+ | *Rockruff's split evolution follows two common trends of small quadrupedal canine Pokémon: some, such as [[Growlithe]] and [[Vulpix]] evolve in more "adult" but still animal-like quadrupedal forms, while others like [[Fennekin]] and [[Zorua]] become bipedal and anthropomorphic upon evolving. The Midday and Dusk forms follows the former, while the Midnight form follows the latter. |
+ | *Lycanroc and its pre-evolution, [[Rockruff]], are the only {{type|rock}}-type Pokémon that can't learn [[Sandstorm]]. |
||
+ | *Lycanroc 's Dusk form bears resemblance to "Tiger (Tiger of the Wind)" from "Monster Ranchers". |

Midday and Dusk form Lycanroc is based on a grey wolf, with elements of a fox or a dingo while Midnight form Lycanroc is based on a werewolf, with its red eyes, bared teeth and folded ears resembling a stereotypical "mad dog". |

Alternatively, Midday and Dusk Lycanroc may be based on the "voluntary" werewolf (a version that changes from man to wolf at will and keeps control of its mind) while Midnight Lycanroc may be based on the "involuntary" werewolf (a version that turns into a monstrous man-wolf hybrid on a full moon and becomes a vicious rampaging beast). |

||
+ | |||
+ | Lycanroc may also be based on the extinct Japanese wolf or the ezo wolf. The Midday form's persistent nature when it hunts and the small rocks on Midnight form's waist are similar to the extinct thylacine/Tasmanian tiger. Tasmanian tiger is a wolflike marsupial which has stripes on its lean back and is known for its persistent, shy, yet brutal nature. |

Template:PokéBoxPanelLycanroc (Japanese: ルガルガン, Hepburn: Rugarugan) is a rock-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII. It is the evolved form of Rockruff.
Biology
Physiology
In its Midday Form, Lycanroc resembles a quadrupedal wolf, having brown fur with white markings around its paws, neck, and tail. It has a long bushy tail, pointed ears, and blue eyes, and the pebbles around its neck as a Rockruff have now grown into long, rocky spikes resembling the rays of a sun.
In its Midnight Form, Lycanroc is a slouched bipedal wolf, with dark red fur and a thick mane that runs from its back to the top of its head. It has a short, stubby tail, folded ears and eyes that glow bright red with no visible iris or sclera. A fringe of black fur hangs over its face, and two pointed rocks emerge from either side of its waist, which is similar to the extinct thylacine's stripes.
In its Dusk Form, Lycanroc resembles the Midday form. It has orange fur, green eyes, and a mane that runs from its back to its head, which resembles the Midnight Form's mane. Whenever it attacks, its eyes can turn red to make it look like the Midnight Form.
Characteristics
Lycanroc is the evolved form of Rockruff. As Rockruff nears evolution, it becomes more aggressive and prone to howling loudly. It then runs away and disappears, only returning to it's trainer once it has evolved.
Behavior
Midday form
The midday form of Lycanroc tend to live in mountains. They are solitary hunters and avoid making packs as to prevent disputes. However, they are fiercely loyal to a trainer that had accepted them during their rambunctious time as a Rockruff.
Midnight form
The midnight form of Lycanroc prefers to let its enemy get the first hit before delivering a devastating counterattack. They are predisposed to violence and easy to get excited by a worthy opponent, signified with their glowing eyes. They will not accept trainers that they feel are poor battlers or give questionable orders.
Dusk form
The dusk form of Lycanroc are usually cool, calm and collected, and very loyal to the trainers they deeply trusted, as well as containing a powerful fighting spirit. When a battle gets heated, they choose to attack directly or use counterattacks that inflict double damages on their opponents. Overall, the dusk form of Lycanroc has a mixed personality, with traits from both the Midday and Midnight forms.
Evolution
Lycanroc is the evolved form of Rockruff, at level 25. Rockruff evolves into a different form of Lycanroc depending on the version of the game. If it evolves in Pokémon Sun, it will become the Midday Form; whereas if it evolves in Pokémon Moon, it will become the Midnight Form. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, only Rockruff who has the event-exclusive ability Own Tempo will evolve into the Dusk Form during 17:00 to 17:59.

Trivia
- It was teased early on that Rockruff's evolution was to be unique and had a "certain secret". It was later revealed by leaks to be based on a werewolf, which was confirmed in the CoroCoro magazine.
- Rockruff's split evolution follows two common trends of small quadrupedal canine Pokémon: some, such as Growlithe and Vulpix evolve in more "adult" but still animal-like quadrupedal forms, while others like Fennekin and Zorua become bipedal and anthropomorphic upon evolving. The Midday and Dusk forms follows the former, while the Midnight form follows the latter.
- Lycanroc and its pre-evolution, Rockruff, are the only rock-type Pokémon that can't learn Sandstorm.
- Lycanroc 's Dusk form bears resemblance to "Tiger (Tiger of the Wind)" from "Monster Ranchers".
Origin
Midday and Dusk form Lycanroc is based on a grey wolf, with elements of a fox or a dingo while Midnight form Lycanroc is based on a werewolf, with its red eyes, bared teeth and folded ears resembling a stereotypical "mad dog".
Alternatively, Midday and Dusk Lycanroc may be based on the "voluntary" werewolf (a version that changes from man to wolf at will and keeps control of its mind) while Midnight Lycanroc may be based on the "involuntary" werewolf (a version that turns into a monstrous man-wolf hybrid on a full moon and becomes a vicious rampaging beast).
Lycanroc may also be based on the extinct Japanese wolf or the ezo wolf. The Midday form's persistent nature when it hunts and the small rocks on Midnight form's waist are similar to the extinct thylacine/Tasmanian tiger. Tasmanian tiger is a wolflike marsupial which has stripes on its lean back and is known for its persistent, shy, yet brutal nature.
Etymology
Lycanroc is a combination of the words "Lycan" (from the Greek Lykos, meaning wolf) and Rock due to its typing. Lycan may also refer to the modern use of the word "Lycanthropy" (the technical term for the affliction of being a werewolf) due to how Rockruff evolves. The majestic, noble appearance of the Midday and Dusk form in stark contrast to the Midnight form's sinister look may be a reference to wolves equally both being portrayed as benevolent as well as malevolent in culture.
