Drowzee 210/198

Drowzee features here as an Illustration Rare from the Scarlet & Violet Base Set, carded as 210/198. Since the collector number (210) sits above the set size (198), this card falls into the run of special cards numbered beyond the main set, which is where the Illustration Rares live.

Illustration Rares are prized for their artwork above all else. Rather than the framed window of a standard card, the illustration extends across the full card face, placing Drowzee in a detailed scene that gives the card real character. This style was introduced with the Scarlet & Violet era and quickly became a favourite chase among collectors.

For set builders working through the Scarlet & Violet Base Set, the Illustration Rares are a defining part of the collection, and Drowzee is one of the more characterful entries in that group. Collectors who appreciate art focused cards tend to look for these well before the standard rares.
