A fan-favorite Pokémon is joiningPokémon Sleepas part of the game’s Halloween festivities. While not as high-profile asPokémon GOor theupcomingPokémon Trading Card Game Pocket,Pokémon Sleephas a loyal user base and a steady stream of new content. With a new area for players to explore during sleep time and several new species of Pokémon,Pokémon Sleepis keeping the new content rolling by adding another new Pokémon as part of its upcoming Halloween festivities.
Mimikyu is coming toPokémon Sleepstarting on October 28th. The Ghost/Fairy-type Pokémon will appear on both the Greengrass Isle and the Old Gold Power Plant and is a Dozing-type Pokémon. Mimikyu comes with a brand-new ability - Disguise.This ability causes Mimikyu to collect a set number of Berriesplus some Berries that other Pokémon on its team collect. Mimikyu will occasionally get a Great Success with its Disguise ability, which causes it to collect even more berries. A Great Success can only be triggered once after each sleep research.

Screen Rant’s Take: Can Mimikyu Make An Impact?
Mimikyu Has Cool Ability But Could Be Hurt By Lack Of Evolutions
Pokémon Sleepis a low-maintenance lifestyle app that keeps adding new content to keep fans engaged. Not only does the game promote healthy sleep habits, but it also keeps expanding its roster of available Pokémon and adding new abilities and features. I love the idea of Mimikyu’s new ability,which should position it as a Berry specialist.
One big question is whether Mimikyu inPokémon Sleepwill be hurt by not having any evolutions, which tends to hold Pokémon back in terms of their stats and output in the game, but only time will tell whether this affects fans or not.
