Pokémon Sleep is bringing Cresselia to the roster to fight against Darkrai

Author : Andrew Mar 22,2025

The world of Pokémon Sleep is about to get a whole lot more interesting—or perhaps a little spooky! The legendary Pokémon Cresselia, bringer of sweet dreams, is making its debut in a two-week showdown against the nightmare-inducing Darkrai.

This exciting Cresselia vs. Darkrai event runs from March 31st to April 14th. During this period, your chances of encountering Cresselia during sleep research significantly increase, particularly on Greengrass Isle, Snowdrop Tundra, and Lapis Lakeside.

Befriending Cresselia grants access to its Lunar Blessing skill, restoring your team's energy and providing extra Berries. The bonus Berry yield increases with the number of Psychic-type buddies you have. Remember, only one Special Pokémon like Cresselia can join your team at a time, so choose wisely!

ytThis global event unites players to combat Darkrai's influence. Cresselia's power will counter Darkrai's nightmares, aiding affected Pokémon. Boosting your Drowsy Power with Cresselia on your team contributes to this collective effort. You can also collect Cresselia Down, exchanging it for special items like Cresselia Incense and Biscuits, and earning exclusive event rewards.

With enough collective Event Drowsy Power, there's even a chance to befriend Darkrai itself, transforming the master of nightmares into a valuable team member!
