Lickitung was first mentioned by Jessie in [[EP049| | Lickitung was first mentioned by Jessie in ''[[EP049|So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd]]''; however, she did not use it for another three episodes where it first appeared and had its most central role in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' (the episode in which Jessie caught it was originally scheduled to appear before ''[[EP049|So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd]]''). Lickitung was Jessie's forgotten weapon in the finals of the Queen of the Princesses contest against {{an|Misty}}. After stunningly defeating a borrowed {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} with its effective {{m|Lick}}, Lickitung was defeated by {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}'s {{m|Confusion}} after ignoring Jessie's command for Tackle, ending Jessie's run in the contest. | ||
Jessie used Lickitung rather sparingly for the rest of its time under her possession, making the pink Pokémon her second option, after {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}. Thus, it was one of the least used Pokémon that was owned by a main character. It most often appeared alongside Arbok, {{TP|James|Weezing}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}} when Jessie and [[James]] used all four of their Pokémon in battle. | Jessie used Lickitung rather sparingly for the rest of its time under her possession, making the pink Pokémon her second option, after {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}.

Lickitung, much like James's Victreebel, showed its affection for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} rather openly. Lickitung licked Jessie's face on several occasions, but not nearly as many times as the running gag of Victreebel latching onto James' head. | Lickitung, much like James's Victreebel, showed its affection for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} rather openly.

In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', Lickitung was accidentally traded by Jessie to a Trainer named {{jo|Benny}} for his {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} during a commotion at the Pokémon Swap Meet. As Team Rocket's scheme to steal Pokémon with a rigged trading device is discovered by the crowd, Lickitung's [[Poké Ball]] was dropped into the trading machine when Jessie was knocked backwards by [[Magikarp salesman]] who was escaping James, and is swapped with Benny's Poké Ball already in the machine; the person Benny had been planning to trade with had changed his mind at the last minute. Jessie soon realized the trade when she sent Lickitung out to battle {{Ash}}, and the passive Wobbuffet emerged instead. | In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', Lickitung was accidentally traded by Jessie to a Trainer named {{jo|Benny}} for his {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} during a commotion at the Pokémon Swap Meet.
