Pokemon Sleep is a sleep analysis game available on Android and iOS

Pokemon Sleep, revealed during Monday’s Pokemon Presents Live Stream, is a sleep analysis game that will be released this summer on Android and iOS. We’ve waited a while for this one – The Pokemon Company first hinted back in 2019.

You play by placing your phone next to your pillow when you go to bed, so it can record and measure your sleep. The longer you sleep, the higher your score will be in the morning, and the more Pokemon will have gathered around the sleeping legend (and Pokemon Sleep mascot) Snorlax.

Your sleep will be categorized into one of three styles – snooze, snooze, or snooze – and Pokémon that sleep the same way will appear in the morning. Each Pokemon has a number of different sleep styles to discover and connect to your sleep style dex.

Those who prefer not to put their phone near their pillow will also be able to use the Pokemon Go Plus+ accessory, which connects to Pokemon Sleep via Bluetooth. Once connected, you hold down the center button of the device, place it near your pillow, and sleep. In addition to measuring your sleep, a Pikachu voice can tell you when it’s time to wake up or go to sleep.

Like the Pokemon Go Plus device released in 2016, it’s compatible with Pokemon Go – you can use it to spin Pokestops and catch Pokemon in the hugely popular mobile game. Linking the new device to Pokemon Go will allow you to catch an adorable Snorlax wearing a nightcap.

A future update will also let you use Pokemon Sleep data in Pokemon Go, but it’s unclear what that data will do.

Pokemon Sleep hasn’t had a firm release date, but the Pokemon Go Plus+ is out on July 14 – it’s likely the app will arrive around the same time this summer.
