For those who love playing with dressed Pokemon in Pokemon UNITE as well, Lapras will be one of the characters getting Holowear outfits available as well. Along with additions for Goodra and Sabeye, all three outfits fall in line with Pokemon UNITE's array of Performer Style outfits coming with the current Battle Pass. 

These are expected to come out over the next couple of months. So, you will be able to dress up your Pokemon UNITE Lapras before you know it.
