#56 Lapras - Lost Thunder (sm8)

Lapras is a Water-type Pokémon from the Sun & Moon series, featured in the Lost Thunder set released on November 2, 2018. It has 120 HP and requires two Colorless Energy to retreat. The card includes an ability called Go for a Swim, allowing the player to look at the top two cards of their deck and rearrange them during their turn. Its primary attack, Ice Beam, costs one Water and one Colorless Energy, dealing 50 damage and flipping a coin to potentially Paralyze the opponent’s Active Pokémon. Lapras has a weakness to Metal-type attacks, which deal double damage. The flavor text highlights its historical near-extinction due to poaching but notes its resurgence thanks to protective regulations. Artist Sekio designed the card, which is classified as a Rare card. This Pokémon’s design and mechanics reflect its thematic connection to aquatic environments and conservation efforts.
