TM 088 Swords Dance is one of the TMs in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet you use to teach your Pokémons various moves they won’t normally learn. It is a normal-type TM, and only certain Pokémon types can learn this move. When a Pokémon uses this move, its Attack stat rises sharply, and every next attack after does a lot more damage than its usual output. The move does not have Power or Accuracy stats, and it has 20 PP. To craft TM 088 Swords Dance, you must gather its crafting materials, and here is how you can do that.
