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.

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. 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. While still ferocious, Tauros are calmer in [[Alola]] than elsewhere, likely due to the region's climate. The practice of riding Tauros is believed to have started in Alola. However, Tauros in Galar are more volatile and don't want to be ridden. A Tauros' herd protector takes pride in its battle-scarred horns.
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.


In [[Paldea]], Tauros has a similar appearance to its Kantonian counterpart. All three forms of Paldean Tauros are covered in black fur, a thick black mane, dark gray hooves, and black tail. It has two grey bumps, one small and one big, running vertically on its forehead. The Blaze Breed is exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet, while the Aqua Breed is exclusive to Pokémon Violet. The main difference between the forms is the horns, mane, and tail. The Combat Breed has two straight grey horns, a thick black mane, and shorter black tufts on its tail compared to Kantonian Tauros. Blaze Breed has two grey curved horns pointing forward, a thick spiky black mane with red lines, and three short tufts intertwined to the tails. The Aqua Breed has curved horns pointed up, a black mane with five blue lines shaped like a beard, and three tufts attached to three bended tails connected to one tail.
While still ferocious, Tauros are calmer in [[Alola]] than elsewhere, likely due to the region's climate. The practice of riding Tauros is believed to have started in Alola. In Alola, Tauros are used as [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]]. In contrast, Tauros in [[Galar]] are more volatile and don't like to be ridden.
 
Combat Breed Tauros is known for its thick, powerful muscles and aggressive nature. Thanks to its muscular body, Tauros is skilled at close-quarters combat. It uses its horns to strike at an opponent's weak spot.
 
Blaze Breed Tauros earns its name from the hot air it breathes from its nostrils. When channeling its energy, the horns of Tauros can reach a temperature of 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit. Anyone gored by Blaze Breed Tauros' horns will suffer both wounds and burns.
 
Aqua Breed Tauros is recognized for its high body fat, which allows it to float easily in the water. Tauros can swim by using its horns, unleashing high-pressure jet water from them. It can use the same high-pressure jet water as a form of attacking, piercing any enemy it hits.

==In the anime==
===Forms===
===Main series===
In [[Paldea]], Tauros has three separate [[regional form]]s: Combat Breed, Blaze Breed, and Aqua Breed.
[[File:Hayden Tauros.png|thumb|250px|Tauros in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ash's Tauros]]=====
{{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} a herd of 30 Tauros in [[EP035]], an episode that was [[Banned episodes|banned]] everywhere outside of Asia due to the prolific use of [[Weaponry in the Pokémon world|guns]] in it, leading to confusion for many as to how he obtained them. They made their international [[dub]] debut in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', stampeding at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]].


=====Other=====
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 ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss-Match]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Tauros battled {{Ash}}'s Pokémon. It easily defeated {{AP|Squirtle}} with {{m|Tackle}} before being knocked out by {{AP|Charizard}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}}.


In ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', {{OBP|Ethan|EP101}} used two Tauros to pull his stagecoach as he traverses [[Mandarin Island South]].
;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 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.


In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', a "Running of the Tauros" event in [[Palmpona]] brought out many Tauros, including one belonging to [[Fernando]], a Trainer who managed to get ten consecutive victories in the tournament. Ash brought his from [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] for this occasion as well, managing to defeat Fernando.
;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 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 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 Blaze Breed Tauros to suffer both wounds and burns.


In ''[[EP166|Two Hits and a Miss]]'', a Trainer's Tauros went out of control. As a result, Ash had to use his {{AP|Bulbasaur}} to stop him.
;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 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 Tauros's head will glow light blue when it attacks.


In ''[[SM011|Young Kiawe Had a Farm!]]'', a herd of Tauros were living on [[Paniola Ranch]]. They then made further appearances in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''.

===Form data===
{{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.
 
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.

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 tail may be based on a {{wp|whip}}, more specifically the {{wp|cat o' nine tails}}.

Paldean Tauros' 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 two variations being Fire and Water types specifically could possibly 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 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 at the Mediterranean Sea. The Aqua Breed form may also be loosely based on a {{wp|water buffalo}}, and its tail form could take inspiration from the {{wp | triskelion}}, a popular motif used by ancient European cultures, specially the {{wp|celts}}.

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}}.

Tauros may be a shorter form of its Japanese name, Kentauros. It is worth noting that ταῦρος ''tauros'' and ''taurus'' are, respectively, {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} and {{wp|Latin}} for bull. Tauros could also be a corruption of ''toro'' ({{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} for bull, derived from the Latin).
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 the Japanese ケンタウロス ''{{wp|centaur}}'', which itself derives from the Greek word Κένταυρος ''Kéntauros''. It could also be a corruption of ''{{wp|Centaurus}}'', a large south-sky constellation representing a centaur.
Kentauros may be derived from Κένταυρος ''Kéntauros'' (Greek for {{wp|centaur}}).
