Want to know how to get TM 069 Ice Punch in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? Probably nothing irritates during a battle as much as the inability to strike back. If you give your Pokémon TM 069 Ice Punch, your opponents will have to experience this feeling. Indeed, in addition to Power 75 and Accuracy 100, the ability has a 10% chance to freeze the enemy. And if you’re unlucky, this attack still deals double damage to Grass, Ground, Flying, and Dragon-type Pokemon. And if this TM is what you need, our guide is here to help you and tell you how to get TM 069 Ice Punch in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
How to Get TM 069 Ice Punch in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
First of all, it is worth noting that, unlike most other TMs, you will not be able to find TM 069 Ice Punch in the open world or receive it as a reward. The only way to get TM 069 Ice Punch in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is to craft it on the TM Machine. In this case, you will need a recipe that you unlock as you progress in the story. And the strangest thing is that the game will not tell you that you have received this recipe.
About halfway through your journey, you’ll find yourself at Tagtree Thicket and encounter Team Star Poison named Atticus. During the fight with this boss, you will have to confront her Poison-type Pokémon. And as a reward for winning, you will receive TM 102 Gunk Shot Poison-type. At the same time, the game doesn’t mention that you also received the TM 069 Ice Punch recipe.
As we said, Atticus uses Poison-type Pokémon during battle. So, prepare a team of powerful Pokémon with Ground and Psychic-type moves, as they will be the most effective in combat. Also, the average level of Atticus Pokemon is 32-33, so your Pokemon should match or exceed that.
