It had become separated from [[Lapras herd|its family]] and washed onto the shores of [[Tangelo Island]], where it was being abused by [[Three punks|three boys]]. {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunder Shock}} quickly sent the trio running. {{Tracey}} examined Lapras and realized it needed help. He gave Ash some medicine for it, but Lapras refused to take it. Afterwards, they took Lapras to the local [[Pokémon Center]], where [[Nurse Joy]] explained that Lapras was afraid of [[human]]s. Soon, Ash gained Lapras's trust after he saved it from {{TRT}}. Lapras later decided to become a part of Ash's [[party|team]] after Ash promised to reunite it with its family. | ||

Lapras was particularly afraid of all humans, namely because of the actions of [[Three punks|three boys]] who quickly attacked it after it washed up on [[Tangelo Island]]. {{Ash}} and Lapras quickly formed a strong bond after Ash saved it from {{TRT}} in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]''.

It is an empathetic and reliable Pokémon who gained confidence during its time with Ash. Its more playful personality outshone its initial shyness. Lapras was hesitant to rejoin [[Lapras herd|its family]] in ''[[EP113|Viva Las Lapras]]'', though Ash convinced it to do so. When Lapras later appeared in [[Johto]], it was shown to have grown more mature, eventually even taking the leadership of its herd after helping to defeat Team Rocket and save the other Lapras they had stolen. | It is an empathetic and reliable Pokémon who gained confidence during its time with Ash.
