Cresselia Joins Pokémon Sleep to Battle Darkrai

Author:Kristen Update:May 14,2025

The world of Pokémon Sleep is about to get a bit more enchanting—or perhaps slightly more eerie. The legendary Cresselia, known for its ability to bring sweet dreams, is set to make its grand entrance, but it won't be alone. The Cresselia vs Darkrai event is on the horizon, promising a two-week battle between serene slumbers and shadowy nightmares.

Mark your calendars for March 31st to April 14th, as this is when you'll have a higher chance of encountering Cresselia during your sleep research. Head to Greengrass Isle, Snowdrop Tundra, or Lapis Lakeside to maximize your chances of meeting this dreamy Pokémon.

Should you be fortunate enough to befriend Cresselia, its Lunar Blessing skill will rejuvenate your team's energy and boost your Berry collection, with the effect amplifying as you gather more Psychic-type companions. Keep in mind, though, that you can only have one Special Pokémon like Cresselia on your team at a time, so plan your strategy carefully.

This event unites sleep researchers globally in a mission to banish the nightmares induced by Darkrai. Between March 31st and April 14th, the lunar duo will be at their most active, with Cresselia taking the spotlight to aid in rescuing Pokémon from bad dreams.

By enhancing your Drowsy Power with Cresselia by your side, you'll not only combat the nightmares but also contribute to a worldwide initiative. Plus, you can gather Cresselia Down, which can be exchanged for unique items such as Cresselia Incense and Biscuits, along with other event-exclusive rewards.

There's also a glimmer of hope: if the collective effort results in enough Event Drowsy Power, you might just have the opportunity to befriend Darkrai itself. Turning the nightmare maestro into a dream team ally could prove invaluable.
