"Pokemon Sleep," the latest sleep tracker app that The Pokemon Company announced during The Pokemon Day 2023 is now coming to Android and iOS devices this summer.
Unlike any other Pokemon games that focus on battles and training, this one highlights tracking your sleep progress while you sleep.
The gaming giant assures that fans will have another thing to look forward to when they wake up in the morning every time they use this entertainment-focused app.
'Pokemon Sleep' Combines Sleep Tracking and Gaming into One
According to Pokemon.com, those people who are having problems in their sleep could find a solution on "Pokemon Sleep."
It's a simple app that allows you to interact with many Pokemon on a small island. You will begin your sleeping with Professor Neroli who specializes in studying various sleep styles among Pokemon species. Snorlax, the iconic sleeping Pokemon from the Kanto region will also accompany you in your new adventure.
How to Use 'Pokemon Sleep'
The company mentioned that for you to record your sleep progress, you need to place your device by your pillow once you go to your bed.
"The longer you sleep, the higher your score in the morning, and the more Pokémon you'll see appear around Snorlax," The Pokemon Company writes in its recent post.
Each individual has varying sleep styles which include dozing, snoozing, and slumbering. By the time you wake up in the morning, you will see a lot of Pokemon who have these sleep styles. You will spot them surrounding the big Snorlax.
The most rewarding part of using "Pokemon Sleep" is exploring a rare sleep style among Pokemon. Just imagine completing a Pokedex, but the difference is that you need to search for more sleeping Pokemon to finish your sleep-style dex.

Tracking your sleep is now made more exciting with this. All you have to do is to hold the central button of Pokemon GO+ and it will now measure your sleep data.
The singing Pikachu will be your constant reminder every morning that it's time to wake up in the morning or take a rest at night.
