Where to Find Sneasel and Weavile in *Pokémon Sleep*?
Given their dual Ice/Dark typing in the main series games, you might expect Sneasel and Weavile in a snowy location. In Pokémon Sleep, however, they're classified as Dark-type Pokémon. You'll find them at Snowdrop Tundra. Conveniently, they also appear on Greengrass Isle, making them accessible to all players regardless of their research island progress. If you're on a different island and eager to encounter them, use an EZ Travel Ticket to switch your research location.

Both Sneasel and Weavile share the Dozing sleep type. This means your chances of encountering them on Snowdrop Tundra or Greengrass Isle significantly increase if you also have a Dozing sleep type for the night. Sneasel is easier to find during Sleep Research and evolves into Weavile using 80 Sneasel Candy and a Razor Claw. However, you'll still need to encounter Weavile in the wild to complete your Sleep Research data.
