TM 013 is a Techincal Machine that Trainers can acquire to craft Acid Spray, a Poison-type Special Move in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet that reduces the target’s Special Defense by two stages and deals a slight amount of damage. This Move has an Accuracy of 100, making it a highly effective debuff attack for Grass- and Fairy-type opponents. Thanks to its debuff mechanic in Scarlet and Violet, Acid Spray is an offensive Move that Trainers will be able to use from early to late-game battles. The TM recipe for this Move can be found in multiple locations, with one moderately close to Mesagoza.

Finding the Acid Spray TM in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

An early-game location where Trainers can get the Acid Spray TM in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is near the river northeast of Cortondo and west of Mesagoza. Starting from the Grand Olive Orchard in Area Two, players must search for a large rock and a small dead tree near the river to find the TM in a yellow Poké Ball.

According to YouTube content creator GameLoc, another early-game location for the Acid Spray TM in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is the southeastern coastal cliffs of Area Five in the South Province. First, players must start from the Pokécenter at Los Platos. From here, they must travel southeastward until reaching a ruin with an NPC Trainer named Axel the Student. Next, go slightly further to the east to find a small ridge overlooking the ocean with a nice view of Cabo Poco in the distance. Near the ledge, players will find a yellow Poké Ball with Acid Spray.

To craft the Acid Spray TM in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, players must collect the following materials:

  • League Points are primarily acquired from selling wild pocket monster materials at the TM Machines of Pokécenters throughout Paldea.

  • One of the best spots to find Paldean Woopers and their evolved form, Clodsire, is the marshes near the South Province (Area Five) Pokécenter. Members of the Wooper family will typically inhabit marshlands and swampy areas near water.

  • The Electric- and Poison-type Baby Pokémon Toxel can be found in Area Four of the South Province. In other words, Trainers can encounter Toxel anywhere below Cortondo and its surrounding zone.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are available on the Nintendo Switch.
