Pokemon Farming: Lapras

November 13, 2007 | 50 Comments

Today in Pokemon Farming: Lapras, the Transport Pokemon!

Now, I have done Lapras before, months ago. But this was before I learned to breed move sets! And it is still my favorite, so I thought I’d give it a proper event to share with you all!

Lapras has always been a favorite of mine, it has very impressive HP stats, and good attack and defense stats to boot! Its speed stat is something it lacks in however, but with the good stats in other areas, it can hold its own in a fight.

Tonights Lapras is a tribute to cold upcoming Winter (In Ohio where I live, at least!) and has some nice ice moves to prove it

  • Icebeam-STAB
  • Blizzard-STAB
  • Thunderbolt-nice extra to keep up variety
  • Surf-STAB

Now, I chose to teach it Surf, not because im too lazy to teach it something rare, but because HM surf is a powerful accurate move, besides being utilitarian. I also want to pay tribute to its status as the Pokemon Sea Ferry!

Tonights Lapras will all be named after wintry things!

LaprasToday in Farmer’s Favorite Week: Lapras!

Continuing with our theme of picking our personal favorites, I picked (easily for me!) Lapras. Me and Lapras go way back, I’ve always loved it for its high HP since back in my Red/Blue days, despite it weaknesses to electric moves. On a side note, if anyone has played Pokemon Snap for N64, I would play through the first level only taking pictures of Lapras as a joke to my friends (it was funny at least at the time). If you don’t know about Snap, you’re missing out, it was so weirdly fun.

Anyway, Lapras has always been a staple in my ‘main’ party, and I make it a point to catch one (Or receive one) as soon I can. In D/P, you can get the little wonder after you beat the E4, in a special room on Victory road, and you have to do a series of double battles with a girl to go surfing to catch him. Complicated? You bet. I thought it was worth it! I would love to do nothing more than save you all the trouble though, so today is your day for a fresh Lapras baby!
