'''Tauros''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケンタロス''' ''Kentauros'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].
 
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, but it is considered to be a counterpart of {{p|Miltank}}.


=Biology=
In [[Paldea]], Tauros has [[#Form data|three]] different [[regional form]]s: '''Combat Breed''', which is pure {{type|Fighting}}, '''Blaze Breed''', which is dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Fire}}, and '''Aqua Breed''', which is dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Water}}.
==Physiology==
Tauros is a three tailed brown bull with a dark brown mane and silvery horns.
===Gender differences===
Tauros is the male of the species. For the female equivalent, see {{p|Miltank}}.
===Special abilities===


==Behavior==
==Biology==
==Habitat==
[[File:Tauros Charge VII OD.png|200px|thumb|left|Poké Ride Tauros]]
==Diet==
Tauros is a quadrupedal, {{wp|bovine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is covered in light brown fur with a thick, darker brown mane around the neck. It has a rounded muzzle with a dark brown nose, small, triangular eyes, three gray bumps running vertically down its forehead, and a pair of curved, gray horns growing from atop its head. Each of its three black tails has a tuft of fur on the end, and there is a single gray hoof on each foot. Tauros is a male-only species.
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''


=In the anime=
Tauros is a violent, rowdy Pokémon that whips itself into a frenzy using its three tails. It serves as a warning to others that Tauros is about to charge with astonishing speed. Once it starts charging, it is unable to stop or change course until it hits something. Tauros are capable of smashing through large boulders when charging. It lives and travels in herds on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|plains and grasslands}}. It will lock horns with others of its kind, and the herd's protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns.


Tauros first appeared in [[EP033]], but only briefly at the start of the episode.
While still ferocious, Tauros are calmer in [[Alola]] than elsewhere, likely due to the region's climate. It is believed that the practice of using Tauros as [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]], which is done to this day, originated in Alola. In contrast, Tauros in [[Galar]] are more volatile and don't like to be ridden.


[[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] captured 30 of this Wild Bull Pokémon in [[EP035]].  The first time Ash ever used any of his [[Ash's Tauros|Tauros]] in a battle was against [[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]] of the Orange Islands in [[EP111]].
Tauros is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Raging Bull}}.


Ethan used Tauros to pull his stagecoach in [[EP101]].
===Forms===
In [[Paldea]], Tauros has three separate [[regional form]]s: Combat Breed, Blaze Breed, and Aqua Breed.


Ash used one of his Tauros again for a battle against [[Anabel|Salon Maiden Anabel]] in [[AG169]] and [[AG170]].
All three forms of Paldean Tauros are covered in dark gray fur, and have a thick black mane, gray horns, black hooves, and dark gray tails with black tips. Each form also has three gray bumps running vertically on its forehead, increasing in size from top to bottom. The physical differences between the three forms are visible on the shapes of their horns, manes, and tails. The three forms of Paldean Tauros are known as "'''The Wild Bulls of Paldea'''".


=In the TFG=
;Combat Breed
One Tauros figure has been released.
The Combat Breed of Paldean Tauros has short, rounded, almost straight horns, and its mane and tails are shaped similarly to Kantonian Tauros. Combat Breed Paldean Tauros is known for its thick, powerful muscles and aggressive nature. Thanks to its muscular body, it is skilled at close-quarters combat, able to use its horns to strike at an opponent's weak spots.


* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Tauros|36}}
;Blaze Breed
The Blaze Breed of Paldean Tauros has sharp horns, pointing forward and bent at right angles. Its mane is spiky with streaks of red, and its tails are intertwined. Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros earns its name from the hot air it breathes from its nostrils. When channeling its fire energy, the bumps and horns on Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros's head will glow red. The horns can reach a temperature of over 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit (1,000 degrees Celsius), causing anyone gored by them to suffer both wounds and burns.


