Pokemon Go Catching Some Z’s Event – Date, Encounters, & Nightcap Snorlax Debut

The next Pokemon Go event is on the way for July 2023, with the Catching Some Z’s event. This event will be a short one, and it is primarily intended as a way for players to celebrate the arrival of Pokemon Go Plus + and the eventual arrival of Pokemon Sleep set to release close to the end of the month.

Although short, the Pokemon Sleep event is set to have a few debuts, with Nightcap Snorlax making its debut, alongside Komala, a new Pokemon arriving to the mobile game. Here’s what you need to know about all the dates, Pokemon encounters, and how to catch Nightcap Snorlax during Pokemon Go’s Catching Some Zs event.

When does Pokemon Go’s Catching Some Zs Event Start & End?

It has been confirmed that the Catching Some Zs event in Pokemon Go will be happening from July 15, 2023, to July 16, 2023. That only gives players a little over a day to play through the event, but luckily it will be happening on a weekend, and that provides a small advantage to such a narrow timetable. Unfortunately, not every player may have a chance to play through the event or earn any rewards that could be available for participating in it, such as catching Nightcap Snorlax.
