northeast corner of the town to locate the Pokemon Gym. But instead of entering the gym, check to the right of the building to find the yellow TM beacon.
Ingredients for Crafting Bulk Up (TM064)
Acquiring a TM for the first time unlocks it as a recipe for crafting later. Any trainer who needs more than one copy of Bulk Up (TM064) must have the following materials:
- 3,000 LP
- 3 Makuhita Sweat
- 3 Axew Scales
Defeating pokemon in wild battles or Let’s Go mode will grant you these items, so make sure to defeat any wild Makuhita and Axew. For league points (LP), trainers can earn a set amount by checking any tera raid crystal in Paldea. There’s no need to join the raid for these points.
