Pokémon’s new game lets you catch ’em all while you sleep

As if you didn’t cram enough game time into your waking hours, Pokémon is launching a new way to catch ’em all… while you sleep.

The Pokémon Company announced the perplexing new app, Pokémon Sleep, at a preview event in Tokyo on Wednesday.

According to the announcement, the game will be paired with a device developed with Nintendo called the Pokémon Go Plus Plus, which uses an accelerometer to track your sleep time and sends this information to your smartphone via Bluetooth.

All this, the company says, allows you to catch Pokémon in your sleep. “Several Snorlax were consulted on this, in case you were wondering,” Pokémon tweeted.

We’re pleased to announce the development of Pokémon Sleep, a new app from @Pokemon_cojp that tracks a user’s time sleeping and brings a gameplay experience unlike any other!

Pokémon Sleep will launch for mobile devices in 2020. It’s not the only new Pokémon product announced on Wednesday, however. 

The company is also launching a new cloud service app called Pokémon HOME, which allows players to syndicate their Pokémon collection across games, trade with other players, and in future, allow multiple players to trade simultaneously.

Expected to launch in early 2020 on iOS, Android and Nintendo Switch devices, the cloud service connects with Pokémon Bank, Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, the upcoming Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield games, and also Pokémon GO.

Welcome home, Trainers.

Plus, there’s a(nother) new Pokémon mobile game on the way, announced just weeks after Pokémon Rumble Rush began quietly rolling out in Australia. 

Created by The Pokémon Company and DeNA, Pokémon Masters will land on iOS and Android devices some time in 2019. 

The details are vague at this point, with more coming in June, but according to the announcement, “Pokémon Masters lets players experience a new type of Pokémon battling on the go, and it features many famous Pokémon Trainers from the long history of Pokémon video games.”

Phew! One more.

The company also announced plans for a new entry in the Detective Pikachu video game series specifically for Nintendo Switch, with more details to come. 

Go catch ’em all, we guess.

How to train your brain to have lucid dreams – Neuroscience News

Summary: A sleep researcher shares the secrets for training your brain to experience lucid dreams. Source: The Conversation Dreams can often be confusing and blurry experiences . Reduced critical thinking, little to no access to our true memories and heightened impulsivity and emotions during normal dream states often make for head-scratching moments when our eyes first open in the morning. But dreams don’t always play out this way. More than half of us have at least once in their lifetime experienced awareness of dreaming in the moment and, in some cases, the ability to direct a dream like a sleepy Steven Spielberg. Nearly a quarter of us report lucid dreaming once a month or more. Two key changes in the brain appear responsible for these states. The frontotemporal cortex, which controls our higher cognitive abilities and is inhibited during normal dreams, shows higher activation during lucid dreams. Researchers also observe an increase in gamma waves , synchronised firing by

A veteran in hospice care is reunited with his dog one last time | MNN – Mother Nature Network

After being admitted into hospice care, veteran John Vincent had just one special request: He wanted to spend a little time with his beloved dog. Vincent, a 69-year-old Marine who fought in Vietnam, was placed into the Hospice Center at the Raymond G. Murphy Veterans Affairs Medical Center in New Mexico. Because he had no family in the area to care for his pet, he had to give up his 6-year-old Yorkshire terrier mix named Patch to the Albuquerque Animal Welfare, the organization posted on Facebook . Knowing he likely didn’t have much time left, Vincent told Amy Neal, his palliative care social worker, that he wanted to say goodbye to Patch and see him one last time. Neal reached out to the city’s animal welfare department. “It was an immediate ‘yes’ from us,” Adam Ricci, Albuquerque Animal Welfare chief of field operations, told CNN . “So, we worked with the VA to get things organized.” Patch spent the day on Vincent’s bed.

As one of the cheapest and most satiating fruits, bananas are up there with the most popular snacks you can buy.  And while their health benefits are widely known, few are aware of how the ripeness of a banana impacts on its nutritional make-up. So to help make it clear, Australian sports dietitian Ryan Pinto recently shared a graphic about the various benefits – and why eating an over-ripe banana may not be a great idea.  ‘The best way to understand how the health of a banana can change is by investigating what really happens to them internally over time,’ he wrote on his page, High Performance Nutrition AU .  Australian sports dietitian Ryan Pinto recently shared a graphic about the various benefits of bananas at different stages – and why eating an over-ripe banana may not be a great idea Green bananas  According to Ryan, green bananas are ‘youthful, low FODMAP and full of starch’. ‘Referred to as “resistant” starch, this nutrient makes your digestive system work a little ha
