Sleep style

Sleep styles (Japanese: 寝顔 Sleeping face) are properties of Pokémon in Pokémon Sleep.

A Sleep Style Dex entry for Rattata

The Sleep Style Dex icon

Summary

While each Pokémon has only one sleep type, they have multiple sleep styles. Sleep styles are recorded in the Sleep Style Dex (Japanese: 寝顔図鑑 Sleeping face Illustrated Encylopedia). Sleep styles are ranked from one star (★) to four stars (★★★★), with each star indicating an increase in rarity. Having a higher rating for Snorlax allows the player to find rarer sleep styles. Most Pokémon have three or four sleep styles, while the holiday costume Pikachu have two styles. Currently, only one Pokémon, Ditto, has more than four styles, with 10.

Sleep styles may be thought of as similar to sleeping positions in humans.

						★	★★	★★★	★★★★
#0001		Bulbasaur	Grass	Dozing	It sits still and basks in sunny spots, possibly taking a nap. Perhaps it's trying to absorb nutrients from the seed on its back in order to grow up big, even while sleeping.	Sunbathing Sleep	Sturdy Sleep	Vines-Out Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0002		Ivysaur	Grass	Dozing	It sits still and basks in sunny spots, undergoing photosynthesis. Researchers are divided on whether it is awake or asleep while this happens.	Sunbathing Sleep	Sturdy Sleep	Vines-Out Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0003		Venusaur	Grass	Dozing	Unknown	Sunbathing Sleep	Sturdy Sleep	Vines-Out Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0004		Charmander	Fire	Snoozing	When it curls up to sleep, it's thought to be drawing warmth from the flame on its tail. On quiet nights, it feels like you can almost hear the sound of the flame burning if you listen hard enough.	Crackling Sleep	Tummy-Rub Sleep	Tummy-Up Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0005		Charmeleon	Fire	Snoozing	Apparently, Charmeleon sometimes sleeps in a very laid-back posture when relaxed, using its hands as a pillow. It seems its battle fervor completely wears off when it sleeps.	Arm-Pillow Sleep	Seated Sleep	Loafing Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0006		Charizard	Fire	Snoozing	It's been seen looking amazingly relaxed as it nods off, perhaps because it's so confident in its might. The Charizard that you occasionally see sleeping flat on their backs may be particularly strong.	Crackling Sleep	Tummy-Rub Sleep	Tummy-Up Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0007		Squirtle	Water	Slumbering	It withdraws its limbs and head into its shell to sleep. It's said to do this to protect itself while sleeping when it's wary of threats. Apparently, it also sometimes rocks contentedly from side to side.	Sheltered Sleep	Unsheltered Sleep	Overturned Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0008		Wartortle	Water	Slumbering	It remains wary of threats as it sleeps with its body tucked into its shell. But even then, its long, furry tail pokes out a bit. Perhaps it's using the fur on its tail to feel out its surroundings.	Sheltered Sleep	Unsheltered Sleep	Flattened Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0009		Blastoise	Water	Slumbering	This Pokémon normally sleeps soundly, protected by its tough shell, but it's also been seen sleeping with its belly exposed on very rare occasions. Perhaps this happens when Blastoise feels completely secure in its surroundings and falls fast asleep.	Sheltered Sleep	Unsheltered Sleep	Overturned Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0010		Caterpie	Bug	Dozing	On very rare occasions, Caterpie looks as though it has fallen asleep in the middle of using String Shot. It appears that it drools string instead of saliva while it sleeps.	Sprawled Sleep	Droopy-Headed Sleep	String-Shot Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0011		Metapod	Bug	Dozing	It stays still when it sleeps to avoid being attacked. Metapod has been confirmed to use Harden even while asleep, possibly to protect its soft innards.	Placid Sleep	Wobbling Sleep	Hardened Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0019		Rattata	Normal	Snoozing	Its long, sharp fangs grow continuously throughout its life. If it doesn't maintain these fangs, Rattata will apparently grind them in its sleep and wake itself up with the sound.	Face-Scratching Sleep	Slumping Sleep	Gnawing Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0020		Raticate	Normal	Snoozing	Its sturdy fangs grow steadily, so it grinds its teeth even in its sleep to keep them trimmed. But this may not always be enough—Raticate apparently also gnaws on trees in its sleep sometimes.	Teeth-Grinding Sleep	Upright Sleep	Gnawing Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0023		Ekans	Poison	Dozing	It's been observed sleeping with its body all coiled. This is thought to be a way for Ekans to quickly turn its head to intimidate enemies, no matter which direction they attack from.	Coiled Sleep	Springy Sleep	Uncoiled Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0024		Arbok	Poison	Dozing	It's been seen displaying its belly while sleeping. Perhaps Arbok is showing its fearsome markings on purpose to keep other Pokémon from coming near it.	Coiled Sleep	Leaning Sleep	Uncoiled Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0025		Pikachu	Electric	Snoozing	While sleeping, it generates electricity in its cheek sacs. Apparently, it may also discharge electricity while it dozes, as if firing off electric shocks in its dreams.	Curled-Up Sleep	Droopy-Eared Sleep	Electrifying Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0025		Pikachu (Halloween)	Electric	Snoozing	While sleeping, it generates electricity in its cheek sacs. Apparently, it may also discharge electricity while it dozes, as if firing off electric shocks in its dreams.	Curled-Up Sleep	Droopy-Eared Sleep	None	None

#0035		Clefairy	Fairy	Snoozing	Clefairy rarely shows itself, but there have been many sightings on the mornings after a full moon.

