Origin

Lapras is based on the fabled Loch Ness Monster in Scotland. The beast and this Pokémon resemble an extinct lodge of marine reptiles known as Plesiosauria. Lapras's beat and horn may be inspired by placodonts. Its intelligence, singing, and rarity tin can be comparable to some cetaceans, especially blueish whales and humpback whales. Its long cervix and robust trunk may besides be inspired past the mastheads and hulls of Viking ships. Its Gigantamax grade may be based on a cruise transport or possibly a music box or an ocarina.

Name origin

Lapras is a corruption of Laplace.

Laplace may be a reference to Pierre-Simon Laplace, a mathematician who wrote several books on the mathematical properties of the sea and tides. Alternatively, Laplace may be derived from la place (French for seat), referring to how passengers sit on its dorsum like a seat to exist ferried beyond bodies of water. It may also exist derived from lapis lazuli, a bright blue gem.
