Alongside the ever-popular Eevee in a Santa hat, players will have the chance to befriend Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix during the Holiday Dream Shard Research event.

When Do Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix Debut in Pokemon Sleep?

Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix will make their enchanting debut in *Pokemon Sleep* during the December 2024 Holiday Dream Shard Research event, running the week of December 23. This event not only brings festive cheer but also offers various bonuses to help players in their sleep research and gather bonus Dream Shards. The highlight, however, is the increased opportunity to encounter Pawmi and Alolan Vulpix. And don't worry, Shiny hunters—Shiny versions of these new Pokemon will be available from the get-go!

Pawmi will start appearing at 3 PM on December 23. You can find this electric-type cutie on Greengrass Isle, Snowdrop Tundra, and Old Gold Power Plant, with a higher chance during the debut event. Pawmi, along with its evolutions Pawmo and Pawmot, falls into the Snoozing sleep type. While you can evolve Pawmi into Pawmo and Pawmot using Candies, you'll need to encounter them in the wild to study their sleep styles.

To maximize your chances of encountering Pawmi and its evolutions, aim for a Snoozing type sleep during your Sleep Research. This sleep type is light but deeper than Dozing, and it's relatively easy to achieve as it represents how most people naturally rest. The Balanced Sleep Type may also attract Pawmi, but your chances will be lower due to the spread across all sleep types.

Alolan Vulpix, the more elusive of the two, will begin appearing at 3 PM on December 23 and can be found solely on Snowdrop Tundra. Both Alolan Vulpix and its evolved form, Alolan Ninetails, belong to the Slumbering sleep type.

To encounter these ice-type Pokemon, you'll need to achieve a deep sleep, which can be challenging as it requires at least 8 hours of uninterrupted, deep sleep. Like Pawmi, Alolan Vulpix and Alolan Ninetails may also appear with the Balanced Sleep type, but this is less common.

For the best chance to encounter both Alolan Vulpix and Pawmi, head to Snowdrop Tundra during the Winter Holiday 2024 event in *Pokemon Sleep.* This is the only island where you can find both Pokemon. Keep in mind that Snowdrop Tundra may require a strong team, so consider preparing your Snowdrop team in advance to fully enjoy this winter event.
