Suicune Week: Coming soon
In early September 2024, Pokémon Sleep will host the Suicune Research event.
During this event, you can collect samples of Suicune Mane and trade them for Suicune Incense, which can be used to explore Suicune’s different sleep styles. Water-type helper Pokémon will be especially useful during this event, so it’s a good idea to level them up in preparation.
Water-type helper Pokémon: Squirtle, Wartortle, Blastoise, Psyduck, Golduck, Slowpoke, Slowbro, Vaporeon, Totodile, Croconaw, Feraligatr, Wooper, Quagsire, Slowking, Quaxly, Quaxwell.
They're also planning some features and rewards that will help everyone—including new Pokémon Sleep players—research Suicune’s sleep styles and become friends with it more easily.
Limited-time mini candy boost
The Mini Candy Boost uses fewer Dream Shards than the regular Candy Boost, making it easier for even new researchers to use in Pokémon Sleep.
Using Mini Candy Boost will let your helper Pokémon earn double the usual EXP from candies, though it will cost you four times the usual amount of Dream Shards per candy. You can use this feature with up to 50 candies per day.
This function is turned ON by default, but you can toggle it ON or OFF by tapping the button in the top right corner of the Level Up screen.
You can use Mini Candy Boost whenever you want to level up your helper Pokémon quickly.

- Water Type Week rolls over daily at 4:00 a.m.
- Event bonuses apply only to sleep data tracked during the event.
- If you wait to report sleep data tracked before the event and select “Review Later” during the event, event bonuses won’t apply.

- Event bonuses will trigger no matter where you conduct your sleep research.
