Marking its first anniversary, Pokémon Sleep has added the new starter Pokémon Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly to the game's roster. The sleep-tracking app rewards users with points for their slumber, introducing a friendly Snorlax to help lull nearby Pokémon into a peaceful rest. Players can now encounter a variety of Pokémon in different locations, earning sleep points that can be exchanged for helpful in-game items, further enhancing the experience of this unique Pokémon title centered around the restorative power of a good night's sleep.

Pokémon Sleep is celebrating its first anniversary with a significant addition to the game - the popular starter Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly, will now be available for players to meet, photograph, and incorporate into their napping group of companions.

The initial reveal of Pokémon Sleep dates back to 2019, leaving many fans eager to understand the nature of this unique Pokémon experience. The app centers around a friendly Snorlax that has the ability to lull nearby Pokémon into a peaceful slumber. Users can track their own sleep patterns, and when they consistently enjoy a healthy amount of rest, they are rewarded with the appearance of more Pokémon in the area, giving them the opportunity to capture these sleepy creatures and add them to their permanent roster of helpers.

To commemorate its first anniversary, Pokémon Sleep is welcoming the beloved starter Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet - Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly - into the game. A charming trailer showcases the trio sneaking into the player's room to decorate for the celebratory event, with Fuecoco found in a state of One-Eyed Sleep, Sprigatito engaging in Tucked Sleep, and Quaxly in Seated Sleep. Alongside these new starters, a variety of additional Pokémon, including their evolutions, will be introduced to the game starting on July 15 at 3 pm local time, further enhancing the unique sleep-focused experience for players.
