5 Pokemon Missing From Pokemon Sleep

Pokemon Sleep is a game that allows players to befriend Pokemon while catching up on their Zzzs. In this game, players are able to befriend a plethora of Pokemon. Added to this, the game also manages to track your sleeping habits in a way that is helpful and intuitive. This can be thought of as the PokemonGO for rest. That said, the game's roster seems to be lacking a few Pokemon that fans have taken note of. That said, here are our picks for the 5 Pokemon Missing From Pokemon Sleep. 

5. Darkrai

Starting off our list of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep, we have one of the most powerful, Darkrai. Darkrai is a Pokemon with immense power, but also a Pokemon whose lore deals with dreams. This makes their exclusion from Pokemon Sleep rather noticeable. This shadow-like creature is one of the Pokemon that has access to the move Bad Dreams, which, would be a perfect reason to include them in the game. This Pokemon has even gone on to achieve mythical status in the world's lore, so leaving out such a big name is something that many Pokemon faithful are sure to notice.

Perhaps it is due to the fact that this Pokemon is part of a later generation that it wasn't included, although this is likely not the case. Another culprit as to why this Pokemon missed the roster could potentially be its design. This is because Darkrai has a rather menacing design, and perhaps the developers behind Pokemon Sleep didn't want to include such characters. No matter the reason, Darkrai is certainly one of the 5 Pokemon that are missing from the Pokemon Sleep roster.

4. Abra

Another noticeable absence from Pokemon Sleep, which is a bit more confusing is Abra. Abra is a Psychic-type Pokemon that is generally considered to be adorable. This makes the design less of a potential reason for its exclusion from the game. Additionally, the Pokemon is part of the first generation, so it not being with its Gen-1 brethren is a little weird. That isn't to say that there can't be many reasons for Abra's exclusion, but it just seems like such an odd choice to leave out.

One aspect of Abra's character that would make it a perfect fit for the game is the fact that Abra sleeps for an alarming eighteen hours a day. And, in a game about sleep revolving around sleep schedules and types. This definitely seems like a Pokemon they would pick up as part of their roster. However, as of writing this article, this isn't the case, and Abra, among other Pokemon, is noticeably left out of the game. It is for these reasons we consider it one of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep.

3. Drowzee

Staying somewhat in the same vein for our next entry, here we have Drowzee. Much like Abra, Drowzee is a Psychic-type Pokemon, but Drowzee is specifically stated to visit people in their dreams. This makes it rather odd that they aren't included in the Pokemon Sleep roster. However, with their design being a tad more on the frightening side, perhaps this played a hand in their exclusion from the game. Being included as part of the first generation of Pokemon, however, would make you think that this one would be included.

Whatever the reason for their exclusion may be. Drowzee has quite a few interesting moves that could very well play into its inclusion later down the road. Drowzee after all, is the Dream Eater, so perhaps they wouldn't want them eating the dreams of Pokemon Sleep fans. There are quite a few fun facts about this Pokemon that make it interesting enough to be an inclusion however, such as how its nose twitches when it detects a dreamer nearby. All around, Drowzee is certainly one of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep.

2. Munna

Switching things up considerably, our next entry on our list of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep is Munna. Munna, for those unaware, is a Psychic-type Pokemon with an adorable design. This design is one that would fit right in with the cozy entries within Pokemon Sleep. However, this adorable-looking Pokemon is noticeably missing from the roster. This could be due to the fact that they weren't introduced into the Pokemon franchise until later on down the line. Or perhaps some other reason altogether. Perhaps they can be added later on down the line which would make room for its inclusion.

One interesting aspect of Munna's character comes straight from their Pokedex entry. The Pokedex entry reads, that Munna appears beside people's pillows, which would make it fit wonderfully with the theme of Pokemon Sleep. Additionally, this Pokemon glows, would allow for some really cool effects within the game, or perhaps a Munna nightlight. No matter the reasons for their exclusion, the case for their inclusion is one that is easy to make. Therefore, Munna is one of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep.

1. Wooloo

Rounding out our list of the 5 Pokemon missing from Pokemon Sleep, we have Wooloo. Now, if there is any Pokemon on this list that you could argue deserves to be in the Pokemon game about sleeping it's Wooloo. The adorable Sheep-Pokemon would fit in just fine right alongside the other Sheep-Pokemon Mareep. This would give some variety to the sheep that players are able to count while playing Pokemon Sleep. However, it would appear that Wooloo is noticeably absent from the game as of now.

And while we could understanding not including their more intimidating evolution Dubwool, Wooloo could absolutely shine here. Even within the Pokemon‘s Pokedex entry, the Wooloo has an ability called Fluffy, which would fit the theme very well. Also, the Pokemon‘s adorable design is easily one of the most recognizable. And it would definitely serve to move a lot of Wooloo merch. So its exclusion from the game is somewhat baffling, to be honest. Altogether, it just seems like such an odd choice by Pokemon Sleep to leave this precious Sheep-Pokemon out of our dreams.
