Where Can You Get Sneasel and Weavile in Pokémon Sleep?

True to their dual Ice/Dark typing in the main series games, you'll find Sneasel and Weavile chilling at Snowdrop Tundra in Pokémon Sleep. However, in Pokémon Sleep, they're classified as Dark-type Pokémon. This means no dual typing here.

But don't worry if you haven't unlocked Snowdrop Tundra yet! Both Sneasel and Weavile also appear on the starting island, Greengrass Isle, ensuring all players have a chance to encounter these new additions. If you've chosen a different island for the week, remember you can use an EZ Travel Ticket to switch your research location.

Sneasel and Weavile Sleep Types in Pokémon Sleep

Both Sneasel and its evolution, Weavile, are Dozing-type Pokémon. This means your chances of encountering them at Snowdrop Tundra or Greengrass Isle significantly increase if you're experiencing a Dozing sleep type during your research.

Sneasel, being the first evolution, is generally easier to find during Sleep Research. Evolving it into Weavile requires 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, you'll still need to encounter Weavile in the wild to collect Sleep Research data for it.
