Pokémon Sleep: How to Obtain a Suicune?

Suicune, the final legendary dog of the trio, has made its debut in Pokémon Sleep, following the appearances of Raikou and Entei. This Water-type Pokémon is highly anticipated, especially with the dedicated Water-type island in the game. If you're aiming to add Suicune to your collection, here's everything you need to know.

How to Obtain Suicune in Pokémon Sleep

There are two main methods to encounter Suicune:

1. Using Suicune Incense: This is the most reliable way to attract Suicune to your game. Suicune Incense is available during its specific event, where players can also acquire biscuits and other items through the exchange shop.

2. Natural Appearance: This method relies on luck, and catching Suicune this way could take hundreds or even thousands of days. Hence, using Suicune Incense is generally more effective.

Acquiring Suicune Mane

To purchase event items like Suicune Incense and Suicune Biscuits, you need Suicune Mane, a special in-game currency. Here’s how to obtain it:

- Sleep Research: Conducting Sleep Research will yield Suicune Manes, especially if you enhance Snorlax's strength. Increased strength and longer sleep durations boost Drowsy Power, leading to better Pokémon spawns and more Suicune Mane.

- Research Community: Engaging with the Research Community can also help you earn Suicune Manes daily. Higher friendship levels improve your chances of finding more Suicune Manes.

- Purchase Bundles: If you need more Suicune Manes, you can buy bundles from the General Shop. However, be cautious with your spending as these bundles can be quite expensive.

With enough Suicune Manes, purchase Suicune Incense and Suicune Biscuits. Use the incense before starting Sleep Research to increase the likelihood of encountering Suicune when you wake up.

Can Suicune Be Shiny in Pokémon Sleep?

Yes, Suicune can appear in its shiny form, just like Entei and Raikou. However, the chances of finding a shiny Suicune are extremely low. Additionally, the exchange shop has a limited supply of Suicune Incense, so you may run out of it before encountering a shiny Suicune.

The first Suicune you catch will have the same sub-skills and nature for everyone, maintaining consistency across encounters.
