ATTACK: 161 |
DEFENSE: 181 |
STAMINA: 220 |
MAX CP: 2359 |
Lickilicky is the evolved form of Lickitung. We expect it to cost 50 Lickitung Candy to evolve a Lickitung into a Lickilicky.
PLACE IN THE META: Lickilicky may be comical Gym defender, but it usefulness in Pokémon GO stops there. Being a Normal-type, it will have no purpose. Lickilicky's stats, while an improvement over Lickitung's, are still not up to par and won't allow for this Pokémon to have any viability.
Lickilicky is a pure Normal-type. This makes it weak to Fighting-type attacks, as well as "immune" to Ghost-type attacks. All other types of attacks will do neutral damage.
LIKELY MOVEPOOL: Out of the Fast Moves we currently have in Pokémon GO, the following are the ones that seem most likely to be given to Lickilicky:
Out of the Charged Moves we currently have in Pokémon GO, the following are the ones that seem most likely to be given to Lickilicky:
Should Niantic add any new moves, the following are good candidates for Lickilicky's movepool:
LOOKING AHEAD: Looking beyond Generation 4, Lickilicky gains no evolution, exclusive Z-Move, or Mega Evolution.
