Pokémon Sleep is finally set to launch later this year during the summer, with original plans previously set for the year 2020. It is a mobile game from Select Button which is made to help track users' sleep cycle and highlights characters including Snorlax and Professor Neroli, the Pokémon sleep researcher.
The concept of the app is to place the phone next to you when sleeping. The app will then try to understand users' sleep and categorize that into three different types of sleep -- dozing, snoozing, and slumbering. The more that one plays, the more rare sleep styles for different Pokémons will be unlocked. It is currently set to launch on July 14th and will be available for the price of $55.
