    Though it missed out on Shell Smash, Lapras still retains a reasonable boosting move in Dragon Dance. The point of this set is to send Lapras out against a foe who doesn’t threaten it, nab a couple of boosts, Rest if necessary and proceed to sweep. Waterfall is your main Water-type STAB move, and at +1 can deal a lot of damage under the Rain, coupled with a chance to flinch the opponent. Return is used in the third slot to hit foes who may resist Waterfall, such as Gyarados and Rotom-W. However, Ice Shard can be used to provide Lapras with an Ice-type STAB move, as well as letting him hit faster Pokemon. Rest is a must for this set, as it grants Lapras the ability to recover all of its health before attempting to sweep.

    The choice of nature depends on what you want Lapras to outspeed. With Jolly and the given EVs, Lapras can outspeed all positive base 100’s after a single boost. However, Adamant gives you the ability to hit harder, while still outrunning neutral-natured base 100s. Life Orb is the preferred option on this set, as Lapras wants to be hitting as hard as it possibly can; the Attack EVs provided allow Lapras to do just so. The remaining EVs have been placed in Special Defense so Lapras may better take hits aimed at its better defensive side.

    Unlike the Dragon Dancer, this Lapras sacrifices Speed so it may boost both its Attack and Defense stats. Both Curse and Rest are pretty self-explanatory, and the point of the set is essentially the same as the Dragon Dancer: find a good switch-in on whom you can set up, gain a few boosts, and Rest before attempting a sweep. The latter is also very crucial for Lapras' survivability, as it becomes an immense pain to take out once it has a few Curse boosts. Waterfall remains Lapras's best STAB choice, as it packs quite a punch while under the Rain. Toxic is the best option for slot 4, as it lets Lapras beat the likes of Quagsire, Rotom-W, and Jellicent. However, if having only one attacking move does not appeal to you, Ice Shard is the alternative, as it gives Lapras an Ice-type STAB move, as well as priority to bypass the Speed drops as a result of Curse.

    For the choice of item, Leftovers is generally the better way to go if Lapras is only running Waterfall, as the Rain boost means Lapras can afford not to run a Life Orb. However, if you're using both Waterfall and Ice Shard and feel that Rest is all the recovery you need, Life Orb can be used for a push in power. The EVs given maximize Lapras’s special bulk so it may take both physical and special hits once it has obtained a few Curse boosts.



    Altre Opzioni



    Lapras has a rather vast collective movepool, so the options it can utilize are not limited. Lapras can run a generic choice set, as it great physical and special movepools. Due to instant recovery in the form of Rest, Lapras can run a Toxic stalling set with Substitute, Toxic, Rest, and Surf / Ice Beam. However, its bulk falls a bit short of that necessary to abuse it to its fullest potential. Lapras can also use Thunder, Confuse Ray, and Waterfall to pull off a Parafusion set, though Lanturn generally pulls it off better.

    Lapras has access to a fantastic special movepool as well, especially the use of the BoltBeam combo. Thunder can be used, as it receives 100% accuracy under the Rain. Lapras can also be used on a Hail team and abuse a 100% accurate Blizzard. However, because of Hydration, Rain is the best form of weather for Lapras. Ice Breath is an interesting move Lapras can utilize on a special set, as it always results is a critical hit. Sing is a way in which Lapras can provide sleep support; however, the 55% accuracy really is not worth it. Lapras can also utilize a Perish trapper set with the moves Perish Song, Whirlpool, Rest, and Surf / Ice Beam along with a Grip Claw to KO troubling foes.

    Checks & Counters



    When countering Lapras, Jellicent is the first thing to come to mind. With its typing and Water Absorb, it is immune to both Waterfall and Return and resists Ice Shard, and can stall out variants who do not carry Toxic. Ferrothorn is another great counter, as it resists Lapras’s Water-type STAB and can use Lapras as set up fodder. However, Ferrothorn must be wary, as a Waterfall at +6 under the Rain can seriously dent its HP. Quagsire who pack Unaware also wall Lapras, as they can ignore all of its boosts and slowly Earthquake away. However, they must be wary when facing the Curse set, as Lapras can easily outstall Quagsire with Toxic.

    Preventing Lapras from initially setting up is always a good thing to do, as you needn’t fear the consequences later. Thundurus and Whimsicott do a fine job of this, as they can easily Taunt either set thanks to Prankster, and use Thunderbolt and Leech Seed, respectively.

    In general, Fighting-types give Lapras a tough time, since they can easily threaten him before or after it sets up. Conkeldurr deserves a special mention, as it can bypass the Dragon Dance variant’s speed with a STAB super effective Mach Punch. Conkeldurr also does not mind taking a Toxic from the Curse set due to Guts, and can retaliate with a Drain Punch.
