Whenever LICKITUNG comes across something new, it will unfailingly give it a lick. It does so because it memorizes things by texture and by taste. It is somewhat put off by sour things. |
| FireRed | Its tongue is twice the length of its body. It can be moved like an arm for grabbing food and attacking. |
| LeafGreen | Its tongue can be extended like a chameleon’s. It leaves a tingling sensation when it licks enemies. |
| Emerald | Whenever it sees something unfamiliar, it always licks the object because it memorizes things by texture and taste. It is somewhat put off by sour things. |
| Diamond Pearl |
Instead of hands, it uses its tongue, which is twice its height. Its sticky saliva grips anything. |

Whenever Lickitung comes across something new, it will unfailingly give it a lick. It does so because it memorizes things by texture and by taste. It is somewhat put off by sour things. |
| Ultra Sun | It 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 Moon | It licks filth clean with its tongue. Whatever it licks always stinks afterward, so whether it’s really clean is...questionable. |
| Let's Go Pikachu Let's Go Eevee |
Its tongue spans almost seven feet and moves more freely than its forelegs. Its licks can cause paralysis. |
| Sword | If 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. |
| Shield | Bug 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 Diamond Shining Pearl |
Instead of its hands, it uses its tongue, which can stretch to twice this Pokémon’s height. Lickitung’s sticky saliva grips anything. |
| Legends: Arceus | Wields 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. |
