Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are the latest entries in the franchise and have features that make even competitive battling much easier to get into.
One of the mechanics that returns in these games is Hyper Training, which can be done by using Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps to max out your Pokemon's stats. They were previously much rarer but the newest entries in the series have made them easier to get.
Using Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps to max out your Pokemons' stats is a huge boost, particularly to your raiding parties or even competitive multiplayer matches.
This guide aims to teach the basics of how to Hyper Train and where to get Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps, according to CBR.
How To Find Bottle Caps
The first thing you need to Hyper Train is to get some Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps. The main difference between the two is that regular Bottle Caps raise one of a Pokemon's stats to the max while Gold Bottle Caps raise all of their stats at the same time.
The simplest way to get Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps is by buying them at stores where they are available or bidding for them in auctions whenever they are offered. Each Bottle Cap is worth 20,000 PokeDollars.
You can also complete the Academy Ace Tournament for a chance to get Bottle Caps and Five- and Six-Star Tera Raids can also drop them.
How To Get Gold Bottle Caps
Gold Bottle Caps, which are much more useful than regular Bottle Caps, cannot be purchased in stores for PokeDollars. The only ways to get these are through the Academy Ace Tournament or through the Auction House in Porto Marinada.
Where To Hyper Train
Now that you have your Bottle Caps and Gold Bottle Caps, it's time to make your Pokemon even more powerful than they are. In order to use these items, you need to travel to Montenevera and talk to an NPC next to the Pokemon Center, said Dexerto.
This particular NPC is standing beside an Abomasnow and has a yellow, interactive speech bubble above his head, making him easy to spot. After speaking with him, you'll get to choose which Pokemon and which of its stats you want to max out.
Use the Judge Function
After progressing through the story in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, players will be able to access the Judge function. This neat little mechanic allows you to check your Pokemons' stats and see their potential.
Checking all of your Pokemons' stats can help you determine which one actually needs Bottle Caps or Gold Bottle Caps to get stronger.
Some Pokemon have no need for all of their stats, which makes using Gold Bottle Caps on them less of a priority, according to The Gamer.