#0036		Clefable	Fairy	Snoozing	It is said to sleep in remote places on quiet, moonlit nights. Perhaps it's dreaming about its friends in its distant homeland as it peacefully sleeps.	Peaceful Sleep	Nodding-Off Sleep	Metronome Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0039		Jigglypuff	Fairy	Snoozing	Jigglypuff is always singing—even in its sleep! You must take care not to be inadvertently put to sleep by the sound of its soothing singing.	Seated Sleep	Spacey Sleep	Singing Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0040		Wigglytuff	Fairy	Snoozing	Its fine fur has a sublime texture. Wigglytuff has even been seen stroking its belly while fast asleep—perhaps this fur feels nice even to its own touch.	Smiley Sleep	Startled Sleep	Puffed-Up Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0050		Diglett	Ground	Snoozing	It usually lives underground, so at night, it tends to sleep there as well. If you happen to see one sleep above ground, it may be a sign of good luck.	Underground Sleep	Aboveground Sleep	Mid-Dig Sleep	None
#0051		Dugtrio	Ground	Snoozing	These triplets never get separated and they sleep all together. Their teamwork as a trio stays steadfast even when they sleep.	Underground Sleep	Aboveground Sleep	Cozy-Trio Sleep	None
#0052		Meowth	Normal	Snoozing	Meowth loves anything that shines. If you happen to find it sleeping while fondly clutching the coins it's gathered, just watch over it quietly.	Curled-Up Sleep	Seated Sleep	Pay Day Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0053		Persian	Normal	Snoozing	Even when asleep, Persian's haughtiness is striking. It appears to clean its face and groom itself even as it sleeps, stretching its lithe body with ease.	Elegant Sleep	Sturdy Sleep	Apologetic Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0054		Psyduck	Water	Dozing	Psyduck is always tormented by headaches—its head seems to cause it pain even during sleep. A Psyduck sleeping peacefully, not clutching its head, is a very rare sight.	Headache Sleep	Big-Yawn Sleep	Tantrum Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0055		Golduck	Water	Slumbering	The best swimmer among Pokémon, Golduck has been seen languidly paddling its webbed limbs as it sleeps. Perhaps it's swimming in its dreams.	Arm-Pillow Sleep	Rear-Scratching Sleep	Swimming Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0056		Mankey	Fighting	Dozing	Mankey may rage even in its dreams, as you often see it sleeping with an infuriated look. Apparently, you'll only find it sleeping free from anger on the rarest of occasions.	Angry Sleep	Upright Sleep	Peaceful Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0057		Primeape	Fighting	Dozing	The ever-angry Primeape rages even in its sleep. It apparently sleeps free from anger on very rare occasions, perhaps when it has exhausted itself.	Angry Sleep	Stomping Sleep	Peaceful Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0058		Growlithe	Fire	Snoozing	It is very protective of its territory. If you see a cute Growlithe asleep and approach it without caution, you may end up on the receiving end of some dozy barking—and learn your lesson the painful way.	Stretching Sleep	Sitting Sleep	Belly-Up Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0059		Arcanine	Fire	Snoozing	Unknown	Lying-Down Sleep	Sitting Sleep	Belly-Up Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0069		Bellsprout	Grass	Dozing	When it sleeps with its feet planted deep in the ground, it's said to be taking in water from the soil. Perhaps it feels so safe while sleeping that it forgets that it might need to run away.	Stretched-Out Sleep	Acid-Dripping Sleep	Rooted Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0071		Victreebel	Grass	Dozing	Even while asleep, it appears that Victreebel opens its mouth wide to attract prey with the nectar-like acid within it.

