The Legendary Pokémon Zacian joined the fray at the Pokémon Day!
Zacian is an All-Rounder that specializes in melee attacks. Zacian’s Unite Move, Sovereign Sword, consumes Aeos energy it’s carrying in order to unleash a powerful attack to a wider area. Players will be able to knock out multiple opponents at once or deliver a concentrated attack to a single target. Using the right attack for the right situation can give the player the upper hand in battle.

Now comes the next challenge for Pokémon games: bringing fresh entertainment to sleeping!
The core gameplay of Pokémon Sleep is simple: you place your smartphone by your pillow, then go to sleep. Just like that, waking up in the morning becomes something to look forward to!
The adventure takes place on a small island somewhere in the world.
Together with large Snorlax who live on the island and Neroli, a professor studying Pokémon’s sleep styles, you’ll carry out research into how Pokémon sleep.
By placing your smartphone by your pillow when you go to bed, you’ll be able to record and measure your sleep. Depending on your score, the content of the game will change.
Your nights of sleep will be classified as one of three “sleep types,” and in the morning, Pokémon that sleep in similar ways will come gather around Snorlax.
You may even discover a Pokémon sleeping in a rare style you’d hardly ever get to see normally. Each Pokémon has a number of different sleep styles, so discover lots of them by getting a good night’s sleep.
Pokémon Sleep is planned to launch worldwide, excluding certain regions, in summer 2023.
You can play it using just your smartphone or enjoy an even handier way to play using the Pokémon GO Plus + device, scheduled to launch on July 14.
The previously launched Pokémon GO Plus and Poké Ball Plus devices enjoyed great popularity for making Pokémon GO hugely more convenient to play. Users of these devices could play Pokémon GO without needing to check their smartphones–a gameplay experience that nicely suited the outdoor nature of Pokémon GO.
Pokémon GO Plus + retains its predecessors’ functions, while also adding new features that players of Pokémon GO will find even more appealing! Up until now, Poké Balls were the only ball that players could throw at nearby Pokémon with just one button press. With the upcoming Pokémon GO Plus +, however, players will be able to choose which ball they wish to throw in their Pokémon GO game. Great Balls and Ultra Balls will also be throwable! Catching Pokémon will be easier than ever.
