Build Explanation |
---|
This build maximizes Lapras' damage output to utilize the instant knockout effect of Perish Song. By default, Bubble Beam will be the complimentary move for the build to give Lapras more durability via a shield. However, Ice Beam can also work with the build, giving Lapras more firepower. |
· Choice Specs gives Lapras a decent amount of Sp. Atk. stat and increases the Pokemon's minimum move damage, particularly Perish Song. · Slick Spoon boosts Lapras' Sp. Atk. and HP and allows it to ignore a portion of its target's Sp. Def., translating to more damage. · However, Wise Glasses can be a replacement for Choice Specs. · Focus Band is a staple tank item for Lapras, improving its defenses and giving it a survivability tool. · X Speed gives Lapras the mobility to stay on top of enemies when using Perish Song. · Eject Button can also serve the same purpose. · The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems for more damage and 6 White Emblems for additional HP. · This can be achieved by having at least two (2) Emblems that are both White and Green. · Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk. to maximize Lapras' damage output or HP for more durability. · Attack and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats. |

Since the build is centered on Perish Song's instant knockout effect, equipping items that maximizes Lapras' damage output is the ideal item combination. Focus Band is a staple item for the build to give Lapras more durability and a survivability tool.
The results show that Choice Specs and Slick Spoon will yield the best possible outcome for the build. The item combination produced the highest results in terms of Perish Song damage while generating the third best result in the Boosted Attack Damage test.
For alternatives, replacing Choice Specs with Wise Glasses would be the best option. The item combination had decent results but doesn't require stacking.
These damage tests are conducted in Practice Mode with Goodra as the Training Partner. The Pokemon is set to level 15 and has no items equipped. The results are calculated by substracting the Training Partner's max HP and its HP after taking damage.

Build Explanation |
---|
This build focuses on making Lapras as durable as possible, allowing the Pokemon to spam Water Pulse. Bubble Beam gives Lapras more durability through the move's shield effect. |
· Slick Spoon gives Lapras Sp. Atk. and HP, which works great with the build. It also allows the Pokemon to ignore a portion of its target's Sp. Def., resulting to more damage dealt. · However, Choice Specs can be an alternative damage item. · Focus Band is a staple tank item for Lapras, improving its defenses and giving it a survivability tool. · Aeos Cookie adds more bulk to Lapras through increased HP, especially when fully stacked. It also works nicely with Focus Band's healing effect. · Potion provides Lapras with an additional source of survivability on top of Focus Band. · However, X Speed can be a nice replacement, giving Lapras extra mobility instead to stay on top of enemies when using Water Pulse. · The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 White Emblems to maximize Lapras' HP and 6 Green Emblems for additional damage. · This can be achieved by having at least two (2) Emblems that are both White and Green. · Equip Emblems that improve HP or Sp. Atk. to balance Lapras' durability and damage. · Attack and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats. |

Water Pulse Damage (Max Pulses) |
---|---|---|
Aeos Cookie (6 Stacks) + Focus Band |
14,933 | - |
Slick Spoon | - | 1225 |
Since the build focuses on Lapras' durability and Water Pulse damage, equipping items that can satisfy both is the ideal item combination. Focus Band is a staple defensive item for the build, which sets a decent foundation for durability.
As the results show, Focus Band paired with a fully-stacked Aeos Cookie will allow Lapras to take the most damage compared to the other combinations. A fully-stacked Aeos Cookie not only provides Lapras a massive HP boost, but it also synergizes well with Focus Band's healing effect since the effect scales with HP.
On the other hand, equipping Slick Spoon will be the best damage item for the build. The item produced only slightly lower than the best result but has the benefit of adding more HP for Lapras.
For alternatives, replacing Slick Spoon with Choice Specs would be the best option. The item generated the best results for the damage tests.
The damage test was conducted in Practice Mode with Goodra as the Training Partner. The Pokemon is set to level 15 and has no items equipped. The results are calculated by substracting the Training Partner's max HP and its HP after taking damage.

