When in battle in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the most powerful move doesn’t always win. Sometimes, all you need is something reliable that can strike multiple times. Rock Blast is that move. Only one Pokémon in the game knows it by default, while only a handful learns it from leveling up. So, you have to get TM076 if you want to teach Rock Blast to several companions in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
How to Get TM076 Rock Blast in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
Rock Blast is not a new move in the franchise. Players learned it back during the 3rd Generation, and to this day, it can still come in handy. As its name implies, Rock Blast is a Rock-type move. The Pokémon will hurl rocks at the opponent, striking them anywhere between 2 to 5 times in a row. This is a great move if you need to whittle down an enemy’s HP.
As we mentioned, there are not many in the game that knows this move. To get Rock Blast more often in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, you must find TM076.
There is a rather easy way to unlock this TM: defeat Team Star Fire Crew. Once you do that, you will unlock access to craft TM076 at any Poké Center. By doing so, you can get as many as you’d like as long as you have the materials for it.
You can also find TM076 Rock Blast if you want to teach a companion immediately without crafting it. You can head just north of South Province (Area One) and check at the base of a cliff. We’ve highlighted the exact area in the image above.
