Lickilicky's Normal typing leaves it vulnerable to Fighting. It shrugs off Ghost-type attacks completely. Lickilicky's overall bulk (110/95/95) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.

Lickilicky Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Guide

  • For Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, we rate Lickilicky C-Tier: a niche pick in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire's meta. At 515 BST, the stats are spread pretty evenly. Swords Dance with Life Orb is the standard set.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, watch for Lucario (Fighting) when using Lickilicky. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about. Lickilicky has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • Own Tempo prevents confusion. That's the one you want on Lickilicky. Cloud Nine is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Oblivious works too if your team needs something different.

  • Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. On offense, Lickilicky is a physical attacker with base 85 Attack. Defensively? Tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, run Swords Dance, Explosion, Knock Off, and Earthquake on Lickilicky. Swords Dance is the most common pick at 0% usage. Explosion provides reliable STAB damage.

Game Availability

Available in 12 titles since its debut in Diamond & Pearl, Lickilicky spans 7 generations of Pokemon games. It's accessible through wild encounters in a solid number of games.
