Pokémon Sleep has announced that the Fire Type Week event will take place from Monday, May 6th, 2024 at 4:00 a.m. until Monday, May 13th, 2024 at 3:59 a.m. Players can befriend lots of Fire-type Pokémon!

Event: Fire Type Week

The Fire Type Week event lasts from 4:00 a.m. on Monday, May 6, to 3:59 a.m. on Monday, May 13 in all areas! If you’d like to prepare for the Entei Research event—during which Fire-type Pokémon will be particularly helpful—we encourage you to befriend lots of Fire-type Pokémon!

During this event, you’ll be able to meet Pokémon of various sleep types regardless of your own. In particular, Fire-type Pokémon will be more likely to appear. Also during this event, you’ll be able to use the Mini Candy Boost function, which doubles the effect of Pokémon Candies. It’s a great opportunity to raise your Fire-type Pokémon!In addition, one of the Pokémon that visits during sleep research will for sure arrive hungry!

Note: This applies to only one sleep session per day.

This effect applies separately from the hungry effects of Friend Incense and Good Camp Tickets.
Example: If you use a Good Camp Ticket and Friend Incense together during the event, at least three Pokémon that appear during sleep research will for sure be hungry.

On top of all that, you can get great rewards—like Vulpix Incense—through limited-time missions during the event. We hope you’re looking forward to this!

How to Progress in the Event

Participating in the event is easy! Simply tap the Sleep button before going to sleep during the event period to track your sleep. A variety of event-related effects will trigger during your sleep research.
Note: Event bonuses can trigger in any area during this event.

What is Mini Candy Boost?

Mini Candy Boost uses fewer Dream Shards than the Candy Boost function that appeared before, so it can be easily used even by researchers who are just beginning to play Pokémon Sleep.

Using Mini Candy Boost lets your helper Pokémon get twice the usual amount of EXP from candies in exchange for using four times the usual amount of Dream Shards per candy. This function can be used with up to 50 candies per day.

This function will be set to ON by default. You can freely toggle this function ON or OFF by tapping the button in the upper right of the Level Up screen. Feel free to use Mini Candy Boost when you want to level up your helper Pokémon!
