Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 80 Def / 180 SpD
Calm Nature
- Sludge Bomb
- Giga Drain
- Spikes
- Synthesis
Roselia is basically a great fit for almost any team, but in respect to SD Lickilicky, it can take on a good amount of its checks, absorb status, and provide Spikes support. Overall it forms a pretty nice bulky core and the two synergize pretty well.
Mienfoo @ Eviolite
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Impish Nature
- Baton Pass
- Substitute
- Knock Off
- High Jump Kick
I used SD lickilicky a lot before my computer crashed and I always ended up using it with Tects Mienfoo set.
Subpassing is very easy with Foo and allows licki to always set-up a SD. Thanks to regenerator you can do it multiple times around the match also Knock Off can takes away bulky eviolite users such as tangela so licki can use return immediately turning tangela into a 2hko over a three after SD.
Overall just a real nifty offensive core.

Clefairy @ Eviolite
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Soft-Boiled
- Moonblast
- Stealth Rock
- Healing Wish
Clefairy is a great Pokemon for this core, as it can provide Stealth Rock support and Healing Wish support. It also has Magic Guard which prevents it from being worn down by residual damage from burns and poison as well as Stealth Rock, and Soft-Boiled for longevity. Clefairy can also provide Thunder Wave support, but it lacks the moveslot for it. Overall I feel that Clefairy is a perfect fit for SD Lickilicky thanks to the amount of beneficial support it can provide.
edit: EVs in Defense is a valid option too.

Floatzel @ Choice Band
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Waterfall
- Aqua Jet
- Ice Punch
- Return
Ok all though this doesn't really have type synergy, it still works well with lickilicky as licki weakens defensive cores and breaks defensive teams, and floatzel can break offensive ones. CB works better thans specs as licki can bait in pokes like gourgeist and tangela which otherwise wall floatzel. Not much more to say here other than an offensive partners work better with SD licki for obvious reasons
Ninetales @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Fire Blast
- Energy Ball
- Nasty Plot
- Psyshock
Can absorb Will-O-Wisps for the offensive LickiLicky and can take on some of the pokemon that would give it trouble like Gourgeist XL & Gourgeist isn't really going to be doing anything about the switch too. The psychic can also help pick off some fighting types with a Nasty Plot up.
A problem with this though is that Basculin can aqua jet this & knocking it out after rocks or if banded. Basculin does have super power for Lickylicky which does 60-70%. Simipour can also give these two some problems.

Chatot @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Tangled Feet
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Boomburst
- Heat Wave
- Hidden Power [Fighting]
- U-turn
Chatot can decimate offensive teams when given the chance, but is walled pretty easily by defensive cores. Lickilicky can SD and break through those defensive cores and allow for Chatot to sweep, and the redundant Normal typing will hopefully mean that your opponent brings in their Normal checks/counters and depletes them on Lickilicky to make Chatot's life much easier. Lickilicky breaks down the opponent, and Chatot cleans up.
Stoutland (F) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Scrappy
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Frustration
- Wild Charge
- Superpower
- Crunch
i figured since licki teary apart slower und defensive teams, gets rid of items from walls and generally has troubles against offensive teams, we could try and build a sort of normal spam team with scarf stoutland. scarfstoutland actually beats quite a few offense teams, cause while being speedy it still has a quite high amount of attack.
Voting time! 2 each again, I like that
