Tauros (Japanese: ケンタロス Kentauros) is a Normal-type Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Tauros is a quadruped, 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, and three gray bumps running vertically down its forehead. A pair of curved, gray horns grows 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 with no true female counterpart.
Tauros is a violent, rowdy Pokémon that whips itself into a frenzy using its three tails. Once it starts charging, it is unable to stop or change course until it hits something. 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.

Trivia
- 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 computer.
Origin
It is based on a bull or a bison and may also be based on the constellation Taurus. Its tail is based on a whip, more specifically the cat o' nine tails.
Name origin
Tauros is an abbreviation of its Japanese name, Kentauros. It is worth noting that Taurus, Latin for bull (which comes from the Greek tauros), is the name of a constellation representing a bull. Tauros could also be a corruption of Toro (Spanish for bull).
Kentauros is derived from the Japanese ケンタウロス centaur, which itself derives from the Greek Κένταυρος. It could also be a corruption of Centaurus, a large south-sky constellation representing a centaur.
