Perhaps because it's gone 21 years without changing one bit, but I've never seen anyone discuss Lapras. I'm convinced it barely has any fans. /vp/, tell me otherwise.
I love using it in battle spot as a check to duck teams.
Lapras is my absolute favorite Pokemon.
There's not much more to say. It gets Dragon Dance and Curse for some reason but I usually stick with a bulky Boltbeaming Lapras.

It has a really cool design. Competitively, it could've done with its own Z-move like Alolan Raichu and Snorlax, but as it is now it's a good answer to rain mode given its bulk, Water Absorb, and Freeze-Dry.
Laprium Z transforms any Ice move it uses into a 170 BP Ice move of the same variant of the Ice move selected (physical or special) AND it insta-freezes. That'd probably make it OU since both DD physical could run it and special could run it.
For you, /vp/:

Gen II's being Lapras's unofficial theme song, and Gen III's being my personal favorite to hum.

It's one of the 13 pokemon I breed so I can use them in my playthroughs. It's the only water pokemon I play with since about D/P (I only started breeding in D/P). I'd say that counts as being a fan.
That damn loch ness monsta owe me $3.50
I feel as though they're afraid to touch Lapras. It's since in some really early artwork, so it was probably one of the first pokémon ever designed. I think someone at GF loves it, and for that reason they don't want to give it a mega or a prevo, because they don't want to mess it up.
snek unrelated.

It's not one of my absolute favorites but it's up there. It's one of my favorite ice types, one of my favorite water types and one of my favorite gen 1 pokemon in general
>>31259577
I have one from 2004 and she's been literally everywhere. Nessie is one of my best water types.

It isn't endangered in Alola anymore according to the rotomdex. It's actually overabundant.
>>31259577
Not one of my all-time favorites, but one of my gen 1 faves. Such a cute pokemon, and so aesthetically pleasing to look at.
It was one of my favorite Ice types untilWeavile started contending. Its hard when one is really viable in the format you often play while the other has to struggle to put in work.

I've gone to completion twice.
Its design is simple, it's got great bulk and has two good STABs for playthroughs, and it's cute. Lapras was/is still my bro in HGSS.
Lapras is cute and memorable. I've never used one however.
