Rollout (Japanese: ころがる Roll) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation II. In Generation IV, a Lickitung that levels up while knowing this move will be able to evolve into a Lickilicky.
Effect
Rollout inflicts damage over five turns, doubling in power for each consecutive hit. The power will reset after five turns or if Rollout is interrupted. The power of Rollout is also doubled if Defense Curl has been used previously by the Pokémon and the user has remained in battle since then.

Trivia
- Lickitung, which evolves into Lickilicky when leveled up knowing this move, has been able to learn it in some way since the move's introduction. This trait is shared with AncientPower, which has had a similar history with Piloswine.
- Although the circumstances would be nearly impossible, using Rollout, a level 100 Shuckle can potentially deal the most damage in one single attack through the use of numerous stat boosters, by using Helping Hand, Metronome held item, Power Trick, a Skill Swap to Sniper, and the Defense Curl/Rollout combo. Also, Shuckle's partner must have the ability Flower Gift and the weather must be sunny. On the 10th impact Rollout (used twice), if used against a level 1 Pokemon that has a 4x weakness to Rock and has been hit with negative Defense modifiers (such as Screech), it can deal 213,896,052 damage with a critical hit.
