Ever Wanted to Sleep Inside a Giant Pokéball? In Japan, You'll Soon Have a Chance

Japan will soon offer a unique hospitality experience: sleeping inside a giant Pokéball. Inspired by the Pokémon Sleep app, luxury hotel Not a Hotel is partnering with the popular franchise to let guests spend the night in a Pokéball-shaped sleeping pod. The trailer shows a spacious spherical bed inside a half-open Pokéball, complete with a transparent window for guests to view their surroundings.

A lottery will be held on September 15 to determine who gets to take this Pokéball-sized vacation, which will take place in Hokkaido, Japan. While the pod includes a window, there are no curtains. Guests who prefer a traditional bed can opt for their own home, and the Pokéball experience is set to continue with the release of Pokémon Winds and Waves next year.
