Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Hyper Training

The Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Hyper Training is a mechanic that allows you to boosts the stats of your Pokemon beyond their limitations. Yep, it makes your monsters pretty OP, as long as you build them properly. That’s not what we’ll be talking about, though. We’re here to explain how to Hyper Train in Pokemon SV, where the NPC that does the training is, and which currency you’ll need.

How to Hyper Train in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

To Hyper Train in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you are going to need Bottle Caps. We’ve written a whole guide on the subject, but here’s a quick rundown. These items are available for purchase at the Delibird Presents shops in every major city. They are at the top of the list in the General Goods menu, at the cost a brutal 20,000 each. Next up, make your way to the snow city of Montenevera. In the vicinity of the Pokemon Center, you’ll see a dude in sunglasses and a beige jacket. He’s standing next to a large pile of snow and, well, an Abomasnow. In other words, he stands out quite a bit; you can’t miss him. You can see where it is in the images below.

So, in order to begin Hyper Training in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you need to pay this guy Bottle Caps (or Golden Bottle Caps). In return, he can increase a stat of one of your Pokemon beyond what their usual limits are. In other words, you can over-train a selection of Pokemon to the point of them being terrifying beasts on the battlefield. As long as you have the Bottle Caps to do it, of course. You can keep track of their IVs and EVs once you unlock the IV Checker. The Hyper Training system itself is pretty simple. You give the guy the Caps and then select which stat of which Pokemon you want to increase.
