Nintendo also announced a new and wholly unnecessary piece of hardware, confusingly named Pokémon GO Plus +, that uses Bluetooth Low Energy technology to link to the app on your phone and offers more accurate sleep tracking. Although it’s unlikely anything similar could happen with a sleep app… I hope. Pokémon GO, which was partly intended to encourage children to spend more time outside and get exercise-quickly saw workarounds and unintended, sometimes disastrous, accidents.
And, no doubt, keen (adult) gamers will be hacking and finding ways to cheat the system within weeks. Is the aim to get children sleeping more, and having lie-ins, or to achieve a higher quality of sleep? It’s hard to tell at this stage. It’s a confusing and convoluted premise, sure, but then again, Pokémon is a global phenomenon and has never aspired to logic or sense. Gotta catch ‘em all, right? The game (if that’s even the right word for this slightly dystopian perspective) takes place on an as-yet-unnamed island, where the player is called on to help Professor Neroli carry out research into how Pokémon sleep. Will you be able to battle with these new friends, or simply snooze alongside them?Ĭertain Pokémon have specific and unique sleeping types-whatever that might mean-and over time, you can collect them. Each night, your sleeping pattern will be classified as dozing, snoozing, or slumbering-different sleep styles attract different Pokémon.Ĭompatibility with other apps and devices ( Pokémon GO, for example) has yet to be explained. And a higher score means more Pokémon will gather around your Snorlax avatar. With Pokémon Sleep though, the longer you sleep, the higher your score will be come morning.
