Get ready for a snowy surprise in Pokémon Sleep! This winter, a delightful holiday event arrives, bringing two charming Pokémon to your slumber party: Eevee in a Santa hat, the adorable Pawmi, and the icy Alolan Vulpix.
When Do Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix Arrive in Pokémon Sleep?
Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix debut during the December 2024 Holiday Dream Shard Research event, starting the week of December 23rd. This event boosts your chances of encountering these new additions, along with various bonuses to aid your sleep research and Dream Shard collection. And yes, shiny versions will be available from the start!
How to Catch Pawmi in Pokémon Sleep
Pawmi appears from 3 PM on December 23rd on Greengrass Isle, Snowdrop Tundra, and Old Gold Power Plant, with increased encounter rates during the event. Pawmi, Pawmo, and Pawmot are all Snoozing-type Pokémon. Achieving a Snoozing sleep type (a light, common sleep pattern) significantly boosts your chances of encountering them. A Balanced sleep type also offers a chance, though less likely.
How to Catch Alolan Vulpix in Pokémon Sleep
Alolan Vulpix, also arriving at 3 PM on December 23rd, is a bit more elusive. It's found only on Snowdrop Tundra. Alolan Vulpix and Alolan Ninetails are Slumbering-type Pokémon, requiring a deep, 8-hour sleep for optimal encounter chances. While a Balanced sleep type might yield results, it's less probable.
Best Island for the Holiday 2024 Event
To maximize your chances of catching both Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix, head to Snowdrop Tundra! Keep in mind that Snowdrop Tundra has higher team requirements, so prepare your team beforehand.