=Pokédex entries=
;Aqua Breed
; [[Pokémon Red and Blue]] / [[Pokémon LeafGreen]]
The Aqua Breed of Paldean Tauros has horns that usually point upward but can rotate backward — each horn has two round, bulbous forms and a hole on its tip. Its mane flows downward and is shaped like a beard, with five teardrop-shaped blue accents on it. Its tails are usually straight, but can bend to form a propeller shape, which aids it in swimming. Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros is recognized for its high body fat, which allows it to float easily in the water. It swims by unleashing high-pressure jets of water from its horns, as well as using its tails to propel itself. It can use the same water jets to pierce right through any enemy it hits. The bumps and horns on Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros's head will glow light blue when it attacks.
: When it targets an enemy, it charges furiously while whipping its body with its long tails.
; [[Pokémon Yellow]]
: A rowdy Pokémon with a lot of stamina. Once running, it won't stop until it hits something.
; [[Pokémon Gold]]
: They fight each other by locking horns. The herd's protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns.
; [[Pokémon Silver]]
: After heightening its will to fight by whipping itself with its three tails, it charges at full speed.
; [[Pokémon Crystal]]
: These violent Pokémon fight with other members of their herd in order to prove their strength.
; [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire]]
: This Pokémon is not satisfied unless it is rampaging at all times. If there is no opponent for Tauros to battle, it will charge at thick trees and knock them down to calm itself.
; [[Pokémon Emerald]]
: It is not satisfied unless it is rampaging at all times. If there is no opponent for Tauros to battle, it will charge at thick trees and knock them down to calm itself.
; [[Pokémon FireRed]]
: When it is about to {{m|tackle}}, it whips its body repeatedly with its three long tails.

===Form data===
{| border="1" style="border: 1px solid #999; border-collapse: collapse; background: white; margin: auto;" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2"
{{rf|Paldean}} Tauros has three non-interchangeable forms: Combat Breed, Blaze Breed, and Aqua Breed. Visually, each breed has different horns, manes, and tails. The breeds have different [[type]]s, with Combat Breed being {{type|Fighting}}, Blaze Breed being dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Fire}}, and Aqua Breed being dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Water}}. They also learn different [[move]]s, and the type of Tauros's [[signature move]] {{m|Raging Bull}} changes based on the user's form, being Fighting-type for Combat Breed, Fire-type for Blaze Breed, and Water-type for Aqua Breed.
|- style="background: #{{normal color}};"  
 
! Number
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Blaze Breed is found exclusively in Pokémon Scarlet, while the Aqua Breed is found exclusively in Pokémon Violet. The Combat Breed is the most common of the three and is found in both versions. Regular Tauros bred in Paldea without an Everstone will always produce Combat Breed Paldean Tauros.

* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Tauros|36}}
 
==Trivia==
* Tauros can be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Miltank}}. Both are bovine-like Pokémon with the same base stat total. While Tauros is a male-only species, Miltank is a female-only species.
** Despite not being associated with a certain group, both Tauros and Miltank are listed on the same [[Pokédex]] page in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]. The same trait is true with {{p|Oranguru}} and {{p|Passimian}}.
* According to {{g|Sun and Moon}}, Tauros was designed by [[Shigeki Morimoto]].
** Additionally, in Pokémon Sun and Moon, if the {{player}} brings a Tauros with a Game Boy [[origin mark]] to [[Game Freak]] Morimoto at [[Heahea City]], he will remark on how Tauros used to be one of the most powerful Pokémon in the [[Generation I]] [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}}, in part because it could learn {{m|Blizzard}}.
** All three forms of Paldean Tauros were designed by [[James Turner]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1639923490957545472 Tweet by James Turner (@JamesTurner_42).] Posted on March 26, 2023.</ref>
* Tauros is the only Pokémon to have more than one [[regional form]] within the same region; in the [[Paldea]] region, it has three different regional forms.
* Tauros forms a notable bug in [[Pokémon Play It!]], a game largely based on the Trading Card Game. Once the "Tauros" card appears, either in the player's own deck or that of the digital opponent, the game will shut down or freeze the player's computer.
* In {{game|Crystal}}, a [[List of glitches in Generation II#Heavy Ball junk data glitch|bug]] causes the capture formula for the [[Heavy Ball]] to incorrectly retrieve this Pokémon's weight, giving it a +40 catch rate modifier. This also affects {{p|Kadabra}} and {{p|Sunflora}}.
* Blaze Breed {{rf|Paldean}} Tauros is the only dual-type {{t|Fighting}}/{{t|Fire}} Pokémon to not be an evolutionary relative of a [[first partner Pokémon]].
* There is an entry for Kantonian Tauros in the [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldean Pokédex]], even though it is not available in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} unless transferred from {{g|HOME}}. The same entry was later made available through the [[List of Pokémon by Blueberry Pokédex number|Blueberry Pokédex]].
** The entry for Kantonian Tauros in Violet was edited slightly as of version 1.3.0. The original text is as follows: "They fight each other by locking horns. The herd's protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns." It is identical to Kantonian Tauros's Pokédex entries in {{game|Gold}}, {{pkmn|Stadium 2}}, and {{game|HeartGold}}.
 
