I'm here about Lapras, Lapras work well in Water and
Raindance deck in the early game! Lapras is not good
in the late game or middle game, so he can kill
Mr.Mime and high HP, but if in a good Raindance deck
there has to be some Gust of WInd, I mean if a
Raindance player can afford 4 Blastoise that mean s/he
can afford Gust of Wind. So just Gust of WInd some
other Pokemon out and destroy it. Lapras may have two
good attacks but not good enough, Confuse Ray might
Confuse your opponent but it only do 10 damage,
Raindance's Strategy is to attack big not small, and 3
Water Energy for 30, I don't think that's good,
Dewgong can do better, although Dewgong is a Stage 1.
In the late or middle game your opponent may have some
big Stage 1 or 2 get ready and pump up. Articuno might
be a better choice because if you play a Raindance
right you can get Blastoise second turns. I'm not
saying that Lapras bad, that Lapras won't do any good
in the late game.
