<\/p>\n

The Pok\u00e9mon Drowzee<\/strong> may be overlooked sometimes, but I have a soft spot for the tapir-shaped guy. It’s based on a Baku, a creature that looks like a Malayan tapir that eats dreams. It’s also thought to share an ancestor with another Baku-like ‘Mon, Munna (and its evolution). It might sound odd, but keeping a Drowzee around might mean you sleep safe and sound as it eats your nightmares.<\/p>\n

Drowzee is one of the first psychic Pok\u00e9mon we meet, introduced in Gen I’s original Pok\u00e9dex. It might not have the most iconic of designs, but it’s a must catch for any ungulate fan.<\/p>\n

    Drowzee’s type strengths and weaknesses<\/h2>\n

    Drowzee deals normal levels of damage to most types it opposes, but you may find it helpful against any psychic- or fighting-types, as it’s resistant to these kinds of attacks. Keep it away from dark- and ghost-type Pok\u00e9mon, though.<\/p>\n
