Sleep in Pokémon TCG Pocket — officially named Asleep in the game — is a special condition which makes Pokémon unable to attack or retreat until the player successfully flips a coin landing on heads.

Depending on your luck, your opponent’s or your Pokémon might be asleep the entire game — making Asleep decks one of the most fun or aggravating decks to play in Pokémon TCG Pocket.

As of the Celestial Guardians expansion’s release, there are 15 cards that can put other Pokémon to sleep, so there aren’t many options to choose from.

Below, we’ve created a table outlining every Pokémon card with the Asleep ability along with their card number, typing, HP, attack/ability, and which pack you can get them from. And if you’re constantly losing the coin flip, here are a few ways to cure the Asleep condition.

Update (April 30): Added four A3 cards with the arrival of Celestial Guardians and added a new way to cure sleep.
