Lickitung (Japanese:ベロリンガBeroringa) is aNormal-typePokémon introduced inGeneration I.

Itevolves intoLickilicky whenleveled up while knowingRollout.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer toGame data→Evolution data for these details.)

Biology

Lickitung is a bipedalamphibianPokémon with a round body and a thick, powerful tail. It has soft, pink skin with curved yellow lines on its belly and a yellow ring marking on each knee. It has a thumb-like claw on each hand and a single large nail on each foot. There is a yellow spot on its palms and the soles of its feet. It has beady eyes and a long, prehensile tongue, with nerves that extend its entire length. The tongue is likely connected to its tail, which twitches and retracts when the tongue is pulled.

At over 6 feet 6 inches (2 meters), Lickitung's tongue is twice as long as its body. Sticky, smelly saliva coats its tongue, which causes a tingling sensation when touched and can cause rashes if not cleaned off. It is used for capturing prey (mainlyBug-type Pokémon),reaching for berries, exploring its environment, attacking, and cleaning; although the effectiveness of its cleaning is questionable as its saliva leaves behind its smell. Lickitung's saliva can also be used as a strong adhesive after cooking it. Lickitung remembers things by their texture and taste, although it apparently dislikes sour things. The tongue is both dexterous and powerful enough to lift people, as seen in thePokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire episodeDeceit and Assist. When capturing prey, Lickitung prefers swallowing them whole after paralyzing them with its tongue. Lickitung can be found ingrassy plains and meadows.

Evolution

Lickitung evolves intoLickilicky.

Ultra SunIt checks out whatever's around it by licking everything. If you don't clean off a spot where it's licked you, you'll break out in a rash!
Ultra MoonIt licks filth clean with its tongue. Whatever it licks always stinks afterward, so whether it's really clean is...questionable.

SwordIf this Pokémon's sticky saliva gets on you and you don't clean it off, an intense itch will set in. The itch won't go away, either.
ShieldBug Pokémon are Lickitung's main food source. This Pokémon paralyzes its prey with a lick from its long tongue, then swallows the prey whole.
Brilliant DiamondInstead of its hands, it uses its tongue, which can stretch to twice this Pokémon's height. Lickitung's sticky saliva grips anything.
Shining Pearl
Legends: ArceusWields its long tongue deftly, as though it were an arm. The Pokémon's viscous saliva, once it has been collected and boiled down, yields a strong and highly useful adhesive.