===Origin===
Tauros appears to be based on a {{wp|Cattle|bull}} or a {{wp|bison}} and may also be based on the constellation {{wp|Taurus (constellation)|Taurus}}. Its tails may be based on a {{wp|whip}}, more specifically the {{wp|cat o' nine tails}}.


==Special moves==
Paldean Tauros's appearance, typing, and the fact that it is found in a region inspired by the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}} suggest inspiration from the {{wp|Spanish fighting bull}}. The black color could also be inspired by the {{wp|Osborne bull}}, which has become a cultural emblem of Spain. The two variations of Paldean Tauros being Fire and Water types specifically could be a reference to two of the most famous and controversial bullfighting practices in Spain: the {{wp|Toro embolado}}, mainly from the {{wp|Valencian Community}}, where the bull horns are set on fire; and the {{wp|es:Bous a la Mar|Bous a la Mar}}, from the Valencian region of {{wp|Dénia}}, where the bulls run down the Marqués de Campo street and end up swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. The Aqua Breed form may also be loosely based on a {{wp|water buffalo}}, and the form of its tails could take inspiration from ship {{wp|propeller}}s or {{wp|water wheel}}s; as well as the {{wp|triskelion}}, a popular motif used by ancient European cultures, especially the {{wp|Celts}}.
In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Tauros knows {{m|Shadow Hold}}, {{m|Shadow Rush}}, {{m|Shadow Shed}} and {{m|Shadow Sky}} as a [[Shadow Pokémon]], and learns {{m|Refresh}} after being [[Purification|purified]].


=Evolution=
====Name origin====
{| border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="margin: auto;"
Tauros may be derived from its Japanese name, Kentauros. It may also be derived from ταῦρος ''tauros'' (Greek for bull).
|-
| rowspan="5" |
{{EvoChart Box|
text=Basic |
image=128.png |
name=Tauros }}
|}


=Trivia=
Kentauros may be derived from Κένταυρος ''Kéntauros'' (Greek for {{wp|centaur}}).
Its female counterpart is [[Miltank]].
==Origin==
It may just be simply based on a bull.
===Name origin===
Tauros's name is an abbreviation of its Japanese name, ''Kentauros'', which is comes from [[wp:Greek language|Greek]] Κένταυρος, [[wp:Centaur|Centaur]]. It could also be a misspelling of ''[[wp:Centaurus|Centaurus]]''.


It is worth noting that ''taurus'', Latin for [[wp:bull|bull]], is also the name of another constellation, [[wp:Taurus (constellation)|Taurus]].

Tauros (Japanese: ケンタロス Kentauros) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but it is considered to be a counterpart of Miltank.

In Paldea, Tauros has three different regional forms: Combat Breed, which is pure Fighting-type, Blaze Breed, which is dual-type Fighting/Fire, and Aqua Breed, which is dual-type Fighting/Water.

Biology

Poké Ride Tauros

Tauros is a quadrupedal, bovine Pokémon. It is covered in light brown fur with a thick, darker brown mane around the neck. It has a rounded muzzle with a dark brown nose, small, triangular eyes, three gray bumps running vertically down its forehead, and a pair of curved, gray horns growing from atop its head. Each of its three black tails has a tuft of fur on the end, and there is a single gray hoof on each foot. Tauros is a male-only species.

Tauros is a violent, rowdy Pokémon that whips itself into a frenzy using its three tails. It serves as a warning to others that Tauros is about to charge with astonishing speed. Once it starts charging, it is unable to stop or change course until it hits something. Tauros are capable of smashing through large boulders when charging. It lives and travels in herds on plains and grasslands. It will lock horns with others of its kind, and the herd's protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns.

While still ferocious, Tauros are calmer in Alola than elsewhere, likely due to the region's climate. It is believed that the practice of using Tauros as Ride Pokémon, which is done to this day, originated in Alola. In contrast, Tauros in Galar are more volatile and don't like to be ridden.

Tauros is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Raging Bull.

Forms

In Paldea, Tauros has three separate regional forms: Combat Breed, Blaze Breed, and Aqua Breed.

All three forms of Paldean Tauros are covered in dark gray fur, and have a thick black mane, gray horns, black hooves, and dark gray tails with black tips. Each form also has three gray bumps running vertically on its forehead, increasing in size from top to bottom. The physical differences between the three forms are visible on the shapes of their horns, manes, and tails. The three forms of Paldean Tauros are known as "The Wild Bulls of Paldea".

Combat Breed

The Combat Breed of Paldean Tauros has short, rounded, almost straight horns, and its mane and tails are shaped similarly to Kantonian Tauros. Combat Breed Paldean Tauros is known for its thick, powerful muscles and aggressive nature. Thanks to its muscular body, it is skilled at close-quarters combat, able to use its horns to strike at an opponent's weak spots.

