Discover Hidden Pokémon: Sneasel and Weavile in Pokémon Sleep

New Pokémon Sleep Companions: Sneasel and Weavile

Pokémon Sleep players have a treat! As of December 3rd, 2024, Sneasel and Weavile are available to befriend. This guide details how to add these icy, dark-type Pokémon to your team.

Where to Find Sneasel and Weavile

Given their Ice/Dark typing in the main series games, you might expect Sneasel and Weavile in a snowy location. In Pokémon Sleep, however, they're classified as Dark-type, appearing at Snowdrop Tundra. Conveniently, they also appear on Greengrass Isle, making them accessible to all players regardless of their research island progress. Use an EZ Travel Ticket to switch islands if needed.

Sleep Types

Both Sneasel and Weavile share the Dozing sleep type. To increase your chances of encountering them, ensure your sleep type matches before conducting Sleep Research on Snowdrop Tundra or Greengrass Isle. Sneasel is easier to find initially, evolving into Weavile with 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, you'll still need to find Weavile in the wild for Sleep Research data.

Are They Worth It?

Sneasel's value lies in its berry-gathering abilities (Wiki Berries) and its contribution to dish tastiness. Its ingredient requirements include sought-after items, making a well-equipped Sneasel a valuable addition to your Snowdrop Tundra team.
