It feeds on dreams.
In the anime
Drowzee first appeared alongside its evolved form in Hypno's Naptime. Both of the Hypnosis Pokémon were used to help the members of the Pokémon Lover's Club get sleep. Hypno was causing children to act like Pokémon and draining the energy off of the Pokémon in the local Pokémon Center. Drowzee was used to fix the mess Hypno created.
Drowzee made another appearance in Pikachu Re-Volts. Butch and Cassidy used a Drowzee to brainwash Pokémon into turning against their trainers and obeying Butch and Cassidy.
Drowzee was living in abandoned mining town with several other Psychic Pokémon in Fear Factor Phony. The Psychic Pokémon had parties in order to help them forget their sadness due to fact that the miners had left the town long ago. However, the constant partying was disturbing the Ghost Pokémon that lived in the abandoned mine.

Trivia
- Drowzee is depicted has having three fingered hands in all of its game sprites except in its Red/Blue sprite where it is shown as having five.
- Fans usually confuse Drowzee eggs with Pichu Eggs.
Origin
Drowzee is based on the Japanese myth of the baku, creatures who eat bad dreams of sleeping people. Originally, they were composite animals, but later became tapirs — pig-like animals from South America.
Name origin
Drowzee's name is a misspelling of the word drowsy, which means dull with sleepiness. The zee could also be a reference to the saying "catching some Zs", meaning to sleep. Its Japanese name simply refers to sleep.
In other languages
- German: Traumato
- French: Soporifik - Soporifique means narcotic. The spelling was likely changed intentionally to stay within 10 characters.
- Korean: 슬리프 Seullipeu
