In-Depth Analysis
Lapras's 535 base stat total marks it as a defensive Pokémon that shines at absorbing hits. HP (130) carries most matchups, but a low Speed stat of 60 means careful positioning matters.
Its Water, Ice typing leaves Lapras with 4 weaknesses against 2 resistances. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 6 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 45 makes Lapras a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants HP +2 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
