# Drowzee (Japanese) #p575576 — Expansion Pack

## Summary

Drowzee arrived in Japan in October 1996 with the Expansion Pack, the first Pokemon card set ever released, more than two years before the same card reached English Base Set shelves in January 1999. On this Japanese Drowzee, the hypnotic yellow tapir stands in a half-asleep slouch against a dark, glittering backdrop, framed by a purple border. As a common, it is bulk by pull rate, but an original Japanese print carries history. The modelled guide sits at $1.05, down 7% over 30 days on 1 copy traded, with 758 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file.
