In ''[[PS016|Tauros the Tyrant]]'' Tauros was used as a mount by members of {{TRT}}, apparently captured in the {{safari|Kanto}}.

====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Tauros is an abbreviation of its Japanese name, Kentauros. It is worth noting that ''Taurus'', {{wp|Latin}} for ''bull'' (which comes from the {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} "tauros"), is also the name of a {{wp|Taurus (constellation)|constellation}}. Tauros could also be a corruption of ''Toro'' ({{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} for ''bull'').

Tauros could also be a corruption of ''Toro'' ({{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} for ''bull'').


Kentauros is derived from Japanese ケンタウロス ''{{wp|centaur}}'', which itself derives from Greek Κένταυρος. It could also be a corruption of ''{{wp|Centaurus}}'', a large south-sky constellation representing a centaur.
