Collector Insights

Lapras is a Water-type Pokémon with 130 HP and a weakness to Lightning attacks multiplied by two. Its sole attack, Aqua Wash, requires four Water Energy to deal 70 damage and allows the player to transfer two Energy cards from the opponent’s Active Pokémon to their hand. The card features a retreat cost of three Colorless Energy, reflecting its basic movement requirements. Designed by artist Kazuma Koda, Lapras is part of the Sword & Shield series, released on February 7, 2020, as a Rare card marked with regulation symbol D. The Pokémon’s flavor text highlights its intelligence and kindness, portraying it as a graceful sea-dweller whose song resonates across the ocean. Its straightforward mechanics emphasize strategic resource management through Energy manipulation. This card offers a balanced blend of utility and simplicity, aligning with its thematic role as a serene, aquatic companion.

A smart and kindhearted Pokémon, it glides across the surface of the sea while its beautiful song echoes around it.
