Spinoff · sleep tracker · iOS / Android · 2023 launch
The franchise's strangest experiment. Your phone (or a Pokémon GO Plus +) measures how you sleep using the microphone and accelerometer, then catalogs which Pokémon gather around your bedside Snorlax. Most players use it as a sleep tracker that happens to be cute. Some use it as the cute thing that happens to track sleep.

How it works
Sleep is the gameplay.
Put your phone face-down on the mattress (or wear a Pokémon GO Plus +). The microphone listens for breathing and movement; the accelerometer tracks how still you are. Your sleep gets categorized as Dozing, Snoozing, or Slumbering. While you sleep, Pokémon gather around a giant Snorlax on a research island.
In the morning you record their sleep styles into a Sleep Style Dex and feed them PokéBiscuits to build friendship. Pokémon you've befriended help during the day. They collect berries and ingredients, which grow Snorlax's Drowsy Power, which attracts higher-tier Pokémon the next night.

Pokémon Sleep has a monthly Good Sleep Day cadence (around the full moon) plus rotating themed weeks. Latest from the official news feed.
Dragon-Type Spotlight Week Vol. 1

Hardware option
Pokémon GO Plus + bridges two games.
The Pokémon GO Plus + device (sold separately, around $54.99) pairs with both Pokémon GO and Pokémon Sleep over Bluetooth. Press the button at night, set it on your nightstand or wear it on your wrist; it plays a Jigglypuff lullaby and tracks your sleep via its own accelerometer so you don't have to keep your phone on the mattress. Same hardware doubles as a one-tap Poké Ball thrower for Pokémon GO during the day.
No Apple Watch, Wear OS, or Fitbit integration as of version 3.5.0. The phone microphone alone works fine for casual use.

FAQ
Quick answers.
Is Pokémon Sleep free?
Yes. Free download on iOS and Android. There's an optional Premium Pass at $9.99/month or $49.99 for six months (14-day free trial for new subscribers) that unlocks unlimited sleep records, a sleep diary, a Premium Exchange shop, daily Sleep Points, and monthly rewards. Sleep Point bundles and themed packs are also sold individually.
Do I need a Pokémon GO Plus +?
No. Your phone microphone + accelerometer work on their own. The GO Plus + is a quality-of-life device: you set it on the nightstand and don't have to keep your phone on the mattress. It also doubles as a one-tap catcher for Pokémon GO.
How many Pokémon are in the game?
About 206 of the 1,028 currently-existing species (around 20%) as of May 2026. Some regional forms are included (2 Alolan, 1 Paldean). Most species have 3-4 sleep styles to collect; Ditto has 10, the most in the game. Starters from Gens 1 and 2 are in; later gens' starters are partially represented.
What's a "Good Sleep Day"?
A monthly bonus event that happens around the full moon. You get 1.5x to 3x Drowsy Power and Sleep EXP, plus +500 to +1000 Sleep Points. Sleep on the night of (or before) Good Sleep Day to claim the rewards.
Does it use my real sleep data?
Yes. Microphone audio (analyzed for breathing patterns and movement) and accelerometer data both inform the sleep categorization. Audio is processed on-device, not uploaded raw to The Pokémon Company. See the official privacy policy for the full data flow.
Does it work with Apple Watch or Fitbit?
Not as of version 3.5.0 (May 2026). Sleep data sources are limited to the phone or the Pokémon GO Plus + device. No Apple Health / Google Fit / Fitbit / Garmin integration.
