Happy holidays!
On Greengrass Isle, the Holiday 2023 — Double Dream Shard Research event lasts from 4:00 a.m. on Monday, December 18!
Holiday 2023 — Double Dream Shard Research is a week-long event during which you can get double the Dream Shards through sleep research, and you may even meet a Shiny Pokémon!
There will also be an event-limited function called Candy Boost, which will give your Pokémon twice the effect from candies! The main skill Dream Shard Magnet S will be twice as effective as well during the event, so this is an opportunity to really raise up your Pokémon!
(A balance adjustment to significantly increase the effect of main skill Dream Shard Magnet S is planned for an update immediately before the event.)
In addition, the Snorlax on Greengrass Isle during the event week will have Rawst Berries (Ice type) set as one of its favorite Berries.
And for this event as well, you’ll be able to meet Pokémon of different sleep types regardless of your own!
Through limited-time missions during the event, you can get great rewards such as up to a total of 60 Pikachu Candies.
Also, researchers who conduct sleep research on the final day of the event will get a gift of 1,225 bonus sleep points!
On top of that, you’ll have a higher likelihood of meeting Ice-type Pokémon such as Delibird, Snover, and Abomasnow, as well as a Pikachu wearing a red hat!
We hope you’re looking forward to the event!

Using Candy Boost lets your helper Pokémon get twice the usual amount of EXP from candies in exchange for using up to six times the usual amount of Dream Shards per candy.
You can freely toggle this function ON or OFF by tapping the button in the upper right of the Level Up screen. Feel free to use Candy Boost when you want to level up your helper Pokémon a lot in one go!
