Drowzee is based on the Japanese myth of the {{wp|Baku (mythology)|baku}}, creatures who eat bad dreams of sleeping people. Originally, they were composite animals, but later became {{wp|tapir}}s — pig-like animals with small trunks from {{wp|South America}} and {{wp|South Asia}}. It also shares some traits with {{wp|elephant}}s. Drowzee's dual coloring makes it especially similar to the {{wp|Malayan tapir}}. | Drowzee is based on the Japanese myth of the {{wp|Baku (mythology)|baku}}, creatures who eat bad dreams of sleeping people.