Blaze Breed

The Blaze Breed of Paldean Tauros has sharp horns, pointing forward and bent at right angles. Its mane is spiky with streaks of red, and its tails are intertwined. Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros earns its name from the hot air it breathes from its nostrils. When channeling its fire energy, the bumps and horns on Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros's head will glow red. The horns can reach a temperature of over 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit (1,000 degrees Celsius), causing anyone gored by them to suffer both wounds and burns.

Aqua Breed

The Aqua Breed of Paldean Tauros has horns that usually point upward but can rotate backward — each horn has two round, bulbous forms and a hole on its tip. Its mane flows downward and is shaped like a beard, with five teardrop-shaped blue accents on it. Its tails are usually straight, but can bend to form a propeller shape, which aids it in swimming. Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros is recognized for its high body fat, which allows it to float easily in the water. It swims by unleashing high-pressure jets of water from its horns, as well as using its tails to propel itself. It can use the same water jets to pierce right through any enemy it hits. The bumps and horns on Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros's head will glow light blue when it attacks.

Form data

Paldean Tauros has three non-interchangeable forms: Combat Breed, Blaze Breed, and Aqua Breed. Visually, each breed has different horns, manes, and tails. The breeds have different types, with Combat Breed being Fighting-type, Blaze Breed being dual-type Fighting/Fire, and Aqua Breed being dual-type Fighting/Water. They also learn different moves, and the type of Tauros's signature move Raging Bull changes based on the user's form, being Fighting-type for Combat Breed, Fire-type for Blaze Breed, and Water-type for Aqua Breed.

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the Blaze Breed is found exclusively in Pokémon Scarlet, while the Aqua Breed is found exclusively in Pokémon Violet. The Combat Breed is the most common of the three and is found in both versions. Regular Tauros bred in Paldea without an Everstone will always produce Combat Breed Paldean Tauros.

Trivia

  • Tauros can be seen as a counterpart to Miltank. Both are bovine-like Pokémon with the same base stat total. While Tauros is a male-only species, Miltank is a female-only species.
  • According to Pokémon Sun and Moon, Tauros was designed by Shigeki Morimoto.
  • Tauros is the only Pokémon to have more than one regional form within the same region; in the Paldea region, it has three different regional forms.
  • Tauros forms a notable bug in Pokémon Play It!, a game largely based on the Trading Card Game. Once the "Tauros" card appears, either in the player's own deck or that of the digital opponent, the game will shut down or freeze the player's computer.
  • In Pokémon Crystal, a bug causes the capture formula for the Heavy Ball to incorrectly retrieve this Pokémon's weight, giving it a +40 catch rate modifier. This also affects Kadabra and Sunflora.
  • Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros is the only dual-type Fighting/Fire Pokémon to not be an evolutionary relative of a first partner Pokémon.
  • There is an entry for Kantonian Tauros in the Paldean Pokédex, even though it is not available in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet unless transferred from Pokémon HOME. The same entry was later made available through the Blueberry Pokédex.
    • The entry for Kantonian Tauros in Violet was edited slightly as of version 1.3.0. The original text is as follows: "They fight each other by locking horns. The herd's protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns." It is identical to Kantonian Tauros's Pokédex entries in Pokémon Gold, Stadium 2, and Pokémon HeartGold.

Origin

Tauros appears to be based on a bull or a bison and may also be based on the constellation Taurus. Its tails may be based on a whip, more specifically the cat o' nine tails.

Paldean Tauros's appearance, typing, and the fact that it is found in a region inspired by the Iberian Peninsula suggest inspiration from the Spanish fighting bull. The black color could also be inspired by the Osborne bull, which has become a cultural emblem of Spain. The two variations of Paldean Tauros being Fire and Water types specifically could be a reference to two of the most famous and controversial bullfighting practices in Spain: the Toro embolado, mainly from the Valencian Community, where the bull horns are set on fire; and the Bous a la Mar, from the Valencian region of Dénia, where the bulls run down the Marqués de Campo street and end up swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. The Aqua Breed form may also be loosely based on a water buffalo, and the form of its tails could take inspiration from ship propellers or water wheels; as well as the triskelion, a popular motif used by ancient European cultures, especially the Celts.

Name origin

Tauros may be derived from its Japanese name, Kentauros. It may also be derived from ταῦρος tauros (Greek for bull).

Kentauros may be derived from Κένταυρος Kéntauros (Greek for centaur).
