Lickitung

Lickitung (Japanese: ベロリンガ, HepburnBeroringa) (LICK-it-tung[1]) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Biology

Physiology

Lickitung is a pink, reptilian Pokémon with some white designs on its stomach, legs, and hands. It has a bulky body with a long tail and most importantly, a long tongue.

Behavior

Their tongues are actually the most receptive part of their bodies, even more sensitive than their hands. When they come across unfamiliar objects, they will lick them, as they associate things by texture and taste. Lickitung do not enjoy sourness, however, and will avoid things that are tart. Though Lickitung often chase down people and Pokémon, they are not aggressive. In addition to using their tongues to feel new things, they also use them to detect food particles on others and lick them off to "clean" them, though this always leaves a rather unpleasant odor behind.

Natural Abilities

Lickitung has a tongue which is twice its body length. It uses it for a variety of tasks such as catching its prey, cleaning itself, or attacking enemies, with licks usually causing paralysis when they hit an opponent. Lickitung's saliva on its tongue can easily grip anything, and can also cause a long-lasting itch to its foes.

Diet

It preys on Bug-type Pokémon with its long and extensive tongue.

Evolution

From Generation IV onwards, Lickitung evolves into Lickilicky when leveled up while knowing the move Rollout.

    Benny Lickitung

    Jessie had a Lickitung that she caught in Princess vs. Princess. It licked Ash's Pikachu, Ash's Bulbasaur, and Brock's Vulpix clean. Later in Tricks of the Trade, Jessie accidentally traded her Lickitung for a Wobbuffet.

    Trivia

    • Long before Lickilicky was added, the official Nintendo website claimed that Luigi from the Mario Bros. series was Lickitung's evolution and said website stated that evolving Lickitung required the system to be upside-down while leveling up. This was just an April Fool's joke, but some people actually took it seriously, thus making Luigi a "PokéGod to some extent".
      • Coincidentally, the Generation VI Pokémon Inkay could be evolved at level 30 while holding the Nintendo 3DS upside down, which is similar to the method claimed to evolve Lickitung into Luigi.
    • Lickitung is one of the ten Pokémon that evolves upon knowing a move. In this case, it needs to know the move Rollout.
    • Lickitung was misspelled as 'Likitung' in Kanto Pokérap.

    Origin

    Lickitung is inspired by the Akaname, a Japanese yōkai with a massive tongue and one claw on each foot. The name Akaname means "filth licker" and they're known for licking filthy bathrooms to keep them clean. It may also have drawn inspiration from lizards with extensive tongues.

    Etymology

    The name Lickitung is a combination Licki which symbolizes Licking and Tung which is the intentional misspelling of the word Tongue.

    The name Beroringa is derived from べろ bero (tongue), ベロベロ berobero (onomatopoeia for licking), and possibly ring (referring to the patterns on its body) or a corruption of lingua (which generally refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue).
