Version 1.0.13 Patch Notes

New Features to be Added

Version 1.0.13 Update - New Features
・ Changes to allow a player to receive five candies of a randomly selected Pokemon capable of evolving with a Linking Cord when they use a Linking Cord from the bag screen
・ Changes to the research community specs so that when a player receives research data from friends, it will be possible to occasionally receive two candies instead of one
・ Adding new Relaxing Sounds and alarms
・ Adding a notice on the Sleep Research Results screen when the researcher is already at the max research rank (50), explaining that research EXP is converted into Dream Shards
・ Changes to Sleep EXP specs so that, if a helper Pokemon has reached its max level (50), any extra Sleep EXP earned through sleep research will be added to the “Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge”

More opportunities to get Pokemon Candies will be introduced in this update. There are also new additions to the game that benefit Pokemon Sleep players who have reached the maximum research rank or the maximum level for their Pokemon.

Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge

This Sleep EXP Bonus Gauge can be found in the sleep session pop-up if you went to sleep with a max-level Pokemon. It can also be found on the upper right corner of the Pokemon screen if you already have EXP in this gauge.

Earning 500 EXP in this bonus gauge will reward you with one Handy Candy S, and only Pokemon at the current maximum level of 50 will be able to contribute to this gauge.

Game Contents Update

Version 1.0.13 Update - Game Contents
・ Changes to show a notification mark on the home screen’s shop icon, as well as the shop screen’s General Store icon, whenever new bundles are added to the shop
・ Adjustments to the weekly rollover so that if Snorlax have already requested the same kind of food a certain number of times in a row, they will be less likely to choose the same one again
・ Changes to the Sleep Style Dex so that if a researcher evolves a shiny Pokemon, the evolved Pokemon’s shiny version will count as discovered

Those who are trying to complete their list of recipes can rest easy with this next update. If you've been stuck with one type of dish for several weeks, the cycle may finally end with this update!

Shiny hunters will also be glad to know that evolving their Shiny Pokemon will allow them to view any registered Sleep Styles they have of the evolved form in its Shiny color.

Bug Fixes

Version 1.0.13 Update - Bug Fixes
・ On Android devices, the screen brightness within the app reverting to how it was set before sleep tracking, even if the brightness was adjusted after sleep tracking
・ A closeness increase display of “+1” appearing on the Research Community screen for friends who are already at max closeness
・ Some texts displaying incorrectly, such as Pokemon nicknames and numbers of items held

A bug exclusive to Android devices that resets screen brightness will be fixed in this update. Text display errors will be fixed for all devices as well.
