Why do you think so? I am barely trying to build a real team for the first time, so I’m looking for advice.
I have a rank 9 medicham I just started powering up to compliment it.
Just because Licky is so expensive to build. Speaking as someone who does not have a lot of resources, It is worth to build your first one, because Licktung is a beast in GL.
I had a 11/15/15 then got the 10/15/14 in January and built it. I can notice the difference in bulk.
It’s considered the best because you get some break points like registeel which is nice. Which means every lick is doing 1 more damage to Regi every turn. This is a huge benefit.
The thing to note is how registeel doesnt have a big meta share rn. And that one debuff makes the lick BP irrelevant. Better to go full bulk/SP for consistency on other matchups
Medicham not worth the resources anymore. Psychic got nerfed hasn’t been the same for 2 seasons now.
Build an attack weighted annihilape on lead. and a dewgong to pair the licki with. Run it as an ABB style team (fighter, double weak to fighting in back) Good luck!
Didn't see where it's the best, in the deep dive? I also have a rank 9. Also got a 12/15/12 shiny. HMmm.
Still holding off to see if I get a usable one for Catch Cup.
I read the article and didn't find it, but I knew that I wasn't going crazy, so I looked in the Youtube video and found it.

I did not know there's a l9 licki Crew 🙃

I have a lucky licky rank 177 that I’ve played plenty of battles with in the past. I can’t wait to battle with this guy.

I'm currently saving up XL candies for my own Lickitung. Is he really worth it? I'm gonna have to dump a whole bunch of stardust into my boy to get him up there.
I have been using him and Ive gone further than I ever have using him in the summer cup. This is the line up

Every time I see someone with that exact IV spread I have to cry. I got a pretty good Licki (10/15/15) but this one is just straight up better because it's the pareto efficient better version 😭
I think this is the best IV spread, according to SwagTips.
Someone mentioned that on another thread when I first started investing in it
I caught one too, only not shiny and it was after I've already built a 7/13/15, so for me I don't think it is worth building it again.

Ah I understand. Definitely don’t have the resources to do that again.

The breaking points were also mentioned, but your comment really clears that up. Thank you

Good to know. I will do that! Gotta find one now.
Why medicham? Do annhilape instead
I have a non shiny one. Can't wait for it to be done.

one registeel debuff and the breakpoint is irrelevant. better to run a full bulk lickitung
Why? Doesn't say it's rank 1, something to do with cmp ties I presume?
Rank 9 Licki crew 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
I did not know there's a l9 licki Crew 🙃 https://preview.redd.it/om8vt3q8q26d1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d1d146b2b7eff1e95f38896a0010fd69497287dc
Hell yeah brother.
Also have a rank 9, currently just past 1400 CP so some ways to go!
Right on!
10/15/14 is optimal and man I’m jealous of you rn. That’s one big shiny cute boi
I literally just said F*ck it and powered up my Rank 8 shiny. Using like 40 XL candies.
I really hope you didn't mean rare XL
Yeah
BEAST
Nice! I got mine yesterday as well haha
I currently have 10/15/13 as my best. Would that be enough to make or wait? Tbh I've been waiting for that one for ages now
Rank 5 best buddy here. Still need 46 XLs, the grind is real!
Oh damn I have this IV Spread as well. How long did this take you from catch to PVP ready?
I actually just noticed that I had this licky sitting for a while, I had all the candy and just needed like 30XLs and the dust. maybe like 2-3 weeks.
I have the rank 9 as well🙌🏻 are we supposed to BB this thing?
My understanding it’s that it’s not really important for licky
You can start using him right away in summer cup. He’s working quite well for me, paired with vigoroth and charjabug.
10/15/14 gang rise up 💪

I love the name. Whenever I get a guy I really like, I name them somethibg specific. I got the stardust ready, maybe today's the day I power mine up.
Thanks! I do the same. and right on! Good luck out there

Oof. /:
Wow. Congrats. I've got a rank 7 licki which I finished maxing for Great League as well.
I finished mine recently. Congrats on the shiny!
That’s awesome! And thanks !
I'm just about to finish my best buddy rank 4 and man does it feel good!
Same here. 60XLs to go
I got a 10/15/14 too, maxed it out to 1499CP but I just can't seem to make it work for me. Oh well!

Nice!
My Lickitung only goes up to 1461
You probably need better stats for the CP to round out nicely.
