A Sleep Style Dex entry for Rattata
The Sleep Style Dex icon

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

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 Halloween and holiday variants of certain Pokémon like Pikachu and Eevee have only two styles. Currently, only one Pokémon, Ditto, has more than four styles, with 10.[note 1]

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

Overturned Sleep

Atop-Belly Sleep

Mud-Float Sleep

Atop-Belly Sleep
#0196 Espeon Psychic Snoozing It bathes in the sunshine during the day and builds up psychic power in the orb on its forehead. It's said to be averse to battling at night, so it might be easier than you'd expect to come across an Espeon deep in sleep.
Foreseeing Sleep

Sitting Sleep

Belly-Up Sleep

Atop-Belly Sleep
#0197 Umbreon Dark Dozing When exposed to the moon's aura at night, the rings on its body glow. It's said to be nocturnal, so it might be very difficult to find an Umbreon sleeping at night.
