Catching Some Z’s is all about Pokemon which like to take it easy, but that doesn’t stop it from being an exciting new Pokemon GO event.

This is because it includes the debut of another brand-new Pokemon and a new costumed Snorlax, alongside updated wild spawns and Raid Bosses!

Catching Some Z’s Event Date & Time

The Pokemon GO Catching Some Z’s event starts at 10 AM local time on July 15 and ends at 8 PM local time on July 16, 2023.

This gives Pokemon trainers just one weekend to catch the brand-new Pokemon in the game!
