Like do you think pokemon enjoy tickling or do they enjoy being tickled? And which pokemon would you want to tickle?

I would tickle a Zoroark(female) just for fun and to hear her laugh :p
 
Just like with humans, it probably depends on the individual Pokémon. I for one don't enjoy being tickled in the slightest. If the assertion that Pokémon take on similar personalities to their trainers is true, then it's possible none of mine, were they real, would enjoy it either.

Being the one doing the tickling, on the other hand....
 
Tickling a Pokemon may seem fun......till you quickly remember that abilities such as (but not limited to) Static, Cursed Body, and Poison Point exist....
 
No. Tickling a Pokémon can be weird and dangerous, and may cause negative effects like getting poisoned, electrically shocked or getting burnt. It is discouraged.
 
Warning: Tickling may lead to severe injuries and is highly unadvised to do so by word of the experts. It may cause sickness, paralysis, burning, and other highly dangerous effects. The receiver may have their defense and attack lowered, which can render them incompetent for battle. Tickle Pokemon at your own risk.

In all seriousness, it depends on the location (no dirty thoughts), mood, and past experiences of the Pokemon being tickled.
 
I think some pokemon like Ash's Haunter do enjoy tickling as long as they are the ones doing the tickling. I remember that time when Haunter tickled Jessie when she was hanging off from that building.
 
I'm sure it's the same as it is with people. Most people who are genuinely ticklish hate to be tickled, while most people think screwing with someone by tickling them is pretty amusing. People who aren't very ticklish generally don't care about it one way or another except to smirk when a tickler's plan is foiled because they are immune to their attacks.
 
It would probably depend a lot on the Pokemon's personality and the relationship with the Trainer. If the Trainer is just goofing off and having fun, then the Pokemon would probably enjoy it. If the Trainer is acting maliciously--and some consider tickling a low-level act of torture--then no.

Oddly enough, I wrote a scene from a fanfic that involved a Trainer tickling her Golett. How did the Trainer do it? She'd tap him up under his arms near the straps; he'd react by squealing and squirming. It was all in fun and the Golett actually liked it.
 
Tickle Ferroseed or Klinklang and you might end up losing a finger or two :(
On another note, tickling probably doesn't affect Steel types.
