There are 7 HMs (Hidden Machine) in Pokémon FireRed: HM01 Cut, HM02 Fly, HM03 Surf, HM04 Strength, HM05 Flash, HM06 Rock Smash, and HM07 Waterfall. To get each HM, you have to use a different method. Plus, you'll need to have extra patience while using all of your Pokémon's abilities. This wikiHow teaches you how to get all the HMs in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
Step
Method 1 of 7: Getting HM Cut
Step 1. Go to Cerulean City and fight the Trainer on the bridge
After defeating all the Trainers (trainers or characters that have Pokémon), head east and fight any Trainers that get in your way. Don't forget to catch any wild Pokémon (Pokémon found in the grass) that you meet on your way.
Step 2. Enter the house after defeating all the Trainers
Inside the house you will meet a Pokémon researcher named Bill who takes the form of a Pokémon. Walk upstairs and talk to him to help him.
Step 3. Help Bill
If you manage to remove Bill's Pokémon costume, he will thank you and give you an SS Anne Ferry ticket.
Step 4. Head to Vermillion City and walk south towards the harbor after getting the SS Anne Ferry ticket
Board the ship and fight all the Trainers. After that, look for Captain. He will give you HM01 Cut. This HM can be used to cut down small trees that block the road. Thus, you can cross paths that were previously impassable.
You will fight Gary on your way to where the Captain is. Make sure your Pokémon is high level and can fight. Inside the ship is a girl who can heal Pokémon
Method 2 of 7: Getting HM Fly
Step 1. Go to Celadon City
You can get HM Fly on Route 16 which is west of Celadon City.
Step 2. Head west towards Route 16 once you arrive at Celadon City
Once out of the city, walk up to the top and cut down the tree that is blocking the way.
Step 3. Skip the twin buildings
After passing through the twin buildings, enter the "secret house" which is near the building.
Step 4. Talk to the girl in the house
He will ask you to keep the location of the house a secret. Agree to his request and he will give HM02 Fly as a gift. These HMs can be used by Flying-type Pokémon to take you to any Pokémon Center you've ever visited.
You need a Pokémon that has HM Cut to get HM Fly
Method 3 of 7: Getting HM Surf
Step 1. Visit the Safari Zone located in Fuchsia City
Step 2. Go to Safari Zone 4 after arriving at the Safari Zone
Enter the house in the area to get HM03 Surf. By attaching the HM to a Water type Pokémon, you can surf on water.
When you enter the Safari Zone, the number of steps you can take is very limited (600 steps for FireRed and LeafGreen). If the steps taken exceed the specified number, you will be removed from the Safari Zone. As such, when you're in the Safari Zone, it's a good idea to try to get HM Surf right away and not catch any Pokémon. You have to pay $500 to enter the Safari Zone
Method 4 of 7: Gaining HM Strength
Step 1. Go to Warden's house after getting HM Surf in Fuchsia City
He'll ask you something, but you won't be able to understand what he's saying. To help him, you must find his Gold Teeth. You may have found the item while searching for HM Surf.
Step 2. Go to the Safari Zone to look for Gold Teeth
After that, enter Safari Zone 4 and look around you for a Gold Teeth.
Step 3. Go to the Warden's house after getting the Gold Teeth
The Warden will reward you with HM04 Strength. This HM can be used to move large rocks that block the path, such as cave entrances.
Method 5 of 7: Getting HM Flash
Step 1. Use HM Fly to fly to Route 2 which is south of Pewter City
In addition to using the HM, you can go to Route 2 via Diglett's Cave. Condition, you must have a Pokémon that has HM Cut to pass Diglett's Cave.
Step 2. Enter the building on Route 2

Method 6 of 7: Getting HM Rock Smash
Step 1. Go to One Island after defeating the Gym on Cinnabar Island
Walk to the end of the island and use Surf to surf on the water. After that, look for a cave called Ember Spa.

Step 3. Talk to the guy to get HM06 Rock Smash
This HM can be used to destroy small rolling stones that are blocking the way.
