 ===Origin===
-It may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, particularly the {{wp|blue-tongued skink}} or maybe even {{wp|chameleons}}. It also shares traits with {{wp|anteaters}}. Lickitung could also be an ''{{wp|Iguanodon}}'', as it shares its characteristic "thumbs" with it. Licktung may be based on the {{wp|Akaname}}, a mythical {{wp|yokai}} with a single claw on each foot and a gigantic tongue. Akaname are known to lick filth out of bath-houses, similar to Lickitung's habit of licking dirty things clean.
