An alternative strategy for finding Bottle Caps is by completing Tera Raids. More specifically, you’ll want to focus on four-star raids or higher to get these as drops. However, your chances of finding these raids are low if you haven’t completed every gym.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet also have rarer, stronger Gold Bottle Caps you can acquire through Porto Marinada’s Auctions. While you’re not guaranteed to spot them, there’s a chance you’ll find a vendor selling this item when you visit. You can also find Gold Bottle Caps during the Academy Ace Tournament.
