  "account": "Fitbit and Pokemon have teamed up to create a special-edition fitness tracker that could help improve your sleep. The $129 Fitbit Air, first announced in 2019, finally launched in 2023 and quickly became the most downloaded sleep game app in the world. This collaboration aims to make sleep tracking more engaging and fun through the Pokemon Sleep app. The special edition Fitbit Air features a deep blue woven wristband and a Pikachu etching, designed for extended wear and sleep tracking. The tracker syncs with both the Google Health app and Pokemon Sleep app, allowing users to log daily movement, heart rate, and cardio load during the day, and accurately record sleep duration and quality at night. The special edition can be preordered online or at Google Store and Target for $30 more than the standard Fitbit Air, including a Pikachu Incense in Pokemon Sleep and a three-month trial of Google Health Premium.",
