Wellbeing tracking in PokeDo is a first-class feature that feeds directly into gameplay. Logging your daily health metrics isn’t just bookkeeping — each entry unlocks bonuses that affect your next task completion: better catch rates, increased encounter odds for specific Pokemon types, and boosts to your Pokemon’s happiness. PokeDo tracks a separate wellbeing streak alongside your task streak, so consistent logging compounds over time just like completing tasks does.

The six wellbeing entry types

Mood

Log your current mood on a 1–5 scale. Affects your Pokemon’s happiness modifier.

Exercise

Track workouts by type and duration. Boosts type-specific encounter odds.

Sleep

Record hours and quality. Good sleep directly improves catch rates.

Hydration

Log glasses of water. Reaching 8 glasses activates a Water-type encounter bonus.

Meditation

Track meditation minutes. Unlocks a Psychic/Fairy-type encounter bonus.

Journaling

Write a journal entry with optional gratitude items. Grants a Pokemon friendship bonus.

Mood

Log your mood once per day on a scale of 1 (very low) to 5 (great). Your mood modifies the happiness of all Pokemon in your active team.
# Shortcut command
pokedo mood 4 --note "Feeling productive"

# Full command
pokedo wellbeing mood 5

# With energy level
pokedo mood 3 --energy 4 --note "Tired but focused"
Happiness modifiers:
Mood levelLabelPokemon happiness change
1Very Low−2
2Low−1
3Neutral0
4Good+1
5Great+2
Keeping Pokemon happiness high matters if you plan to evolve Pokemon that require friendship (such as Chansey into Blissey or Golbat into Crobat).

Exercise

Log a workout session with a type, duration in minutes, and intensity (1–5). The exercise type determines which Pokemon types receive a boosted encounter weight.
# Shortcut command
pokedo exercise cardio --duration 30 --intensity 4

# Full command
pokedo wellbeing exercise running --duration 45

# With note
pokedo exercise hiking --duration 90 --intensity 3 --note "Trail run in the hills"
Exercise types and their type bonuses:

cardioFire, Flying
strengthFighting, Rock
yogaPsychic, Fairy
swimmingWater, Ice
cyclingElectric, Steel
walkingNormal, Grass
runningFire, Fighting
sportsFighting, Normal
hikingRock, Ground
dancingFairy, Normal
otherNormal
Exercise sessions also grant bonus XP. The formula is:
bonus_xp = floor(duration_minutes / 10) × 5 × (0.5 + intensity × 0.25)
A 30-minute cardio session at intensity 4 gives floor(30/10) × 5 × (0.5 + 4 × 0.25) = 15 × 1.5 = 22 bonus XP.

Sleep

Log the previous night’s sleep with hours and a quality rating (1–5). Sleep quality has a direct effect on your catch rate for the next task completion.
# Shortcut command
pokedo sleep 7.5 --quality 4

# Full command
pokedo wellbeing sleep 8

# With note
pokedo sleep 6 --quality 2 --note "Woke up twice"
Catch rate modifiers by sleep:
Hours sleptCatch rate effect
Less than 5 hours−20%
5–6.9 hours−10%
7–9 hours+10%
More than 9 hoursNo change
Sleep quality is stored but the catch rate modifier is calculated from hours only. Log accurately — under-reporting sleep hours costs you the catch bonus on your next task.

Hydration

Log your daily water intake in 8 oz glasses. Reaching 8 glasses activates a Water-type encounter bonus for the rest of the day.
# Shortcut command
pokedo water --glasses 8

# Full command
pokedo wellbeing water --glasses 6

# With note
pokedo water --glasses 3 --note "Only had coffee this morning"
Water-type encounter multipliers:
Glasses loggedWater-type encounter bonus
Less than 6None (×1.0)
6–7×1.25
8 or more×1.5 (goal met)
When you hit 8 glasses, PokeDo confirms: Daily goal reached! Water-type Pokemon bonus active.

Meditation

Log a meditation session by duration in minutes. Longer sessions unlock a stronger Psychic and Fairy-type encounter bonus.
# Shortcut command
pokedo meditate 15

# Full command
pokedo wellbeing meditate 20

# With note
pokedo meditate 10 --note "Morning breathing session"
Psychic/Fairy encounter multipliers:
Minutes meditatedBonus
Less than 10None (×1.0)
10–19×1.25
20 or more×1.5

Journaling

Write a journal entry with optional gratitude items. The length of the entry and the number of gratitude items together determine the friendship bonus applied to your lead Pokemon.
# Basic journal entry
pokedo wellbeing journal "Had a great team sync today, made good progress on the backlog."

# With gratitude items
pokedo wellbeing journal "Productive day overall." --gratitude "morning coffee, sunshine, good code review"
Friendship bonus formula:

Base (any entry)+1
3 or more gratitude items+2
Entry is 100+ characters+1
Maximum possible+4

The output shows a table of all six metrics with their status. Entries not yet logged appear as Not logged. The summary also shows your overall completion count: how many of the six metrics you have logged today.

Wellbeing streaks

PokeDo tracks a separate wellbeing streak, independent of your task streak. The wellbeing streak increments when you log at least one wellbeing entry on consecutive days. Missing a day resets the current count to 1, but your best streak is always preserved.

The wellbeing streak does not currently award items at milestones — that system applies to the task streak. Consistent wellbeing logging primarily compounds through the daily gameplay bonuses described above.
