Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a Gold and a Silver Bottle Cap?

A Silver Bottle Cap Hyper Trains one stat of your choice: Attack, Defense, or HP. A Gold Bottle Cap Hyper Trains all three.

Which Pokémon can be Hyper Trained?

Any Pokémon that’s at least Good Buddy with you, except Shadow Pokémon. A stat that’s already 15 has nothing left to train.

How long does Hyper Training take?

You have 365 days from the day you start. The tasks get more difficult the higher the IV. For example, the final task for Attack requires you to win 40 raids. The final task for defense requires you to catch 1,500 Pokémon with your Hyper Trained Pokémon as your buddy.

Which Pokémon should I use a Silver Bottle Cap on?

One that already has two IVs at 15. Training the third stat gives you a Pokémon with 100% IVs. Use the “Silver Bottle Cap” search string above to find eligible Pokémon.

Can I move a Hyper Trained Pokémon to Pokémon HOME?

No. Hyper Trained Pokémon can’t be sent to Pokémon HOME. Kanto Pokémon can still be sent to Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee!
