==Trivia==<br />
* Lickitung was originally to be called ''Tonguetyd'' but this changed before the release of the English versions of {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.<br />
* Even though it was repeatedly stated to attack using licks, it was not able to learn {{m|Lick}} until [[Generation II]].<br />
* Prior to Generation IV, Lickitung can learn {{m|Rollout}} by [[TM04]] during [[Generation II]], or when purified in {{g|XD}} or [[move tutor|tutored]] the move in {{game|Emerald}}. In Diamond and Pearl, Lickitung [[Methods_of_evolution#Others|needs to know the move Rollout to evolve]]. Of course, it could not evolve into {{p|Lickilicky}} before this, because it had not been created yet. This makes it and {{p|Piloswine}} the only Pokémon which met their Generation IV evolution criteria in games of prior generations.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
It may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, commonly the [[wp:Blue-tongued skink|blue-tongued lizard]].<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Lickitung's name is a combination and corruption of ''lick'' and ''tongue''. The ''bero'' in ''Beroringa'' may be derived from ベロ ''bero'', tongue, べろべろ, ''berobero'', an {{wp|onomatopoeia}} for a licking sound, or べろべろ嘗める ''beroberonameru'', to lick up with one's tongue. ''Ringer'' is most likely derived from English ''ring'', referring to the patterns on its body. It is also possible that ''ringa'' is a corruption of the English word ''lingua'', which refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue [http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lingua].<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Schlurp - This name comes from the word ''slurp''.<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Excelangue - ''Excellent'' means excellent, and ''langue'' means tongue. The word as a whole sounds like ''excellent''.<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 내루미 ''Naerumi''<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Lickitung was originally to be called ''Tonguetyd'' but this changed before the release of the English versions of {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.<br />
* Even though it was repeatedly stated to attack using licks, it was not able to learn {{m|Lick}} until [[Generation II]].<br />
* Prior to Generation IV, Lickitung can learn {{m|Rollout}} by [[TM04]] during [[Generation II]], or when purified in {{g|XD}} or [[move tutor|tutored]] the move in {{game|Emerald}}. In Diamond and Pearl, Lickitung [[Methods_of_evolution#Others|needs to know the move Rollout to evolve]]. Of course, it could not evolve into {{p|Lickilicky}} before this, because it had not been created yet. This makes it and {{p|Piloswine}} the only Pokémon which met their Generation IV evolution criteria in games of prior generations.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
It may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, commonly the [[wp:Blue-tongued skink|blue-tongued lizard]].<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Lickitung's name is a combination and corruption of ''lick'' and ''tongue''. The ''bero'' in ''Beroringa'' may be derived from ベロ ''bero'', tongue, べろべろ, ''berobero'', an {{wp|onomatopoeia}} for a licking sound, or べろべろ嘗める ''beroberonameru'', to lick up with one's tongue. ''Ringer'' is most likely derived from English ''ring'', referring to the patterns on its body. It is also possible that ''ringa'' is a corruption of the English word ''Lingua'', which refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue [http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lingua].<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Schlurp - This name comes from the word ''slurp''.<br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Excelangue - ''Excellent'' means excellent, and ''langue'' means tongue. The word as a whole sounds like ''excellent''.<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 내루미 ''Naerumi''<br />
