Pokemon Sleep has become a highly controversial subject worldwide. Niantic and Select Button's latest venture has sparked intense debates and divided the online community. Supporters argue that it offers a unique opportunity to capture Pokemon, while opponents express concerns about the potential invasion of privacy since it tracks certain data.
First announced in 2019, fans had eagerly awaited the chance to experience this project. Fortunately, Pokemon Sleep is now accessible to most users. Whether you're an Android or iOS user, simply visit the Play Store or the App Store to easily download the app. As with any Pokemon-related endeavor, the enjoyment is amplified when shared with friends.
How To Add Friends
Adding friends is a straightforward process, although locating the option may be a bit challenging since it is not clearly labeled. However, there's no need to worry as this guide will walk you through the steps of adding friends. To begin, start up the application and click on the Main Menu. Once on this page, navigate to the Research Community option and select it to access a new screen. On the top right corner, you will find two options. Simply choose the one depicted in the picture to bring up the page containing your Research ID.
Each player is assigned a unique Research ID that must be used to add new friends. Additionally, there is a QR Code available for easier in-person friend additions. Below the Research ID, players can explore three distinct options.
Scan 2D Code
Enter Researcher ID
To search on Facebook, you have three options. The first option involves scanning another player's QR code, whereas the second option requires you to know their Research ID. Alternatively, you can simply log into Facebook and search for your friends there. Most players prefer the first two options as they are more convenient.
To use a friend's Research ID, players can easily click on "Enter Research ID" and input the desired person's ID. Once entered, clicking the search button will display the person's name. If the information is correct, players can then press the Add Friend button to send a request to the other Pokemon Sleep player.
For those who haven't finished the tutorial, the friends option can be found below the Snorlax on the main screen.
