[SET COMMENTS]
Lapras's role on Ice teams is being bulky on Ice teams and providing immunity to Water-type attacks. Lapras uses Freeze-Dry to get past Water-type Pokemon such as Toxapex and Seismitoad. Choice Specs is used to give it a good boost of power allowing it to be a strong wallbreaker. Its EV investment allows it to be as tanky and strong as possible while outspeeding uninvested Tyranitar. Water Absorb allows it to come in on Water attacks for Ice teams and health back up some of its health.
All of its teammates appreciate Lapras's ability to switch-in to Water-type attacks. Vanilluxe provides another Aurora Veil setter for Ice teams. Galarian Darmanitan can break past Steel-types such as Ferrothorn and Bronzong with Flare Blitz. Avalugg can clear entry hazards with Rapid Spin and can tank physical attacks such as Barraskewda's Close Combat, while Froslass, Mamoswine, and Piloswine can set up hazards for Lapras. Mamoswine and Piloswine also provide Lapras with an Electric-type immunity. Weavile can revenge kill threats such as Dracozolt, Tyranitar, and Drednaw with Icicle Crash and Low Kick.
