New Pokémon Arrive in Pokémon Sleep: Sneasel and Weavile!
Pokémon fans rejoice! New Pokémon have arrived in Pokémon Sleep, adding excitement to the sleep-tracking game. As of December 3rd, 2024, Sneasel and its evolution, Weavile, are available for befriending.
Where to Find Sneasel and Weavile
These Ice/Dark-type Pokémon (Dark-type only in Pokémon Sleep) can be found in two locations:
- Snowdrop Tundra: Their primary habitat, reflecting their Ice-type origins in the main series games.
- Greengrass Isle: Accessible to all players, regardless of game progress.
If you're not currently researching on either of these islands, the EZ Travel Ticket allows you to switch locations.
Sleep Types and Evolution
Both Sneasel and Weavile possess the Dozing sleep type. Optimizing your sleep type to "Dozing" significantly increases your chances of encountering them. Sneasel is easier to find initially, evolving into Weavile with 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, wild Weavile encounters are still necessary for complete Sleep Research data.
Are Sneasel and Weavile Valuable?
Sneasel's value lies in its berry-gathering capabilities (Wiki Berries) and its contribution to "Extra Tasty" dishes. Its ingredient requirements include sought-after items, making a well-equipped Sneasel a valuable addition to your Snowdrop Tundra team.
