One of the biggest gripes that players have withPokemon Sleepis that it has a very limited number of Pokemon. At the moment, it has just over 100 Pokemon, which is a small number considering there are over 900 Pokemon throughout the franchise. However, the developers have assured players thatmore Pokemon will be addedin the future.
While many people miss befriending their favorite Pokemon, it is hard to deny that it is more painful to miss out on them due to the lack of biscuits. Another thing that is hard to do inPokemon Sleepis to raise and evolve Pokemon. Most Pokemon require a specific amount of candies to evolve, and it can take a long time to gather them. Some of them need certain evolutionary items, with theLinking Cordbeing one of them.

It is definitely not an easy task to accumulate so many points, especially when there is a constant need to purchasedifferent types of biscuits, candies, and skill seeds. However, there is a free alternative to getting the Linking Cord.

The best approach to acquiring the Linking Cord is to add friends as quickly as possible, so the Closeness Level goes up early. Before getting the Linking Cord, players will also getHandy Candy S x1andIngredient Ticket S x1.
Players can get it as a gift for increasing the level of 10 Pokemon to 15. It is also possible to earn itby using 140 incense. However, it is worth noting that both of these methods are more tedious than using the Research Community or straight up buying the Linking Cord from the Regular Exchange.
