Ever since the mobile game Pokémon Sleep hit the scene, its adorable, sleep-centric gameplay has been a huge hit with players. Many even swear by it as a handy tool for tracking and improving their sleep health, thanks to its insightful sleep quality data.
And now, as the game rolls into its third anniversary, it's dropping a massive collaboration announcement with NOT A HOTEL Co., Ltd. (aka "NOT A HOTEL"). Get ready for September 2026, because Hokkaido is about to get a mind-blowing "Poké Ball-Themed Hotel"! Lucky participants will get the ultimate, once-in-a-lifetime chance to actually experience living inside a Poké Ball.
Think about it: a Poké Ball is a safe, comfy haven for Pokémon. Now, imagine that for humans! This project aims to transform that concept into a space where you can truly unwind, get some seriously good sleep, and feel totally refreshed.
NOT A HOTEL is pulling out all the stops, leveraging their signature architectural flair and cutting-edge tech to bring the Poké Ball world to life as a truly livable space. Picture this: a giant, spherical Poké Ball hotel, nestled right in the breathtaking natural beauty of Hokkaido.
So, what exactly awaits inside this epic "Poké Ball"? What kind of night will guests experience? The full reveal of this "Live-In Poké Ball" is set for September 15!
