“Drowsiness” status condition (instead of Sleep) seems to be back from Legends Arceus. Fingers crossed for the return of Frostbite instead of Freeze as well!

That’s encouraging. Hopefully it makes it over to the traditional games as well. I know SV were made concurrently with the first Legends game so not many new features were included. Gen 10 is the real test to see what will be recurring or not.
I’m hoping it got a BIG nerf. Was way too broken in PLA (at least half the dex could inflict it on you and it lasted way too fucking long).
Freeze is fine since there’s so many counter to it and only could happen by attacking moves (only 10%)
Its possible that is just flavour text. Status names are usually capitalised.
Honestly would be surprised if they didn’t, after all status conditions that totally immobilize you in a real-time action battle would SUCK (there’s a reason that in the anime sleep and freeze are akin to forcing a switch or forfeit most of the time).
Hopefully this means they bring back Frostbite.
Aww, dang. I like sleep being OP.
Makes some of the more utility based mons more viable. Like my beloved Jumpluff.
