Hyper Training has returned in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, and it is highly recommended for fans to prioritize Hyper Training their Pokemon. This will greatly enhance their IVs, making them more formidable in both competitive matches and Tera Raid battles.
Instead of utilizing Dynamax, trainers can engage in Tera Raids which pit them against incredibly strong Terastallized Pokemon. However, tackling Five and Six-Star raids may prove to be too daunting without taking necessary precautions beforehand.
Hyper Training is a highly effective method for quickly powering up a Pokemon for Tera Raids. By using Bottle Caps, players can increase their Pokemon’s base stats and IVs. This is possible for all species and eliminates the time-consuming breeding process needed to obtain perfect IV Pokemon.

The non-player character is located next to an Abomasnow and has a yellow, interactive speech bubble above their head. Players can simply speak to the NPC to participate in Hyper Training.
Bottle Caps in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
There are two types of Bottle Caps available: Silver and Gold.
