An average hides the shape of a group. These four points say where the money actually sits among Lapras cards.
The counting sections and the price sections do not share a denominator. This group holds 48 cards, but only 47 of them carry a price. Every figure about money on this page — the typical price, the quarters, the bands, the ladder — is counted on those 47, while every figure about how many cards exist is counted on all 48.| Price band | Cards | Share |

Back to summaryHow much HP and damage Lapras Pokémon cards print

| HP | 60 | 108 | 120 | 190 | 320 | 48 |
| Biggest attack | 10 | 40 | 70 | 90 | 210 | 47 |
Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
HP printed on the 48 Lapras cards that carry one. The typical card is 120 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.
Half of these cards sit between 108 and 190 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.
| Group | Share | Value |

| Lowest | 18.8% of the highest | 60 HP |
| Lower quarter | 33.8% of the highest | 108 HP |
| Typical | 37.5% of the highest | 120 HP |
| Upper quarter | 59.4% of the highest | 190 HP |
| Highest | 100.0% of the highest | 320 HP |
The largest printed damage number on each of the 47 Lapras cards that print one. The typical card hits for 70. Bar length is that number against the hardest hitter in the group.
Half of these cards hit between 40 and 90. Attack text that adds a condition is not counted here — only the printed number.

| Cards with a special rule | 14 | 29.2% |
Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.
Each track is the whole of the 48 Lapras cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The four rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.
| Group | Share | Value |

| Legal in Standard today | 27.1% | 13 cards |

Cheapest first. Each card opens its own price page. Prices exclude shipping, which on a card at this level is usually more than the card.
These six together cost $1.84, against $129.99 for the single dearest Lapras card. The two ends of the same group sit 591× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Lapras".
How Lapras compares with the other Pokémon
"Which Pokémon is the most expensive" has three different answers depending on what you measure, so this section keeps them apart.
Ranked by its single dearest card, Lapras is number 126 of 206 Pokémon, on Ruby & Sapphire #99 at $129.99. By card count it is number 22, and by the price of an ordinary card number 90 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Lapras cards, taken from a daily snapshot of public marketplace listings read on August 14, 2026. They are not offers, they exclude shipping, duty and marketplace fees, and they move. Counts cover only the English cards this site holds on file. Graded prices, population counts, sealed product values and pack odds are not published on this site because no free commercial source provides them.
