Lapras Raid Counters Guide

Lapras

Lapras is a Water/Ice-type tier 3 raid boss in Pokémon GO. It is weak to Electric, Rock, Fighting, and Grass type attacks. Also, it can be shiny!

After the raid, Lapras can be caught in the following CP ranges:

• 1435 – 1509 CP (Level 20, no weather boost)
• 1794 – 1886 CP (Level 25, Rainy and Snow weather)

Lapras is soloable, but only with top, high-level counters, so keep this in mind! It is a very tanky defender, so groups of 2-4 are recommended depending on player levels and available counters.
