For Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, we rate Lickilicky C-Tier: a niche pick in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon's meta. At 515 BST, it fits the support role. Knock Off with Leftovers is the standard set.
In Ultra Sun & Ultra 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 Ultra Sun & Ultra 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.