Build Explanation |
---|
This is an experimental build focusing on improving and utilizing Lapras' Boosted Attacks. Perish Song works best for the build since each pulse turns Lapras' attacks into Boosted Attacks once it's upgraded. Its instant knockout effect is also an effective mechanic to have. Bubble Beam gives Lapras a disable and durability tool. |
· Slick Spon improves Lapras overall damage through increased Sp. Atk. and the ability to ignore a portion of its target's Sp. Def. It also gives a decent amont of HP for more durability. · Rapid-Fire Scarf gives Lapras the attack speed it needs to quickly build up or shoot Boosted Attacks. · Focus Band is a staple tank item for Lapras, improving its defenses and giving it a survivability tool. · Potion provides Lapras with an additional source of survivability on top of Focus Band and its Boosted Attacks. · However, X Attack can also work, improving Lapras' damage and attack speed. · The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems for better damage and 6 White Emblems for additional HP. · This can be achieved by having at least two (2) Emblems that are both White and Green. · Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk. to maximize Lapras' damage output or HP for more durability and better Boosted Attack healing. · Attack and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats. |

Since the build's focus is on Lapras' Boosted Attacks, equipping items that improve its effects, particularly its damage, is the ideal item. Focus Band is a staple item for the build to give Lapras durability and survivability. Rapid-Fire Scarf is also a core item for the build to allow Lapras to perform Boosted Attacks as often as possible.
As the results show, Slick Spoon will yield the highest possible result in terms of Lapras' Boosted Attack and Perish Song damage.

Item | Explanation |
---|---|
Sp. Atk. Specs | Sp. Atk. Specs provides Lapras with a large damage boost. Lapras can easily stack the item in the early game. |
Aeos Cookie | Aeos Cookie gives Lapras a massive HP boost, which also improves its Boosted Attack healing. Lapras can easily stack the item in the early game. |
Focus Band | Focus Band is a staple defensive item for Lapras, improving the Pokemon's defenses and giving it a survivability tool. |
Choice Specs | Choice Specs greatly improves Larpas' damage output, particularly its moves. |
Slick Spoon | Slick Spoon offers offense and defense for Lapras, increasing its Sp. Atk. and HP stats. |
Item | Explanation |
---|---|
X Speed | X Speed gives Lapras the mobility it needs to stay on top of enemies when using Water Pulse or Perish Song. |
Potion | Potion provides Lapras a reliable healing tool. It also works well with the Pokemon's large HP. |
Move | Explanation |
---|---|
Perish Song | Perish Song makes Lapras a looming threat in the battlefield due to its instant knockout effect. It also synergizes well with a lot of moves in the game. |
Bubble Beam | Bubble Beam offers both offense and defense. It deals damage while granting Lapras a shield. It's also a decent disabling move. |
This moveset allows Lapras to deal significant damage while making it difficult to knock out. Since Lapras needs to stay alive for as long as possible to deal significant damage, Bubble Beam gives the Pokemon exactly what it needs to do so. On the other hand, Perish Song not only deals considerable damage, it also makes Lapras a great threat in the battlefield due to its instant knockout effect.
For more firepower, learning Ice Beam instead of Bubble Beam is the ideal choice. The move deals significantly more damage in total if Lapras can keep enemies in place for its duration.
Meanwhile, choosing between Perish Song and Water Pulse is entirely up to player preference. While Perish Song can instantly knock out low-HP enemies, Water Pulse can be used more often, which can deal more damage in the long run.
Let us know why in the comments!

