Lickilicky (M) @ Choice BandAbility: Cloud NineEVs: 160 HP / 252 Atk / 48 Def / 48 SpDBrave Nature- Hammer Arm- Power Whip- Earthquake- Return

This is my weather killer Licky, it can really mess up any weather instigator.Hammer Armworks for Tyranitar and Abomasnow, and provides a 5-type coverage (including Ferrothorn and Blissey).Power Whipcan take care of Hippowdon or Politoed (or Kyogre and Groudon, but let’s be real).Earthquakedemolishes Ninetales, while providing the best physical move in the game.Returnis for STAB, and with Choice Band, it can provide some serious damage.Cloud Nine ensures you don’t get OHKO’d by STAB weather boosted moves and Licky doesn’t take residual damage from Sandstorm and Hail. EVs: Max out its attack, and even out the defenses with the rest of your EVs.This guy is best used on your own weather teams, as it stops the opposing team from keeping their weather around, and you can set up your own freely. Given Licky’s low Speed and wide coverage, he actually makes a decent Choice Bander regardless of opposing weather.

This set is killer:

Lickilicky (M) @ Choice BandAbility: ObliviousEVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 DefBrave Nature- Explosion- Brick Break- Earthquake- Fire Punch

Ever tried a Choice Banded Explosion? It’s killer. Explosion is for a last ditch effort if you’re about to die. EVs give it lots of bulk. Brick Break is for breaking of screens, and just a good move to have. Earthquake is for killing things while making sure that you can hit Steel types hard. Fire Punch is mainly for Gengar, since it resists the rest of the set, while hitting Bug/Grass types resisting most of this set. You could have pretty much any Physical move in there.

Lickilicky @ Choice SpecsAbility: Cloud Nine / Own TempoEVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 6 DefModest NatureIce BeamThunderboltFlamethrowerSurf / Shadow Ball

Specs set, he has a pretty good base Special Attack. All moves are for coverage depending on what you need.

Note: You could go for the inaccurate but powerfulBlizzard,Thunder, andFire Blast.

K, for some reason, no one has posted standard cleric Lickylicky.____

Lickilicky @ Iron BallAbility: Own TempoEVs: 252 Attack / 252 Def / 4 HPBrave Nature- Gyro Ball- Power Whip / Zen Headbutt- Return- Swords Dance

Gyro Balldeals a lot of damage since Lickilicky is so slow, and its holding Iron Ball so it can boost the power. This also works on Fairy types.Power Whipis to deal with Ground and Rock types, This also works with Water types. /Zen HeadbuttFor Fighting types.Returndeals a lot of damage, especially with STAB and Swords Dance.Swords Danceis to raise Attack.

Lickilicky @ Life OrbAbility: Own Tempo / Cloud NineEVs: 244 HP / 252 Atk / 12 SpDBrave Nature- Belly Drum- Power Whip / Zen Headbutt- Hammer Arm- Return / Double-Edge

This is a great Trick Room set! With minimal Speed (even 0 IVs in it) this will strikefirstand hard with a Trick Room attack. Guess what? Hammer Arm lowers your Speed even more! Life Orb is for Belly-Drum boosted Return, doing major damage, but keep in mind that it could have Sitrus Berry or Leftovers to heal, too! Enjoy!

Lickilicky @ LeftoversAbility: ObliviousEVs: 252 Def / 252 SpD / 4 Speor4 HPTimid NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Substitute- Rest- Protect- Toxic / Dragon Tail (Beware Fairies though)

When I looked at this guys stats, Abilities, and movepool, I saw more defensive potential than offensive, so try this: Minimize your Attack to minimize confusion damage because being confused isn’t as bad as not being able to use anything, which is why this set has Oblivious and not Own Tempo. I’m not confident about Rest as I haven’t had much time with this set yet. This would probably work best after some entry hazards have been set, and even better if you can baton pass in some buffs and/or ingrain and/or aqua ring (and yes that can be done).

Wifi Signal (Lickilicky) (M) @ Chesto BerryAbility: ObliviousEVs: 200 HP / 148 Def / 160 SpDImpish Nature- Curse- Amnesia- Rest- Return

This is an old set I found on my Pokemon showdown, I used it a few times, and it tanked everything. If the opponent is physical, spam Curse. Rest if you get to low HP, then get Special Defense up with Amnesia. Return for damage. I don’t need coverage because you can PP stall with it too.

A very nice Rest/Sleep Talk set, including Curse to raise your Attack and Defense, getting bulky and powerful all at once, and Body Slam to inflict damage and to have a chance to paralyze your opponent. Watch out for Ghost-types, though, unless you have Toxic Spikes set up, turning it into a stall-fest! Enjoy!

This moveset takes advantage of paralysis!

Lickilicky @ Lum BerryAbility: Cloud Nine / Own TempoEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 DefAdamant Nature- Body Slam- Lick- Smelling Salts- Earthquake / Hammer Arm / Focus Punch

Strategy: Paralyze foe withBody SlamorLick, then cure/hopefully faint them withSmelling Salts! You can use your coverage move either after paralyzing a threat or straight off the bat!Lum Berryhelps with your longevity.

Do note that this Lickilicky setdoesn’treally benefit from the halving of a foe’s Speed, as with having only50base speed itself, Lickilicky could still be out-sped by paralyzed foes.Don’tuseHammer Armif you’re worried about being out-sped!
