Do you find yourself struggling to get energized in the morning? Has the same old bedtime routine grown tiresome? Now, you can turn your sleep into entertainment with Pokémon Sleep! Playing this game is simple: just place your smartphone by your pillow, then go to sleep. Just like that, waking up in the morning becomes something to look forward to!
Your adventure takes place on a cluster of small islands where you’ll carry out research on how Pokémon sleep. You’ll work with large Snorlax who live on the islands and Neroli, a professor studying Pokémon sleep habits.
Rest Your Very Best!
Place your smartphone by your pillow when you go to bed to record and measure your sleep. The longer you sleep, the higher your score will be in the morning. Your nights of sleep will be classified as one of three sleep styles—Dozing, Snoozing, or Slumbering—and in the morning, Pokémon that sleep in similar ways will gather around Snorlax.
You may even discover a Pokémon sleeping in a rare style you’d hardly ever get to see normally. Each Pokémon has several different sleep styles, so see how many you can discover to complete your Sleep Style Dex.
Befriend Pokémon
Not only can you find Pokémon sleeping in various styles—you can befriend them afterwards! After each sleep research session, you’ll move on to snack time, where you’ll be able to feed Poké Biscuits to the Pokémon you encountered. When these Pokémon feel friendly enough toward you, they’ll join you as helper Pokémon. Every Pokémon brings their own skills to the table—not to mention different Berries and ingredients—so be sure to befriend all kinds of Pokémon on your quest to rest your very best. You might even find Shiny Pokémon along the way, if you’re lucky!
Pokémon GO Plus +
Researching Pokémon sleep styles is even easier when you use the Pokémon GO Plus + device, which allows you to keep track of your sleep with the press of a button. The Pokémon GO Plus + uses Bluetooth Low Energy technology to link with Pokémon Sleep. When it’s time for bed, just hold the device’s central button, place it by your pillow, and then go to sleep. Not only will the Pokémon GO Plus + help measure your sleep data, but Pikachu’s familiar voice can give you cute prompts when it’s time to wake up or go to sleep.
Pokémon Sleep Compatible Wearables
Weary researchers, you have another way to track your sleep and study Pokémon sleep styles in Pokémon Sleep—through your smartwatch. Compatible smartwatches—such as Apple Watch, the Fitbit series, Galaxy Watch, and Google Pixel Watch—can now automatically track your sleep data if you wear them while you sleep. You can then meet Pokémon by syncing that sleep data with Pokémon Sleep after you wake up.
Sleep data that’s tracked using Apple Watch can be synced in Pokémon Sleep on iOS through the Health app, and those using a Galaxy Watch, Google Pixel Watch, or Fitbit can sync in Pokémon Sleep on Android through the Health Connect app.
