How to get every sleep type in Pokemon Sleep

Dozing sleep type

This type of sleep refers to broken sleep. If you are moving around a lot or if there is a lot of noise while your sleep data is being recorded, the game will think you are waking up a lot and your sleep will be categorized as Dozing type.

If you are a deep sleeper, then you might have trouble encountering Pocket Monsters that have a Dozing sleep type. However, if you wake up to use the washroom or drink water, you will not have difficulty triggering the Dozing sleep type.


Snoozing sleep type

The term "Snoozing sleep type" refers to a somewhat sound sleep in which you may toss and turn a little and make a few sounds during the night, such as snoring, but nothing too alarming.

This is the most common type of sleep in Pokemon Sleep, and you can trigger it if you have a moderately peaceful nap.


Slumbering sleep type
