What are Helper Pokemon in Pokemon Sleep?

In Pokemon Sleep, Helper Pokemon are five species that collect Berries and ingredients for you to cook meals for Snorlax and power it up.

It is important for players to select the right Helper Pokemon to power up Snorlax quickly in the game.

How to select Helper Pokemon in Pokemon Sleep

Pokemon Sleep players can select Helper Pokemon by checking specialties such as skills, effects, Berries, and ingredients of each Pokemon, and finding a good balance among them.

You can find this by giving equal priority to all specialties while making sure that none of them are left out for Snorlax. We recommend selecting Pokemon with Charge Strength as the main skill, and Skill Level Up or Skill Trigger as sub skills. With this, you can power up Snorlax’s strength to anywhere between 200 and 800.
