Where Can You Get Sneasel and Weavile in Pokemon Sleep?
As their mainline series dual Ice and Dark typing might suggest, Sneasel and Weavile can be found at Snowdrop Tundra in *Pokémon Sleep.* However, in this game, they are categorized solely as Dark types, as dual typing is not supported.
For those who haven't yet unlocked Snowdrop Tundra, there's good news: Sneasel and Weavile are also available on the starter island, Greengrass Isle. This means all players have a chance to study these new additions, regardless of their current game progress.
If you've chosen a different island for the week but want to encounter these new Pokémon, you can use the EZ Travel Ticket item to switch your research location to either Snowdrop Tundra or Greengrass Isle, where Sneasel and Weavile appear.
Sneasel and Weavile Sleep Types in Pokemon Sleep
As the initial form, Sneasel is easier to encounter during Sleep Research. To evolve it into Weavile, you'll need 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw item. Even after evolving, you'll still need to encounter Weavile in the wild to gather more Sleep Research data.

Sneasel Debut Bundle in Pokemon Sleep
The Pokémon Befriending Bundle (Sneasel) Vol. 1 is available in the Pokémon Sleep store from December 3 until December 9, 2024. You can purchase it in the General Store for 1,500 Gems.
This bundle includes several biscuits to aid in befriending Pokémon, along with 2 Sneasel Incense and 60 Sneasel Candy.
The Incense ensures that one Sneasel will appear during your Sleep Research, but it can only be used on islands where Sneasel naturally appears. If you're determined to add Sneasel to your collection immediately, this bundle is your best bet.
Pokémon GO is available on iOS and Android.
