Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl: Where to find TM24 Thunderbolt

In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Thunderbolt is one of the most powerful electric-type moves. This move has 90 power and 100 accuracies, making it a lethal weapon that almost always hits. There are a few things you must finish before you can gain this powerful move. Here's how you get your hands on this highly effective TM.

Before pursuing this TM, you must first defeat the gym leader of Canalave City in order to gain access to the hidden move Surf outside of battle. Don't worry about missing out on the Surf ability; you'll gain it when you talk to Cynthia's Grandmother in Celestic Town during the story. After learning the knowledge in the ruins, she offers you the secret talent.

You can now sail over the rivers of Sinnoh if you've defeated the gym leader. Return to Valley Windworks if you haven't already. It's important to note that this is the first area where you'll face Team Galactic. On the way to Valley Windworks. When you see the bridge, come to a complete halt. On the sea, use Surf to travel east towards Valley Windworks. Follow the river downstream from Valley Windworks to a little landing. The TM can be found at the bottom of the landing.

Make your way to the Veilstone City Department Store if you want to buy Thunderbolt. The TM can be purchased for 3,000 PokéDollars on the third floor.
