With the release of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, players are making their way across the Paldea region and finding lots of new Pokemon and items during their adventures.

What are TMs in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

TMs, or Technical Machines are one-time use items that can teach a move to any Pokemon that is able to learn it. Many powerful moves can be trained on Pokemon using these TMs, however, once used, they will disappear from the player’s inventory.

The good news is that TMs can be crafted in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. This can be done at any one of the Pokemon Centers using the TM Machine. However, to craft a TM, players must have first acquired it previously in order to see the recipe. 

In order to craft the TM however, players must have the right recipe to do so. Venonat Fangs are one of these ingredients. These can seem elusive at first, but if trainers know where to look, they can quickly build up their supply.

Finding Venonat Fangs in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Venonat Fangs, like their name suggests, come from the Pokemon Venonat. This is a round, gnat-like creature that makes its home in a few areas of the game. To find Venonat, players must make their way to one of the following areas:

  • East Province (Area 1 and Area 2)
  • North Province (Area 1 and Area 2)
  • Tagtree Thicket

Once inside of any of these areas, simply search for the Venonat and start a battle with it. Since Venonat is a Bug-type Pokemon, using a Fire, Flying, or Rock-type Pokemon will make the battle go much quicker.

After defeating the Venonat, it will sometimes drop the Venonat Fangs. Trainers can defeat many Venonats in the area, and then go back to the Pokemon Center to craft the TM using their newfound materials.
