Hydration - Heals status conditions while in rain - On a rain team, this is excellent as Lapras can abuse Rest to heal off damage it takes, but otherwise its move slots are often too tight to fit Rain Dance in. In contrast though, this can be seen as a positive since it makes it easier for Lapras to activate Weakness Policy.Ĩ5 base offensive stats means that even with Lapras coverage there's not a lot of damage going around if the opponent avoids activating Weakness Policy.Ħ0 base Speed means Lapras won't outrun anything except for slow defensive foes. Ice secondary typing makes Lapras weak to a lot of common threats such as Stealth Rock, Keldeo, and Terrakion. Lapras has solid coverage options making it hard to pivot around, which is compounded by the fact that many Lapras run Weakness Policy to boost itself further. High health makes it quite durable, especially since its defenses are alright at base 80 Defense and base 95 Special Defense. This also makes Lapras a deadly user of Weakness Policy with its fantastic coverage, since it becomes very difficult to KO Lapras with a super-effective move. This makes Lapras immensely annoying as its massive health compounded with the reduced damage, and ability to use Hydration/Rest due to Max water moves starting rain means it will last for a while and deal decent damage. Fitting the lore of Lapras as a helpful Pokemon, G-Max Resonance sets Aurora Veil, reducing damage its team takes for 5 turns. Lapras is one of the few Pokemon that received a G max form and is a nice option. This in combination with its G-Max move, G-Max Resonance, makes G-Max Lapras an immense threat to deal with late game. Lapras is also one of few Pokemon with an actually fantastic Gigantamax form that makes it a top threat in any format where its Gigantamax form is allowed. Lapras can come off as underwhelming but shines with its massive coverage options, giving it great flexibility despite middling offenses. Lapras is a Pokemon that hasn't stood the test of time well until recently, being cursed with Ice as a secondary type and no base stat over 100 bar health. Probably the most iconic bulky water Pokemon as its sprite was used for surfing in generations 1 and 2.

Its smooth skin is a little cool to the touch. Crossing icy seas is no issue for this cold-resistant Pokémon. A smart and kindhearted Pokémon, it glides across the surface of the sea while its beautiful song echoes around it.
