I planned to play it casually, unlike the time I played Pokemon Go... and then you had to make a video and pull me into optimizing again... Hahaha, I love you, Swagman!!!
Pokemon Sleep is more fun than Pokemon Go. They both have the same amount of Grind, but Pokemon Sleep has a better grind. (Just sleep properly and choose good pokemon.)
I started playing a week ago, and I can say that the beginning is definitely a little rocky. Thankfully, gaining friends was able to help a lot with leveling up my Pokémon more! I’m glad you made this video! I was curious this morning about what Pokémon I should be searching for over others, and I’ll definitely take this into account in the future! (I actually had a ghastly this morning and I skipped it, unfortunately) But I’m really hoping to see this game get more content with new Pokémon! I’d love to see some of my favorites on my team.

Really good video! I've been coming up with a lot of this information on my own as well. Some additional information that I've been computing that you might be interested in: 1. EXP-- natures only give you 82 exp/100 sleep points 2. Energy recovery-- natures give you 90% recovery per 100 sleep points 3. Ingredient neutral natures are an 4:1 ratio, Ingredient++ natures are a 3:1 ratio, Ingredient-- natures are a 9:1 ratio. 4. Help speed++ is +10% help speed (not 20% as Serebii says) and Help-- is -10%. 5. Yes, faster frequency pokemon are 'better' but they might get limited by their carry capacity 'limit'. p.s. I would love to see any kind of raw numbers for showing that 'skill' pokemon use skills about twice as often as non-skill specialist pokemon... and how often that is in real time. I haven't used many skill based mons on my teams so far and my data on skill trigger is VERY spotty.
Nice. I knew about all of this aside from how savage Ing. - nature is, wowza lol. As far as my skill proc tracking has gone, it's hella spotty. My skill focus mons often get 2 a day, sometimes 3. The non-skill mons feel like
@@SwagTips Actually, I've come to realise that ingredient-- nature is actually a benefit for a berry specialist. Ingredient value doesn't change with level, but berry value does. For high level berry specialist mons, you'd actually WANT the Ing-- nature for the higher chance of a berry 'help' proc. Yeah, I'm breaking down all of my tracking 'per hour'... so far I have about a weeks worth of data collection. (But as I mentioned, mostly non-skill spec mons).
Has anybody recorded how much the Skill Seeds improve the various main and sub skills? I want to toss an F2P Sub Skill Seed on my Doduo's "Everybody gets 5% faster gathering", but I'm not sure that's worth it.
wow the explanation on the help frequency helped me a lot, i got a pinsir last saturday and on the last 2 days of the week he gave ingredients like crazy, but so far this week he was giving not s omany, instead it was giving more berries... i get now that he was just rolling berries on the frequency in the end this game is really geared to be incredibly long term to build proper stuff, and the rate of the game is slow in nature so it's just a matter of patience to start growing godrolled mons
Thank you! Yeah, a lot of it is pretty straightforward in terms of value. What sounds good here often is. Hope you like the nature's guide coming up next💪💪
great video, i was looking for a fairly definitive tier list to base some decisions on! i do have a logistics question, though: is it practical to switch out teams throughout the day? i notice that only team pokemon charge up during the night, which leaves any pokemon you used but didn't have in your night team completely out of energy by the next day. many guides claim that switching 3 times is ideal.
Super informative video! Could we get a link to the picture of your tier list? The bottom is cut out and I can’t find it in any of your socials. Thanks!
I was thinking it would be cool to have the same tier list but for each pokemon you also have (on their square) an indicator of their berry (like top left), their possible ingredients (right column) and an icon representing their main capacity (bottom left). That really would make it the ultimate reference sheet for pokemon sleep. And combining that with ingredient stats and lists of dishes and you kinda have the entire game.
It really is a slow-burn type of progression which goes against how I play most Pokémon games. It’s been fun figuring it out. Like the cooking pot point - it was nice to have but couldn’t really fully utilize it (especially after accidentally leveling to 10 extra pot ingredients) BUT I’m just now starting to enter the 20s on my leveling so the excess ingredients are getting really nice. Also I’ve bumped up a few with the 6-ingredient drop skill up to SEVENTEEN ingredients dropped with each skill proc. Yeah, skills are absolutely vital to understand in this one. Now that pot upgrade is hella useful a lot more often when it procs. Same with the Iglybuff family - their Energy cheer is weak as can be at lvl 1 but level 3, 4, 5 become MUCH more influential and useful.
One of the craziest meal teams ive had is Slowbro, Slowking, Arcanine, Arcanine, Magnezone. Between the berries, ingredients, and increased cooking pot, it skyrockets Snorlax into the masterball tier
Brother, you are the hero the people need. I wish I could pay you for all of ypur hard work. From the community and people who dont understand how helpful this information is. Thank You.
@Swagtips I have been around and love the content you put out when it comes to Pokemon Go and now, Pokemon Sleep. I am a Rank 3 trainer in Pokemon Sleep and a Level 45 player in Pokemon Go. I need your opinion on my Pokemon Sleep team consisting of Pikachu, Mankey, Bulbasaur, and Chikorita. Please evaluate my setup and determine what kind of pokemon I should seek out in order to optimimze my early game team setup when you have the chance.
I just follow the bonus berry of the week and try to pair ingredient Pokemon that get stuff for the meal type of the week. Your team will likely change/adjust slightly week to week.
Something I noticed is if you don't get the premium, the only way to level up a pokemon's main skills is by evolving. It may take longer, but for example, I'd rather raise an igglybuff to wigglytuff to get up to 9 energy per use, than to have a sylvion that can't naturally increase their level for free. Small difference in some ways, but I think 3 stage evolutions are just best way to go for free to play players. Like an Ampharos raised up all the way from a mareep will get 1726 because of the main skill being lvl 3
F2P player here! Kinda sad to see that Lucario ranks low. Mine is currently my strongest Pokemon with several strong sub-abilities so Imma bet on that XD
Out of curiosity, how did you calculate mathematically each pokemon strength ? Do you have like docs where you put it down or something ? If you made tiers i guess there's also a kind of individual score for each pokemon. I also ask because there seems to be quite a lot of hidden or vague mechanics in the game, and i son't know where we can actually learn more about them... (like the time it takes for the main capacity, what's the rate for having berry/ingredients, how much do the nature bonuses actually affect the pokemon's stats...)
Bro I'm so tired of this app. It works better when your faking sleep than it does when I'm actually sleeping. Just lost 7 hrs of my sleep session for nothing. I was knocked out. Session was still going when i woke up. Wtf. I purposely ran their energy down all the way because i should have had over 9 hrs. Shit is crazy
I don't think I elaborated on it much, but Lucario has decent value later on. Its frequency and ingredient list is solid, and the dream shard ability might be more useful later too.
I have a starter unoptimized team and three of them are in B tier lol 👀My team is a little bit more favorite based + skills lol. I am already running into full ingredients sometimes which is why I try to get my Magnemite candies, he's one of my favorite Pokemon but the skill isn't always useful at the moment.
Man, I got a Haunter with one single biscuit but it has a terrible nature. Then I got a Gastly.. with the same exact nature x_x But even so, Haunter has proven pretty helpful. I really need to get a good one to power up and evolve!
