Pokémon Sleep
Pokémon Sleep has entered its short open beta and we are starting to delve into the details of the game with details to come over the coming days, ahead of its launch. This post will be updated with discoveries and page updates so be sure to keep checking. The beta forbids screenshots and video from being shared so coverage is limited until launch
It appears that Shiny versions of Pokémon will be available within the game
Edit @ 10:50: Each Pokémon you find has a Main Skill and certain Sub Skills that unlock as you level up your Pokémon. These Sub Skills are different between each Pokémon of the same species so if you have two different Pikachu, they will have a different set of Sub Skills that unlock. They also find different items with different levels that unlock them meaning building a team of multiple of the same Pokémon can be beneficial
