Pokémon Sleep Now Works With Garmin Smartwatches — Here Are the Compatible Models

by

Want to combine tracking your sleep with a bit of Pokémon fun? Now you can! Pokémon Sleep and Garmin have partnered up, letting you use your Garmin smartwatch to track your sleep and make progress in the Pokémon Sleep game. It’s a perfect match for Pokémon fans who want to get a little extra out of their sleep tracking.

Your Sleep Data Just Got a Whole Lot More Useful

Pokémon Sleep is a mobile game that turns your sleep into an adventure! The more you sleep, and the better the quality of your rest, the more Pokémon will visit your campsite. It’s a fun idea, and it’s especially great if you already use a fitness tracker while you sleep.

The app used to mostly work with the Pokémon GO Plus+ device, and a few Apple and Android smartwatches. Unfortunately, Garmin users couldn’t connect… until now! This update finally includes support for Garmin devices.

Which Garmin Models Are Compatible?

Pokémon Sleep works with many popular Garmin watches, so it’s likely yours is compatible. Here’s a list of Garmin smartwatches that have been confirmed to work with the app:

  • Venu 3 / Venu 3S
  • Venu 2 / Venu 2S / Venu 2 Plus
  • Venu Sq 2 / Venu Sq 2 – Music Edition
  • Forerunner 165 / 165 Music
  • Forerunner 255 / 255S / 255 Music / 255S Music
  • Forerunner 265 / 265S
  • Forerunner 955 / 955 Solar
  • Forerunner 965
  • Vívoactive 5
  • Epix (Gen 2) / Epix Pro (Gen 2)
  • Fenix 7 series

Wow, Garmin really has a watch for everyone, doesn’t it? They’ve got options whether you just want to keep track of your daily steps or you’re a serious outdoor adventurer who needs to monitor things like altitude. As a fan, I’m really impressed with how much they cover – it feels like there’s something perfect for any level of fitness and any kind of activity!

How It Actually Works

If your watch works with the app, setting everything up is surprisingly easy. You’ll connect your Garmin account within the Pokémon Sleep app, and then your watch will automatically send your sleep information each morning. You won’t need to use the Pokémon GO Plus+ device or worry about positioning your phone. Your Garmin takes care of tracking your sleep, so you can finally look forward to bedtime!

The idea behind Pokémon Sleep was always appealing, but it didn’t catch on with everyone due to its tech requirements. Garmin fitness trackers already have a dedicated following, and people trust them to monitor their health. Combining that existing technology with the Pokémon world feels natural and makes it much easier for people to start playing.

Forget about buying extra gadgets or remembering to keep them charged. This game is designed to fit into your busy life: simply sleep, wake up, and discover new Pokémon that appeared while you were resting. It’s an easy and satisfying way to play, perfect for adults.
