Drowzee (Japanese:スリープSleepe) is aPsychic-typePokémon introduced inGeneration I.

Itevolves intoHypno starting atlevel 26.

Biology

Drowzee is a bipedalPokémon that resembles atapir. It has tired-looking eyes, a short trunk above its mouth, and triangular ears with brown interiors. The upper half of Drowzee's body is yellow and the lower half is brown. A wavy line separates the two halves. It has a round belly and short legs. Its feet are brown, except for its two toes, which are yellow. The bottom of each foot has a small, round, pink pad in the middle of it. There are three fingers on each of its hands. Drowzee is believed to have a common ancestor withMunna andMusharna.

Drowzee is able to put people to sleep and can then sense the person's dreams. This is so it knows what kind of dream it would be eating. It has certain preferences for the dreams it eats, and it is known to love fun dreams and become ill from bad dreams. It will rarely eat the dreams of adults, as the dreams of children are seemingly tastier. Drowzee remembers every dream it has eaten and may show past meals to a person it trusts. It eats dreams through the victim's nose, so it is said that Drowzee is standing over a person's pillow if their nose itches while they are asleep. Drowzee lives ingrasslands and savannas.

Trivia

• Drowzee's numbers in theAlola Pokédex inPokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and thePaldea Pokédex are identical: 066 for the former, and 66 for the latter.
• Despite being heavily associated withDream Eater, Drowzee and its Evolution,Hypno, cannot learn the move by leveling up outside ofPokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.
  • Notably, as the move is not aTM inPokémon Scarlet and Violet, Drowzee and Hypno cannot legally learn Dream Eater in these games, despite both them and the move itself being present.

Origin

Drowzee may be based on the Japanese myth of thebaku, creatures who eat bad dreams of sleeping people. Originally, they were composite animals, but later becametapirs — pig-like animals with small trunks fromSouth America andSouth Asia. Drowzee's dual coloring makes it especially similar to theMalayan tapir.

Name origin

Drowzee may be a combination ofdrowsy andzzz (onomatopoeia for snoring).

Sleepe may be derived fromsleep.
