Stats & Training
Bulk defines Lickilicky's stat line. HP and Defense anchor the defensive side, but Speed can't keep up offensively. Tough to catch and worth 3 HP EVs.
Its tongue can extend and contract freely, and it is capable of reaching lengths over 10 times Lickilicky’s height. Beware of the saliva, as it contains corrosive elements.
Lickilicky Weakness
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 Guide
For Sun & Moon, we rate Lickilicky C-Tier: a niche pick in Sun & Moon's meta. At 515 BST, it fits the support role. Knock Off with Leftovers is the standard set.
In Sun & Moon, 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 leaning toward the physical side (base 85 Attack). Defensively? Tanky enough to absorb a few hits. Best used as a support.
In Sun & Moon, run Knock Off, Protect, Heal Bell, and Wish on Lickilicky. Knock Off is the most common pick at 23% usage. This set covers the support role with a mix of damage and utility.
