Ability and Held Item

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Lapras Image
Ability Held Item
Water Absorb Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Assault Vest ImageAssault Vest

The Ability chosen for this build is Water Absorb. This makes Lapras a great switch in into Water-type moves since the attacks will heal it for 25% of its max HP.

The item chosen for this build is Assault Vest. This increases Lapras Sp. Def making it a great special wall at the cost of only being able to use attacking moves.

Moves Breakdown

Surf Ice Beam
Ice Shard Thunderbolt

Surf is its strongest Water-type STAB move that has no downsides.

Ice Beam is its strongest Ice-type STAB move that has a 10% chance to freeze the target.

Ice Shard is a +1 priority move that is used to finish off any low-health enemies.

Thunderbolt is its main coverage move that allows Lapras to hit Water-types that would otherwise resist both of its other moves.

Pokemon Electric Type Icon Pokemon Flying Type Icon Pokemon Steel Type Icon

Electric is the best Tera Type for this build because its only weakness is Ground, which both of Lapras' STABs would hit for super-effective damage. It also has the bonus of boosting the damage of Thunderbolt.

Best Electric (Tera) Type Pokemon for Ranked Battle

EV Spread and Nature

A full 252 EVs are placed in Lapras' HP and Sp. Atk to make it very bulky while still being able to hit hard. The extra 4 EVs are put in its Attack to slightly boost the damage of Ice Shard.

A Modest nature is preferred to maximize its damage output.

Other Viable Moves

Freeze-Dry
+
Psychic 		Used over Ice Beam + Thunderbolt. While Freeze-Dry is weaker than Ice Beam, it will hit Water-types for super-effective damage which frees up a move slot for a better coverage move like Psychic.
Blizzard Stronger alternative to Ice Beam, but should only be used if you can set up Snow.

Moves Breakdown

Surf Freeze-Dry
Psychic Noise Protect

Surf and Freeze-Dry are its best STAB moves that provide near-perfect coverage.

Psychic Noise is used to punish more passive Pokemon that rely on health recovery to stay alive by preventing them from healing.

Protect allows Lapras to stall out turns and let the poison ticks do more damage.

Moves Breakdown

Surf Freeze-Dry
Perish Song Protect

Surf and Freeze-Dry are its best STAB moves that provide near-perfect coverage.

Perish Song is used as a late-game win condition. This synergizes well with Lapras's naturally low Speed stat, making it so it faints last from Perish Song.

Protect allows Lapras to stall out turns until Perish Song resolves.

Best Fire (Tera) Type Pokemon for Ranked Battle

EV Spread and Nature

A full 252 EVs are placed into Lapras' HP and Special Attack to make it bulky and specially offensive. The remaining EVs are put into Defense, to allow it to better take physical attacks from Pokemon like Iron Hands.

A Modest nature is preferred to maximize its offensive potential.

Other Viable Moves

Ice Beam
or
Blizzard 		Stronger Ice-type STAB moves, but doesn't hit Water-types for super-effective damage.
Hydro Pump Gives Lapras a more powerful Water STAB option, but comes at the cost of being inaccurate.

How to Use Lapras Effectively

Use as a Defensive Pivot

With its amazing HP and defensive stats, along with its ability Water Absorb, Lapras works great as a defensive pivot for allies that don't want to take hits from Water or Ice-type attacks.

How to Build a Team with Lapras

Pair Lapras with bulky Pokemon that can switch in and out to maximize their type matchups.

Sample Singles Team

Defensive Lead Special Attacker Special Attacker
Lapras ImageLapras Gholdengo ImageGholdengo Bloodmoon Ursaluna ImageBloodmoon Ursaluna

Bloodmoon Ursaluna is the most important Pokemon on this team, so we pair it with teammates that can switch in and tank hits that would threaten it for super-effective damage.

Lapras is used to switch in and tank Water and Ice moves, while Gholdengo can switch into Fighting and Grass moves.

Sample Doubles Team

Special Attacker Offensive Tank
Lapras ImageLapras Gastrodon (East Sea) ImageGastrodon (East Sea)
Physical Attacker Support / Physical Attacker
Landorus (Therian Forme) ImageLandorus (Therian Forme) Rillaboom ImageRillaboom

Lapras and Gastrodon can spam Surf next to each other, healing and boosting Special Attack stats respectively. This strategy is powerful, but may be countered by Pokemon with Wide Guard, who are typically weak to Ground (Garganacl, Armarouge, with the exception of Pelipper).

Landorus-T and Rillaboom are strong Pokemon to have late-game, as Landorus has Speed (especially with Choice Scarf), while Rillaboom has priority with Grassy Glide. Additionally, Landorus can threaten Grass-types with super-effective Flying Tera Blast.

Counters for Lapras

Use Physical Attackers that can Setup in Front of Lapras
