How to Get the Surf TM in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Some moves in Pokemon have been around since the beginning. For instance, Surf is a classic Pokemon move that, in previous games, was the only way players could traverse the high seas in a Pokemon region. With a change in how HMs work in recent games, players have needed to rely on Surf far less. However, it’s still a mighty water-type move in battle, so you’re probably looking to add it to one of your Pokemon’s move sets. Here’s how to get the Surf TM in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
