Gamify your bedtime with Pokémon

Pokémon Sleep is a free game intended to help players improve their sleeping habits. It doesn’t require an external device such as a smartwatch to track your sleep—just put your device face down and you’re good to go.

Pokémon Sleep turns sleeping into entertainment, and you will be rewarded for getting a good night’s rest. It will involve collecting and training Pokémon characters. There are also mini-games in this app where the difficulty depends on how well you slept. If you’re not a Pokemon fan, you can download ShutEye: Sleep Tracker or Do I Snore or Grind.

Improve your sleeping habits the fun way

Pokémon Sleep is focused on sleep tracking and promoting healthy sleep habits, with a Pokémon-themed twist. All you have to do is to leave your device within reach of your bed to measure your sleep, and the game will provide you with basic data, such as the overall time you spent asleep and the time it took you to doze off. 

The app will use the above-mentioned data to assign the player to one of three types: Dozing, Snoozing, or Slumbering. It will then match them with corresponding Pokémon characters. This is a fun and adorable way to encourage you to become more aware of your sleep patterns and make positive changes to your sleep habits, which are good for your health. The app includes unlockable sleep types, too, such as Aboveground, Curled-Up, and Goofy, to name a few. 

During your waking hours, you can feed a Snorlax and improve its Strength stat. Aiming for a better Sleep Score and higher Strength will result in a better Drowsy Power—allowing Snorlax to draw in more Pokémon. This adds a playful element to the app and helps to keep it engaging and fun for everyone. Unfortunately, you can’t trade your Pokémon, so completing your Sleep Style Dex can take time.

Now available in select territories

Trainers residing in Australia, Canada, Latin America, and New Zealand can now download Pokémon Sleep on their devices and enjoy a more restful sleep while encountering and catching all sorts of Pokémon that are drawn to your sleep type. Those outside of the aforementioned regions have to wait a little longer, though, as release updates will be coming soon, according to the app’s Twitter page.

Unique and innovative features

Despite requiring players to have an external device in order to play or use this app, all in all, the goal of Pokémon Sleep is to provide a fun and engaging experience that promotes healthy sleep habits. It has a unique and innovative take on the traditional Pokémon formula, with a focus on promoting healthy sleeping habits and encouraging players to become more cognizant of their sleep patterns.
