LicoPome

LicoPome is the het ship between Licorice Cookie and Pomegranate Cookie from the Cookie Run fandom.

Canon
Licorice Cookie and Pomegranate Cookie are seen as enemies during each Cookie Run game. In OvenBreak, Pomegranate seems to not be friendly with any men, only seen getting along with other female characters and occasionally allying with the other Cookies of Darkness. Licorice Cookie is more on the unprepared side, he likes to act as if he knows everything, but he tends to fail. Pomegranate greatly dislikes his attitude, constantly belittling him and asking why he is such a failure. Licorice Cookie doesn't always take lightly to her remarks either.

OvenBreak
Licorice Cookie and Pomegranate Cookie don't get along. He always fail at his missions, and Pomegranate takes it out on him. In one of Licorice Cookie's quotes, Licorice Cookie mentions Pomegranate Cookie, telling her "just you wait!", wanting to one day prove that he is worthy of being perceived as anything other than a failure in the eyes of Pomegranate Cookie, or perhaps get revenge on her for her actions towards him. However she believes he is a fool, and does not take him seriously. She pushes Licorice Cookie aside and takes him lightly, and does not believe he is worthy of being a Cookie of Darkness and she wants to be the only one to serve Dark Enchantress Cookie. When Licorice Cookie is gifted Crimson Sugar Crystal, he is reminded of Pomegranate Cookie and becomes extremely agitated, reassuring himself that he is the right hand man of Dark Enchantress Cookie and not her, no matter how much more qualified and successful she may be.

Kingdom
Pomegranate and Licorice Cookie interact more in Kingdom, and Licorice Cookie complains about Pomegranate Cookie a lot in his quotes. They are in many stories together, such as Cookie Odyssey, Cookies of Darkness, and World Exploration, and they also interact in the BTS crossover story. In their interactions Pomegranate Cookie usually expresses her disappointment with Licorice Cookie, like in the BTS crossover story, where she expresses disgust towards Licorice Cookie's singing skills. Overall, the two share a lot of interactions together, and all are negative.

Fanon
LicoPome is an unpopular ship for both Pomegranate and Licorice Cookie, and is wildly disliked by the Cookie Run fandom to the point where artists on social media have been harassed for drawing or promoting it. Much of the hatred towards the ship stems from the in-game implications that Pomegranate Cookie is a lesbian, her canon attraction to female characters and disgust towards men. However a large about of people who are opposed to the ship believe Licorice deserves better than Pomegranate, calling her actions towards him problematic, and mental abuse. Controversially, some people ship it for those reasons, as they like the idea of a toxic relationship and ship it because the idea of villains being in a relationship that serves no purpose other than to make both parties worse is appealing to them.

For Pomegranate Cookie, ships like StarPome or DEPom are more popular, the later being semi-canon on Pomegranates side. For Licorice Cookie, ships like Licofait, RedLico, and DarkLico are more popular.
