Pokémon Teams Up with Google for Exclusive Fitbit Air Edition

Google has partnered with Pokémon to release a special edition Fitbit Air fitness tracker. The new band is a collaboration between the two brands and features a unique design inspired by the popular Pokémon Sleep app.

The special edition Fitbit Air comes in a 'Sleepy Blue' colorway and includes a silk print label featuring a sleeping Pikachu. This limited-edition model is available for pre-order starting today, with shipping expected to begin on September 15.

Like previous special editions of the Fitbit Air, including one designed in partnership with NBA player Stephen Curry, this new model comes with all the features and benefits of the standard version. The band tracks fitness, rest, and recovery needs, and also works seamlessly with Google's Health app and Health Coach.

To connect the tracker to Pokémon Sleep, users will need to link their Google Health app to Health Connect or Apple Health and then pair it with their device in the Pokémon Sleep settings. Once connected, the app will sync with the user's sleep duration stats to use in the game.
