New Pokémon in Pokémon Sleep: Sneasel and Weavile!
Pokémon fans rejoice! Sneasel and Weavile have arrived in Pokémon Sleep, bringing new excitement to your sleep research. This guide explains how to befriend these icy, dark-type Pokémon.
Where to Find Sneasel and Weavile
As you might expect from their dual Ice/Dark typing in the main series games, Sneasel and Weavile appear in Pokémon Sleep's Snowdrop Tundra. However, in Pokémon Sleep, they are classified as Dark-type, not dual-type.
Conveniently, they also appear on Greengrass Isle, making them accessible to all players, regardless of their research island progress. The EZ Travel Ticket allows you to switch islands if needed.
Sleep Types and Evolution
Both Sneasel and Weavile share the Dozing sleep type. For increased encounter rates, ensure your sleep type matches theirs. Sneasel is easier to find initially, evolving into Weavile with 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, you'll still need to encounter Weavile in the wild for research data.
Are Sneasel and Weavile Worth It?
Sneasel's value lies in its berry gathering abilities (Wiki Berries) and its "Tasty Chance S" skill, boosting dish quality. Its ingredient requirements include sought-after items, making a well-equipped Sneasel a valuable addition to your Snowdrop Tundra team.
