Bubble Beam Effect

Grants the user a shield and has the user spray bubbles in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits. After the bubbles fly a set distance, they slowly float for a short time. Opposing Pokemon hit by a floating bubble are enveloped by it and left unable to act for a short time.

How to Use Bubble Beam

Lock on a Single Target

In most cases, moving Bubble Beam's move aim on a single target is the best way to use the move. This ensures that at least one target gets damaged and stun.

Utilize the Shield

Utilize Bubble Beam's shield to allow Lapras to soak more damage. Although Bubble Beam is a damage and disabling move, using it just for the shield can be useful in certain situations.

Aim for Grouped Opponents

Aim Bubble Beam at grouped opponents to utilize its stun effect. Since the move creates bubbles that disables a target they hit, using Bubble Beam on enemies that are close to each other allows Lapras to disable multiple targets at once.

Bubble Beam Patch History

1.16.2.8 Shield increased by 15%.
1.10.1.3 Cooldown increased from 7s to 9s.
