[[File:Yawn VII 2.png|thumb|Yawn in Generation VII, a move that causes drowsiness]]
'''Drowsy''' (Japanese: '''ねむけ''' ''Drowsy'') is a status effect in the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]]. It debuted in [[Generation III]] as an effect created by {{m|Yawn}}.

==Effect==
At the end of the next turn after a Pokémon becomes drowsy, it falls {{status|sleep|asleep}} (and ceases to be drowsy). At that time, it ceases to be drowsy, regardless of whether it actually fell asleep or not.

The Pokémon ceases to be drowsy if it switches out. Drowsiness cannot be passed with {{m|Baton Pass}}.

There are two points in time at which a Pokémon's immunity to drowsiness and sleep is checked: when it would become drowsy, and when it would fall asleep. Some effects only protect the Pokémon at one of these points in time.

===Generation III to IV===
Pokémon cannot become drowsy if a Pokémon is making an {{m|uproar}}, unless the Pokémon that would become drowsy has {{a|Soundproof}}. However, a Pokémon that is already drowsy will fall asleep even if a Pokémon is making an uproar.

===Generation V onward===
At the end of the next turn after becoming drowsy, if a Pokémon is making an {{m|uproar}} the drowsy Pokémon will not fall asleep (and cease to be drowsy). However, Pokémon can become drowsy even if a Pokémon is making an uproar.

Due to drowsiness applying before [[terrain]] and uproar fade, they will prevent a drowsy Pokémon from falling asleep even during the turn they fade.

==Causes==
{{m|Yawn}} makes the target drowsy, causing it to fall asleep at the end of the next turn.

{{m|G-Max Snooze}} has a 50% chance of making the target drowsy, causing it to fall asleep at the end of the next turn.
