How to Get the Green Snorlax
To get the Green Snorlax,discover 20 unique Sleep Styles on the Greengrass Isle. This will unlock a new location called Cyan Beach, where allthe Sleeping Snorlaxesare green.
Pokemon Sleepplayers do not need to complete any specific objective to find the Green Snorlax, as the creature is part of the campaign progression. However, maximizing the Drowsy Power and catching more Pokemon will help players get it faster.

Note that players can neither change their location nor their Snorlax until the end of each research week. So, completing weekly missions on one island is crucial before moving to one with the Green Snorlax.
Is the Green Snorlax Shiny?
Despite its different color, theGreen Snorlax is not shiny.InPokemon, a shiny Snorlax has a royal blue color, which is a slightly altered hue of its base form. But the chances of meeting a shiny Snorlax are much slimmer than getting a green one.
It’s also worth noting that the Green Snorlax has nospecial abilities. Just like the base form, it relies on meals and berries to maximize its Drowsy Power and lure Pokemon.

While the Green Snorlax is not shiny, players can stillcatch shiny Pokemon inPokemon Sleep, if lucky.
Is Green Snorlax Exclusive to Pokemon Sleep?
Although greenish Snorlaxes have appeared in previousPokemongames likeFireRed & LeafGreenandStadium, this particular Green Snorlax is exclusive toPokemon Sleep.
Some players speculate that other locations inPokemon Sleepmight introduce more color variants of Snorlax in the future. But it’s unlikely that these hued creatures will make it into other mainlinePokemongames, though players might be able to catch them inPokemon GO.
