Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

The earliest other card is Drowzee 49/102 in Base (1999). Both list 50 HP. Both list the rarity Common.

Long-Distance Hypnosis is listed as Pokémon Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep; if tails, your Active Pokémon is now Asleep. This power can't be used if Drowzee is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. The attack Nightmare lists 10 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless. The Defending Pokémon is now Asleep. Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Not popular with girls because of its attitude. Can often be heard muttering to itself in a low voice."

I keep a set binder for Team Rocket, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Team Rocket set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Drowzee can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