Lapras is an independent Defender Pokemon that can withstand heavy blows, so it benefits from securing the blue buff. Only secure the blue buff when no one else is farming in the jungle area. Assist allies at the bottom lane and defend your goal zone.
Once the Swablus and Altarias spawn in the middle of the lane, utilize the AoE damage from Whirlpool and frozen effect of Ice Shard to farm exp. and get to level 5 quickly.
Whirlpool lets Lapras deal damage over time to targets that gets captured by this move. It has a magnetic effect that pulls enemies near Lapras, and the nearer the targets are to the center of the whirlpool, the more damage it deals to them.
This move is perfect for facing early game teamfights, and early game exp. farming.
Ice Shard is another damaging move that lets Lapras deal damage and freeze targets for a short amount of time. After obatining both Whirlpool and Ice Shard, it's recommended to use Ice Shard to freeze enemies first, then use Whirlpool to deal damage over time afterwards, and finally take them down with standard attacks.
Shell Armor allows Lapras to withstand heavy-hitting attacks of its enemies by reducing damage that exceeds a set percentage of its max HP. Assist allies and soak damage when needed until Lapras reasches level 5.
Upon reaching level 5, two damaging move options will be available for Lapras to learn. Choosing Perish Song turns Lapras into an aggressive and bursty Defender that's willing to face the frontlines and soak damage. While Perish Song may require Lapras to dive in with a Supporter, the move has a low cooldown which makes it spammable.
Choosing Water Pulse lets Lapras slow down enemies that get caught in the pulse. This move is also an AoE attack that lets Lapras assist in dealing damage aggressively. It's also a great move for chasing down targets that are isolated or retreating, especially during teamfights.
Perish Song allows Lapras to deal AoE damage three times before it goes on cooldown. This is a very spammable move that suits a more aggressive playstyle for the Pokemon.
This move also synergizes well with ally Pokemon that have hard disables, or can inflict slow on opponents since it creates opportunities for both Lapras and its allies to chase down and burst enemies.
Water Pulse is also an AoE damaging move that has a much shorter cooldown than Perish Song. Enemies that get caught in the pulse of water are slowed, allowing Lapras and its teammates to catch up and burst down isolated targets.
Utilize this move during teamfights or partner it up with Ice Beam for a longer disable.
After reaching level 7 and learning either Bubble Beam or Ice Beam, Lapras is fully equipped to withstand blows from hard-hitting enemy Pokemon.
Soak damage for your allies, defend allied goal zones, and keep an eye out for objectives spawning on the top and bottom lanes!
Ice Beam not only freezes and slows enemies down when hit, but also leaves a frozen trail on the ground that increases Lapras' movement speed.
This move synergizes well with both Water Pulse and Perish Song as a follow up damaging move that can help allies overwhelm enemies easily.
Bubble Beam grants Lapras a shield while also enclosing the enemy it hits inside a bubble for a short time. Utilize both the shield and the hindrance effect of the bubbles to stall enemies and let your allies take down targets that get hit.
Lapras Express is a Unite Move that allows Lapras to let an ally ride on its back while speeding up and dealing damage to enemies it bumps into. Using it a second time unleashes waves that also deals damage to enemies it passes through.
Use this move to distract and hinder enemies from securing objectives especially during the Rayquaza teamfight.
These combos are centered on maximizing Water Pulse usage.

Start by disabling a target with Bubble Beam. Then, get close to the target and use Water Pulse. Since Lapras gets a Boosted Attack when it uses Water Pulse, end the combo with a Boosted Attack. The combo can be performed indefinitely. It's best to stack up on Water Pulses for maximum damage. |
These combos utilize Perish Song's instant knockout effect.

While afar, charge at enemies with Larpas Express. After colliding, use Bubble Beam or Ice Beam on any target. Then, use Perish Song and immediately follow up with a Boosted Attack. Do that for all three charges of Perish Song. The combo is best used once Perish Song is upgraded. |
Matchup Notes | ||

