Best Pokemon Tier List Criteria

S Tier Pokemon

Pokemon Helper Tiers
Pokemon Sleep - Master BiscuitS Pokemon Sleep - Great BiscuitA Pokemon Sleep - Poke BiscuitB Pokemon Sleep - Bonus Biscuit.C Pokemon Sleep - Eaten Bonus BiscuitD

These are Pokemon that provide excellent help very frequently. They greatly excel in either Berry finding, ingredient gathering, or by having a useful Main Skill that benefits your whole team.

Fastest Pokemon

Fastest Helper Pokemon
Pokemon Sleep - PikachuPikachu
Base Frequency:
45 mins
Pokemon Sleep - RaichuRaichu
Base Frequency:
36 mins 40 secs
Pokemon Sleep - GengarGengar
Base Frequency:
36 mins 40 secs

The first Pokemon you get in Pokemon Sleep is one of the best when it comes to raising Snorlax Strength early on. Pikachu provides incredibly fast help especially compared to other early game Pokemon.

Evolving it makes it even better! Raichu, as well as Gengar, are some of the fastest Pokemon in the game. You can reliably get Berries and ingredients from them frequently, and their Charge Strength S skill can further increase Snorlax's Strength.

It would be optimal to raise both Raichu and Gengar starting from a Pichu and Gastly, so that their Charge Strength S skill can grow to level 3 through evolution.

Best Overall Healer

Pokemon Sleep - WigglytuffWigglytuff Pokemon Sleep - GardevoirGardevoir Pokemon Sleep - PawmotPawmot

Wigglytuff, Gardevoir, and Pawmot's Energy for Everyone skill raises the Energy of your whole team, keeping productivity up! If you raise them from their basic/baby form and evolve them twice, their skill will be at level 3, allowing them to restore 9 Energy every time their skill triggers.

For the Cyan Beach research area, having a Feraligatr can allow you to zip through the Snorlax ratings.

The same can be said for Typhlosion for the Taupe Hollow area, Walrein and Ninetales (Alolan Form) for the Snowdrop Tundra area, and Meganium for Lapis Lakeside. All of them also have very useful Main Skills.

Moomoo Milk is a useful ingredient for all dish types, and Blastoise is the best at obtaining them. Blastoise can also unlock the high-Strength Soothing Cacao ingredient at level 30.

Victreebel is another reliable ingredient gatherer, being able to get several staple ingredients at a fast rate. Vikavolt, a new Pokemon, can get the high-value Rousing Coffee early on, making it very valuable.

Gourgeist can get the new high-value Plump Pumpkin and obtain a significant amount of ingredients each time it picks one up. Flygon is the only Ingredients Specialty Pokemon that can obtain the Glossy Avocado ingredient, making it very valuable/

Ingredients may be harder to come by when you're just starting out, and the three Kanto starters are some of the best sources of ingredients early on in Pokemon Sleep.

Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle all specialize in ingredients, meaning they can pick up at least two ingredients at a time and find them often. They also have the Ingredient Magnet S Skill, further boosting their ingredient-finding potential.

Caterpie is a Berries specialty Pokemon that also has Ingredient Magnet S. This allows it to be an excellent source of both Berries and ingredients.

Other Skills Specialty Pokemon on this list have very strong skills. They perform better than the Pokemon in lower tiers with the same skills but they're not quite as good as Pokemon in the S tier.

Togepi may be a bit of a wildcard, since Metronome triggers a random Main Skill. But this does give you a chance to activate a very strong skill.

The Skills Specialty Pokemon here provide frequent help but cannot collect multiple Berries or ingredients at a time. They also have okay Main Skills—nothing unique or too impactful.

Swablu is a decent Pokemon for the most part, but its Main Skill isn't the best for beginners. Slakoth and Spheal are also good Pokemon all around, but they aren't very fast.

These Pokemon cannot pick up Berries or ingredients quickly. Their Main Skills also aren't the best. However, the Berries and ingredients they do pick up are still of great use especially if they are Snorlax's favorite Berries or ingredients for a recipe you're trying to unlock.

D Tier Pokemon

Pokemon in this tier still have their uses, but not everyone may find them useful. They are not the best at providing general help.

Unfortunately, the Dream Shard Magnet S skill drags down these Skills Specialty Pokemon. Dream Shards are very easy to come by in Pokemon Sleep, especially if you've been playing for a while.

Togekiss's Metronome skill is also too unreliable to have on a team that strives to raise Snorlax's Strength. Togekiss is one of the few Pokemon with access to the Fancy Egg ingredient though, so it has that niche use.

These Pokemon are still useful for the ingredients and Berries they can pick up, but you may find it difficult to get more than a few pieces whenever you tap on them.

It may not be a good idea to use these Pokemon if you're trying to raise Snorlax fast. However, if you find yourself needing the specific ingredients or Berries they have, they can still be of great use to you.
