Pokémon Sleep is bringing Cresselia to the roster to fight against Darkrai

The world of Pokémon Sleep is about to get a bit dreamier—or perhaps a touch more nightmarish. The legendary Pokémon Cresselia, known for bringing pleasant dreams, is set to make its debut, and it's not coming alone. The Cresselia vs Darkrai event is on the horizon, promising a two-week showdown of sweet slumbers and shadowy nightmares.

From March 31st to April 14th, you'll have a better chance of encountering Cresselia during your sleep research in Pokémon Sleep, particularly if you're exploring areas like Greengrass Isle, Snowdrop Tundra, or Lapis Lakeside. If you're fortunate enough to befriend Cresselia, its Lunar Blessing skill will help restore your team's energy and secure extra Berries, with the benefits increasing alongside the number of Psychic-type buddies on your team. Keep in mind, though, that you can only have one Special Pokémon like Cresselia on your team at a time, so choose your strategy wisely.

This event is a global collaboration of sleepy researchers, all working together to dispel the nightmares caused by Darkrai. During the event, from March 31st to April 14th, Cresselia will be at its peak, shining brightly against its dark counterpart and helping to rescue Pokémon affected by bad dreams.

By enhancing your Drowsy Power with Cresselia on your team, you'll not only help combat the nightmares but also contribute to the worldwide effort. You can collect Cresselia Down, which can be exchanged for special items such as Cresselia Incense and Biscuits, along with other event-exclusive goodies.

There's also a glimmer of hope: if the global community accumulates enough Event Drowsy Power, there might be an opportunity to befriend Darkrai itself. Imagine turning the master of nightmares into a dream team partner—a potentially powerful addition to your squad.
