As always, players will need to match the appropriate sleep style to maximize their chances of discovering Drampa during research.
Another Fan Favourite Joins Pokémon Sleep
Originally introduced in the Alola region, Drampa quickly became a fan favourite thanks to its unique design and surprisingly powerful Dragon-type abilities.
While it may look like a gentle grandfatherly Pokémon, longtime fans know Drampa can be incredibly protective when its friends are threatened.
Its arrival continues Pokémon Sleep’s steady expansion of available Pokémon species, giving players even more reasons to keep up their nightly sleep research.
Honestly, Drampa feels like a perfect fit for Pokémon Sleep. Its calm personality and laid-back appearance make it one of the most naturally “sleepy” Dragon-type Pokémon in the entire franchise, and it will be interesting to see what adorable sleep styles players discover once it arrives later this month.
