The Slumbering Sands event has kicked off in Pok?mon Go, and with it, several Timed Research opportunities for you to work through. However, the main one is all about using another application, Pok?mon Sleep, with the Pok?mon Go Plus + item.
For those who have the Pok?mon Go Plus + item and are willing to download Pok?mon Sleep, they can unlock several unique Pok?mon. The big one is Snorlax wearing a nightcap, which can appear in its Shiny version. It’s a distinct costume Pok?mon players have been eager to add to their collection, but the Pok?mon Go Plus + item might deter many from getting it. If you have this item, download Pok?mon Sleep to go along with this quest.
How to complete Pok?mon Sleep Timed Research in Pok?mon Go
The only way to work on these various tasks is to download Pok?mon Sleep and track your sleep for at least one day. You also need the Pok?mon Go Plus + item, an exclusive watch you can use to make catching and playing Pok?mon Go that much easier. For many, an item in the range of $74.99 is a steep price to pay for a premium Timed Research event. It’s been the only way to catch a Snorlax wearing a nightcap, but more opportunities for players with the item are always welcome.
You must complete these tasks and the rewards you’ll receive for working through them. The first task requires tracking your sleep for a single day in Pok?mon Sleep. After you do this, the other tasks should become available in Pok?mon Go.
