Pokémon Sleep has announce that Version 1.0.13 will have New Features, Game Content changes as well as Bug Fixes. A Maintenance Period will start on November 15th, 2023 at 20:00 and end on November 16th, 2023 at 0:30.

New Features

■ Changes to allow a player to receive five candies of a randomly selected Pokémon capable of evolving with a Linking Cord when they use a Linking Cord from the bag screen.
■ Changes to the research community specs so that when a player receives research data from friends, it will be possible to occasionally receive two candies instead of one.
Note: The higher your closeness with your friends, the higher the chance you’ll get two candies. ■ Adding new Relaxing Sounds and alarms.
Note: You can download them from the sleep tracking screen.
■ Adding a notice on the Sleep Research Results screen when the researcher is already at the max research rank, explaining that research EXP is converted into Dream Shards.
Notes: The current highest research rank is 50.
We are currently working on the development of events and other opportunities to use Dream Shards in a new way.
■ Changes to Sleep EXP specs so that, if a helper Pokémon has reached its max level, any extra Sleep EXP earned through sleep research will be added to the “Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge.”
Note: Each time the Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge fills up (to 500 EXP), you will receive 1 Handy Candy S.
Example: If you receive 100 Sleep EXP, and all five of the Pokémon on your team are at max level, then 500 EXP (100 ×5) will be added to the gauge, and you will receive 1 Handy Candy S.

The Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge can be found in the following places:
• On the “Your Sleep Session” pop-up that displays after sleep tracking. This only applies if you had a max level Pokémon on your team when you finished sleep tracking.
• From a button on the upper right of the Pokémon screen. This is only viewable by users who have some EXP stored in the Bonus Gauge.
Note: The current max level for Pokémon is 50.

Game Contents

■ Changes to show a notification mark on the home screen’s shop icon, as well as the shop screen’s General Store icon, whenever new bundles are added to the shop.
■ Adjustments to the weekly rollover so that if Snorlax have already requested the same kind of food a certain number of times in a row, they will be less likely to choose the same one again.
■ Changes to the Sleep Style Dex so that if a researcher evolves a shiny Pokémon, the evolved Pokémon’s shiny version will count as discovered.

Bug Fixes Specific to Android

■ On Android devices, the screen brightness within the app reverting to how it was set before sleep tracking, even if the brightness was adjusted after sleep tracking. Bug Fixes
■ A closeness increase display of “+1” appearing on the Research Community screen for friends who are already at max closeness.
■ Some texts displaying incorrectly, such as Pokémon nicknames and numbers of items held.

We hope you continue to enjoy Pokémon Sleep!
