12 Hardest Drowzee Pokémon Cards to Pull
Ranked by estimated pull rates from English booster packs.
Drowzee’s illustration rare offers a larger scene alongside its older framed artwork and reverse holos. Each printing provides a different collecting option. This countdown compares estimated English pack odds with exact card numbers, finishes and the evidence behind each figure.
Pull rates are estimates—see how this ranking works.
Estimated odds, limited coverage. This uses the same estimates as our pull-rate calculators, including labelled rough models and very-low-confidence assumptions. It does not establish the hardest Drowzee ever printed; nearby estimates may not represent a real difference in difficulty.

Where this estimate comes from
The estimated rarity frequency is divided across the eligible cards in that pool, assuming equal individual chances. It is not a measured count of this particular card.
Reverse holos use the community single-sheet estimate of 1/110. Common and uncommon estimates approximate the mixed nine-card sheet.

Dense patterns, warm colours and an unusual interior setting give this Drowzee illustration rare a dreamlike atmosphere. The 210/198 number identifies the expanded artwork, separate from the ordinary card in Scarlet & Violet.
Where this estimate comes from
The estimated rarity frequency is divided across the eligible cards in that pool, assuming equal individual chances. It is not a measured count of this particular card.
Published TCGplayer opening frequencies. Specific-card rates assume an equal share of its rarity pool; these are estimates, not manufacturer odds. Common and uncommon cards use a uniform slot approximation. Ordinary reverse odds are unavailable. Independent pack calculations do not reproduce print-sheet collation.
How we compare Drowzee pull rates
We compare the chance of pulling one exact card from one English pack of its release. A rarity’s overall hit rate is different from the odds of finding a particular Drowzee within that rarity. Evidence ranges from reported community openings and print-sheet models to rough comparisons and assumed rarity frequencies. Each rough estimate carries its warning beside the odds; expand its explanation for the actual basis.
Japanese cards, guaranteed promos, deck cards and box toppers are outside this ranking. Vintage editions with shared odds take one position. Distinct pack-pulled finishes can qualify separately. Prices do not affect the order, and a missing price does not remove an otherwise eligible card.
Up to ten cards are selected automatically from available estimates, with any tie at the cutoff kept together. Estimates are rounded to two significant digits for comparison, not presented as precise measurements. New cards can enter when a matching printing and estimate are available; prices refresh with the catalogue. Descriptions stay with their card when the order changes.
Drowzee pull-rate questions
Which Drowzee card is hardest to pull?
Drowzee 210/198 (Scarlet & Violet Base Set, Holofoil) has the lowest estimated chance among the qualifying cards here: about 1 in 310 packs. This is the current model’s ordering, including any rough assumptions labelled above. It does not cover every Drowzee ever released.
Will opening 310 packs guarantee the top-ranked card?
No. For the first card listed at rank 1, opening 310 independent packs gives an estimated 62.9% chance of at least one copy. The average waiting time is not a promise; actual packs and factory collation can behave differently from this model.
Is the hardest Drowzee to pull also the most expensive?
Not necessarily. Artwork, demand, condition and how much product exists also matter to collectors. This guide ranks estimated pack odds. Our most expensive Drowzee guide compares available raw prices instead.
Do a booster box or an Elite Trainer Box guarantee a Drowzee?
These estimates do not establish any product-level guarantee. A named Drowzee promo included in a product is separate from the random cards inside its booster packs. Use the exact-card calculator to explore pack quantities and its stated assumptions.
Why can a reverse-holo Drowzee rank above a rarer-looking card?
This compares one exact printing. A large reverse-holo pool can make a particular card’s modelled chance small even when reverse holos overall are common. Most of these estimates assume equal chances within the pool. That does not prove this Pokémon is short-printed, and it does not describe the ordinary non-holo version.
