Raikou Bolts In With Pokemon Sleep’s Newest Event
With the recent announcement from Pokemon Day, Pokemon Sleep is adding its very first Legendary Pokemon with Raikou. Raikou’s event will allow players to befriend the thunder Pokemon, tackle exclusive weekly missions, and earn new items.
Raikou will be the first Legendary Pokemon added to Pokemon Sleep. Raikou will be appearing in Greengrass Isle and players will have to collect Raikou Mane that can be exchanged for Raikou Incense alongside Raikou Biscuits. The Raikou Incense, but especially the Raikou Biscuits, will make it easier to lure and befriend Raikou during daily research, while Raikou Biscuits will increase Raikou’s friendship an immense amount compared to regular Poke Biscuits. During the event, other Electric-type Pokemon will also appear at an increased rate such as Pikachu, Raichu, Mareep, and Jolteon.
To obtain Raikou Mane, players will have to complete special weekly missions that will reward Raikou Mane. Raikou’s sleep style will be Snoozing and its exclusive main skill is Helper Boost (Electric). Helper Boost (Electric) works by having different species of Electric-type Pokemon on your team, and this will then increase the amount of berries and ingredients earned through Raikou’s Helper Boost.
