Pok\u00e9mon Go Hyper Training explained<\/p>\n

Hyper Training will be released in Pok\u00e9mon Go on Monday 23rd June at 10am (local time), alongside the Ancient Recovered event and Go Pass Deluxe: Ancients Recovered. It will give you the chance to increase all of the IV stats of a chosen Pok\u00e9mon. (Though doing so is going to take some work!)<\/p>\n

Once released, you must meet these requirements if you want to Hyper Train a Pok\u00e9mon:<\/p>\n

We’ve got a whole guide on how to get a Gold Bottle Cap<\/a>, so have a read if you want to learn more. It’s important to note, however, that Gold Bottle Caps are rare items in Pok\u00e9mon Go and will only be given out on special occasions in a similar manner to Master Balls<\/a>. Due to this, you’ll want to pick which Pok\u00e9mon you Hyper Train wisely!<\/p>\n

Making a Pok\u00e9mon a Good Buddy is, thankfully, incredibly easy as they only need one Heart to achieve this state. If your chosen trainee Pok\u00e9mon isn’t already at this level, all you have to do is make them your buddy before either playing with them once, taking one photo<\/a> or feeding them three berries<\/a> to get this first heart.<\/p>\n

Once you’ve met both of these requirements, give your trainee Pok\u00e9mon the Gold Bottle Cap to begin Hyper Training!<\/p>\n

From this point onwards, Hyper Training will last 365 days (a year)<\/strong>. You can set Training Goals by selecting how much you want to increase its Attack, Defense and HP IV stats by. (Very useful if you’re planning on using it in the Go Battle League<\/a>!) These goals can be changed if you so wish.<\/p>\n

How to Hyper Train in Pok\u00e9mon Go: Training Tasks explained<\/p>\n

Hyper Training is divided into three types of Training Tasks, with each type based around a specific IV stat – Attack, Defense and HP.<\/p>\n

Each Training Task challenges you to complete a specific type of Pok\u00e9mon Go activity and completing it results in an increase for the IV stat it’s connected to. The amount of tasks and their difficulty depends on how much you want to increase an IV stat by. Increasing the Attack IV from 14 to 15, for example, is going to be a quicker process compared to increasing it from zero to 15.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the Training Task types and what you can expect to do for each one:<\/p>\n