#0074		Geodude	Rock	Slumbering	This Pokémon sleeps soundly, half-buried in the ground. Apparently, it will sometimes stay fast asleep even when trod on by a mountain climber.	Arms-Crossed Sleep	Biding Sleep	Buried Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0076		Golem	Rock	Slumbering	Unknown	Robust Sleep	Imposing Sleep	Rolling Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0079		Slowpoke	Water	Snoozing	This Pokémon is always idle, so it's hard to tell if it's awake or asleep. Even researchers are divided on whether Slowpoke sleeps, but Slowpoke doesn't seem bothered either way.	Zonked Sleep	Dazed Sleep	Goofy Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0080		Slowbro	Water	Snoozing	Slowbro mostly sleeps at the same time as the Shellder biting its tail. Once in a while, though, Slowbro has been found sleeping with the Shellder still awake.	Cozy-Duo Sleep	Drooling Sleep	Tail-Gnawing Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0081		Magnemite	Steel	Slumbering	The units at its side generate electromagnetic waves that keep it airborne. On rare occasions, perhaps when it sleepily muddles the direction of its waves, it does loops through the air while asleep.	Droopy-Float Sleep	Magnet-Rise Sleep	Upside-Down Sleep	None
#0082		Magneton	Steel	Slumbering	The three Magnemite are usually linked by a strong magnetic force. They have been spotted sleeping stuck together and drifting apart. Perhaps their magnetism is unstable during sleep.	Linked Sleep	Near-Falling Sleep	Unlinked Sleep	None
#0084		Doduo	Flying	Slumbering	To keep itself from being attacked while asleep, Doduo's two heads take turns staying awake. You'll only see both heads asleep together very rarely—perhaps only when Doduo feels completely safe.	Lookout Sleep	Lazy-Lookout Sleep	Duo Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0085		Dodrio	Flying	Slumbering	Dodrio usually sleeps standing up, its three heads taking turns so that at least one is always awake. When Dodrio is truly exhausted, it seems even the head that's on watch duty may doze off.	Lookout Sleep	Lazy-Lookout Sleep	Trio Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0092		Gastly	Ghost	Dozing	It always floats while it sleeps—perhaps because its body is 95% gaseous. If you approach a Gastly that you think is fast asleep, it may give you a sudden surprise as it dreams!	Snickering Sleep	Floaty-Gas Sleep	Tongue-Out Sleep	None
#0093		Haunter	Ghost	Dozing	This Pokémon fears the light and revels in the dark. You must never approach it, even when it's asleep. If a sleep-fogged Haunter licks you with its gaseous tongue, it may end up stealing your life-force.	Slumping Sleep	Floaty-Gas Sleep	Tongue-Out Sleep	None

#0115		Kangaskhan	Normal	Snoozing	Kangaskhan protects its child by keeping it in its pouch, even while sleeping.

Parental-Bond Sleep	Synchronized Sleep	Early-Rising Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0132		Ditto	Normal	Snoozing	There have been reports from around the world of Ditto falling asleep while still transformed into another Pokémon. Yet Ditto usually returns to normal when it relaxes, so this is a very rare sight.	Rock-Formed Sleep	As-Is Sleep	Pikachu Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
						Bulbasaur Sleep	Charmander Sleep	Squirtle Sleep	None
						None	Dragonite Sleep	Larvitar Sleep	Glaceon Sleep
#0133		Eevee	Normal	Snoozing	Thanks to its unstable genetic makeup, Eevee can evolve into a variety of forms. Perhaps in its sleep, it dreams about which form it will evolve into.	Curled-Up Sleep	Droopy-Eared Sleep	Energetic Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0179		Mareep	Electric	Snoozing	When Mareep rolls over in its sleep, its fluffy coat of wool rubs together and builds a static charge.

Fluffy Sleep	Pawing Sleep	Blinking-Tail Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0180		Flaaffy	Electric	Snoozing	If its coat becomes fully charged with electricity, its tail lights up. You can see this happen very rarely while it sleeps, too. But be careful—Flaaffy can fire off hairs that zap on impact!	Sprawled Sleep	Fluffy Sleep	Blinking-Tail Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0439		Mime Jr.	Psychic	Slumbering	On rare occasions, it's been found sleeping atop a pantomimed bed.

Outflung Sleep	Upright Sleep	Barrier-Bed Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
#0447		Riolu	Fighting	Slumbering	Riolu is said to be tough and hard-working. The unusual position it takes when it sleeps sitting up—without even lying down—is just how Lucario does it.

#0460		Abomasnow	Ice	Slumbering	Abomasnow sometimes swings its arms even in its sleep, whipping up blizzards. No consensus has been reached among researchers about whether this is a habit to hide itself, or just some sleepy flailing.	Sighing Sleep	Intimidating Sleep	Blizzard Sleep	None
#0462		Magnezone	Steel	Slumbering	Its screws and magnets spin even while it sleeps. It's said that a sleeping Magnezone emits signals of unknown purpose and receives signals of unknown origin, but researchers are divided on this point.	Swinging Sleep	Watchful Sleep	Upside-Down Sleep	None

#0471		Glaceon	Ice	Slumbering	At first glance it may look defenseless as it dozes, but look closer. Glaceon completely freezes its fur, making its hairs stand out like needles, so that it's protected from enemies even while it sleeps.	Arm-Pillow Sleep	Sturdy Sleep	Sprawled Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep

#0760		Bewear	Fighting	Slumbering	Unknown	Seated Sleep	Upright Sleep	Log-Hugging Sleep	Atop-Belly Sleep
