Getting Pokémon in Pokémon Sleep is Unique
Catching Pokémon in Pokémon Sleep is a new twist on the classic game. It’s more work and can confuse players at first. You need to play and sleep in certain ways to catch rare Pokémon.

How Your Sleeping Style Affects Your Game
In Pokémon Sleep, Pokémon appear based on your sleep type. For example, snorers won’t see Pokémon linked to light sleepers. Without changing your sleep, you could miss many Pokémon types.
Leveling Up and Catching Pokémon
You level up your Snorlax each week. This could unlock rare Pokémon by the weekend. To catch them, sleep first. Upon waking, find Pokémon that appeared overnight. Add them to your Sleeping Pokédex.
Once they wake up, pick Pokémon for your party. Feed them Pokéball Cookies to catch them. These can be bought with real money or found in the game. When a Pokémon reaches level 1, it’s yours forever.
This method also works for shiny Pokémon. So, keep an eye out for those rare finds.
Conclusion
Understanding Pokémon Sleep takes time. How you sleep and play decides what Pokémon you’ll see. Make sure to level up your Snorlax and have enough Pokéball Cookies. Catching Pokémon in your sleep is a new, exciting challenge!
