LickitungSouthern Islands #16 Pokémon Card

Lickitung is a Normal-type Pokémon first introduced in Generation I, known for its remarkably long and prehensile tongue, which it uses for a variety of purposes, from exploring its surroundings to capturing prey. This pink, bipedal Pokémon is often found in grasslands and forests, where it can easily forage for insects and other small creatures. Its tongue, which can extend up to six feet, is not only sticky but also possesses anaesthetic properties, allowing it to paralyze its targets before consuming them. In the anime, Lickitung is perhaps best known for being one of Jessie's Pokémon in the original series, where its unpredictable tongue often led to comedic situations. It evolves into Lickilicky when traded while holding a GBA (Generations III-IV) or when leveled up while knowing Rollout (Generation VIII). Its unique biological features and comical appearance have made it a memorable figure within the Pokémon universe, representing the diverse and imaginative creature designs that define the franchise.
