Drowzee 54/82 Pokémon Team Rocket Raw

Drowzee (54/82) from the Team Rocket 1st Edition set is a classic Psychic-type Basic Pokémon card that holds a special place in the hearts of Pokémon TCG collectors and fans of the franchise's early days. Featuring the iconic, sleepy-eyed Drowzee in its original design, this Common rarity card showcases artwork by Kagemaru Himeno and hails from one of the most memorable expansions in the game's history. Released in 2000, the Team Rocket set introduced a darker, more villainous theme to the Pokémon TCG, and Drowzee fits right in with its eerie Long-Distance Hypnosis Ability. This power allows players to flip a coin during their turn to potentially put the Defending Pokémon to sleep—though a tails result risks putting their own Active Pokémon to sleep instead, adding a layer of risk and strategy.

With a modest 50 HP and a single Colorless retreat cost, Drowzee is not a powerhouse in battle, but its thematic charm and nostalgic value make it a standout. Its attack, Nightmare, deals 10 damage and also puts the Defending Pokémon to sleep, reinforcing its role as a status-inducing nuisance. While not a top-tier competitive card by modern standards, Drowzee from the Team Rocket set is a beloved piece of Pokémon TCG history, especially in its 1st Edition form, which is highly sought after by collectors. The card’s vintage aesthetic, combined with the limited print run of the 1st Edition, gives it lasting appeal and collectible significance.
