The Downfall of Pokémon Sleep
Pokémon Sleep is moving to a new development team, Pokémon Works aka ILCA. ILCA is the ones who make both Pokémon HOME and they made Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl. Pokémon is doing two holiday events in California. Pokémon TCG Pocket has now made more money than Pokémon UNITE and Pokémon Sleep and will probably pass Pokémon Masters EX in revenue by the end of the year. 00:00:00-Introduction 00:01:40-Sleep's Downfall00:31:20-Holiday Events CA00:40:50-The Beast Ball00:57:40-Pokémon Pocket Talk01:27:15-Post Credits
