Don't confuse the indefinite adjective ningún with the indefinite pronoun ninguno. Ninguno can never be used with a masculine singular noun!
No llevaba ningún chicle en el bolsillo. No llevaba ninguno.I didn't have any chewing gum in my pocket. I didn't have any.
Incorrect: No llevaba ninguno chicle...