Hard Counter | Even Matchup | Easy Matchup |
1. The chart is based on our own experience playing Lapras. 2. Pokemon within each tier are unordered 3. Any Pokemon not shown here are still under investigation. |
While Lapras may be as sturdy as its fellow Defender allies, it is still vulnerable to enemies with debuffs and hard disables. Lapras also has no mobility outside of Lapras Express which can be exploited by stuns and bursty combos.
Pokemon | Explanation |
---|---|
Glaceon | Rating: ★★★★★ • Can kite Lapras and shred through its durability using Icicle Spear or Icy Wind. |
Mamoswine | Rating: ★★★★ • Can constantly disable Lapras with any of its moves and Boosted Attack. |
Buzzwole | Rating: ★★★★ • Can toss Lapras around and prevent it from using its moves with Smack Down, and Superpower or Leech Life. |
Lapras can get the upper hand against these Pokemon if it can spam Water Pulse or Perish Song freely and keep healing itself with its Boosted Attacks. Using the Pokemon's disabling moves will also increase its chances of winning.
Ranged, Fragile Pokemon with High Damage |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon prefer to keep their distance from opponents when fighting. They also have high damage potential that can be dangerous for Lapras. However, they can be defeated easily once Lapras gets close to them. • Head straight for them using Lapras Express, making sure to hit them with the wave, then just keep using Water Pulse or Perish Song until they get knocked out. • Use Ice Beam or Bubble Beam to disable them and prevent them from escaping. |
All-Rounders |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon excel in close combat and rely mostly on their attacks or combos to deal damage. They are also durable enough to tank Lapras damage. However, they do need to go toe to toe with Lapras to defeat it, putting them in range of the Pokemon's moves. • Keep using Boosted Attacks to heal Lapras while spamming Water Pulse or Perish Song to deal damage and give the Pokemon a Boosted Attack. • Use Ice Beam or Bubble Beam to disable them and deal additional damage. |
High-mobility Pokemon with Burst Damage |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon are incredibly agile and deal high burst damage. Fortunately, Lapras can tank a lot of their damage and has disabling moves. • Use Ice Beam or Bubble Beam to disable them and stop their momentum, then keep using Water Pulse or Perish song afterwards. • Utilize Lapras' Boosted Attacks to keep it healthy. |
Supporters |
---|
How to Beat |
• These Pokemon usually stick with their allies and rarely venture alone. Although they themselves pose no threat to Lapras, their support capabilities makes them valuable during fights. • Take advantage of them being in close proximity to each other by spamming Water Pulse or Perish Song near them, forcing them scatter. • Use Ice Beam or Bubble Beam to disable them. |
Highly Durable Pokemon |
---|
How to Beat |
• Much like Lapras, these Pokemon are extremely durable, making it difficult for Lapras to take them down alone. With that, it's best to group up with allies to bring them down with the help of Lapras. • Use Ice Beam or Bubble Beam to keep them disabled, then just keep using Water Pulse or Perish Song to deplete their HP. |
Lapras can easily crush Pokemon that have little to no means of preventing it from using Water Pulse or Perish Song, and heal itself with its Boosted Attacks.

Pokemon | Explanation |

Alolan Ninetales Slowbro Wigglytuff | Pokemon with Strong Disables |
• These ally Pokemon are equipped with hard disabling skills and can help absorb most of the damage during team fights. This lets Lapras maneuver freely and provide support from the backlines. These Pokemon also provides hard crowd control that shuts down targets, allowing Lapras to double down on inflicting slow on enemies while contributing damage. | |
Delphox Gardevoir Pikachu | Pokemon with AoE Unite Moves |
• These ally Pokemon deal AoE damage when using their Unite moves, and benefits from Lapras's movement speed when Lapras Express is enabled. These ally Pokemon are also equipped with powerful attacks that they can unleash from a safe distance and help Lapras in pushing lanes and dominating goal zones. | |
Trevenant Urshifu Zacian | Aggressive Frontliners |
• These All-Rounder allies are very sturdy and hard-hitting Pokemon that Lapras can assist to push lanes and secure objectives faster. | |
Comfey Eldegoss Mr. Mime | Dedicated Supporters |
• These ally Pokemon are Supporters that can make Lapras even more sturdier. They synergize well with Lapras and provide the necessary heals, buffs, or shield it needs in order to push lanes, defend allied goal zones, and assist in securing objectives. |

Has the user ride a wave quickly and continuously forward. The user's movement speed increases while riding but decreases if the user hits an obstacle. If the user hit an opposing Pokemon, the user stops in place, dealing damage to and throwing the opposing Pokemon. While the user is riding the wave, one nearby ally Pokemon of the user's choice can ride on its back. If this move is used again, the user stops and launches a wave that continues moving forward, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and throwing them. Ally Pokemon riding on the user's back can dismount and use moves while riding Lapras' back. |
Standard Attack | Becomes a boosted attack with every third attack, launching a blast of water in front of the user. If this blast hits opposing Pokemon, it deals damage to them and restores the user's HP based on Lapras' max HP. |

Lapras' boosted attack healing scales off its Max HP. The higher its Max HP gets, the bigger the heal.
We did some testing to confirm this, and it's found to be on average 3% of max HP per hit or 9% of max HP in total - since Lapras' boosted attack hits thrice in a row.
