Pokémon Sleep: Meal Prep Week Vol. 1

Meal Prep Week Vol. 1 is coming in Pokémon Sleep, with a focus on ingredient focused Pokémon!

This week-long event will feature greater appearance rates for helper Pokémon that can gather lots of ingredients required for the new dishes to be added soon, including their Evolutions.

Stufful and Trapinch will appear on Greengrass Isle and Greengrass Isle (Expert) along with certain other Pokémon for the duration of this event.

In addition, 570 Styles will be added to the Sleep Style Dex at the start of the event as a new goal. Achieving this goal will allow you to further expand the capacity of your cooking pot.

This event will help you prepare for 3 new recipes that will be added during Bountiful Banquet Week, which begins on Monday November 16th.

Mini Candy Boost

The Mini Candy Boost uses fewer Dream Shards than the regular Candy Boost function, so even beginner researchers can easily use this limited-time function.

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.

You can freely toggle this function ON or OFF by tapping the button in the upper right of the Level Up screen. Consider using Mini Candy Boost when you want to level up your helper Pokémon.

This function will be set to ON by default during the event.
