Drowzee are a pokemon alternately feared and beloved for their ability to eat dreams, dreams which Drowzee view in their entirety as part of their strange digestive process. Less well known is their ability to regurgitate these dreams for their trainers, which they do not in the form of vomit, but as television-like clouds on which the events of the dream are displayed. These trainers are typically employed in the creative fields; some are authors, others playwrights or screenwriters or poets or game designers. Most of them are talented in their own right and use dreams only occasionally during periods of writers' block. A dream is a poor story, so the wisdom goes, but a skilled writer can draw elements of one into their own work.
There is, however, a literary movement composed entirely of Drowzee trainers and dreams, which strives to weave coherent and fascinating storylines while maintaining the fantastic logic of dreams. Some of these dreams are stolen, but most come from the trainer themselves, the Drowzee used only to aid in dream recollection. While the dream itself is forgotten through this process, dreams often are anyway; a video is more easily remembered than even the best recalled dream.
Within this movement is a circle of horror writers who first use other pokemon to give them nightmares. These trainers are ostracised by polite society as pokemon abusers, for the act of eating and regurgitating nightmares gives Drowzee a nasty sickness. Their stories are nonetheless extremely popular. Some moral guardians say this is because the readers are as twisted and awful as the writers, but most critics and fans disagree, and retort that the stories are just that good.
