New Pokémon Sleep Companions: Sneasel and Weavile!
Pokémon Sleep players have a treat! As of December 3rd, Sneasel and Weavile are available. This guide explains how to befriend them.
Where to Find Sneasel and Weavile:
Sneasel and Weavile, typically Ice/Dark type in the main series, appear as Dark types in Pokémon Sleep. They can be found in two locations:
- Snowdrop Tundra: Their preferred habitat, reflecting their Ice-type origins.
- Greengrass Isle: Accessible to all players, regardless of game progress.
Use an EZ Travel Ticket to change your research island if needed.
Sleep Types:
Both Sneasel and Weavile are Dozing type Pokémon. Increasing your chances of a Dozing sleep will significantly improve your odds of encountering them on either Snowdrop Tundra or Greengrass Isle.
Sneasel is easier to catch initially. Evolving it to Weavile requires 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, you'll still need to find Weavile in the wild for Sleep Research data.
Are They Good Additions?
Sneasel's value lies in its berry-gathering abilities (Wiki Berries) and its contribution to dish quality ("Extra Tasty" boost). Its ingredient requirements include sought-after items, making it a valuable asset, especially for your Snowdrop Tundra team.
