Ash's Lapras (Japanese: サトシのラプラス Satoshi's Laplace) was the first Pokémon obtained by Ash Ketchum in the Orange Islands. It had been separated from its family, so Ash promised to reunite them. It served as the main transportation through the islands until its family was found on the way back to Pallet Town. Its voice actor in both Japanese and English is 愛河里花子 Rikako Aikawa.

Ash won a race against Cissy riding on Lapras in Fit to be Tide against Cissy and her Blastoise, gaining his first Orange League badge in the process. Lapras was also used against a Gengar in the final battle against Drake in the Orange League. The cliffhanger of Hello Pummelo was the collision of attacks between the two. Enter the Dragonite began with the revelation that the collision had knocked out both Pokémon.

Ash reuniting with his Lapras, which is now an adult.

Ash was briefly reunited with Lapras in the episode Lapras of Luxury, during which it was revealed to have become the leader of its herd.

Lapras appeared with the other Pokémon Ash no longer has in Spurt!, the opening created for the tenth anniversary of the franchise.
