'''Ash's 30 Tauros''' (Japanese: '''サトシの30匹のケンタロス''' ''Satoshi's 30 Kentauros'') were caught during [[Ash Ketchum]]'s travels in the [[Kanto]] region.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
===Kanto===<br />
[[File:Tauros Herd.png|thumb|200px|left|Ash's Tauros stampeding]]<br />
Ash spent some time in the {{safari|Kanto}} in the episode [[EP035]]. He was attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} as many {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} as possible, though all he ended up with were thirty Tauros as they always ran in front of his Safari Balls when he tried to make a catch. At the end of Ash's adventures in the Safari Zone, all thirty Tauros were sent to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory. This episode has never been aired outside of Japan due to the firearms being a plot point. The dub merely mentions in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' that Ash caught the Tauros in the Safari Zone without the captures ever being depicted.<br />
<br />
The Tauros' main characteristic is stampeding. This means that the lab is a good place for them, as there is plenty of space to run around. They have proved useful at the laboratory, stampeding to wake up [[Ash's Snorlax]] in times of crisis. However, the stampeding has caused mishaps. The first time Ash returned to [[Pallet Town]] in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', they stampeded through a fence and sent Team Rocket blasting off. <br />
<br />
Later, they stampeded through the lab, leaving a mess and a large hole in the wall.<br />
<br />
===Orange Islands===<br />
Ash began using Tauros when he needed a replacement for Snorlax for his battle for the Winner's Cup of the [[Orange League]] in ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]'' and ''[[EP112|Enter The Dragonite]]''. He sent the now-sleeping {{AP|Snorlax}} to Oak's for one of his Tauros to see if the "beginner's luck" strategy he had used in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] with {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Muk}} would work again. Tauros seemed shocked but very pleased when Ash chose him.<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros Oak.png|thumb|right|Ash's Tauros, overjoyed at being picked for the Orange Island Championship]]<br />
After an initial failure when hit with {{p|Gengar}}'s {{m|Confuse Ray}}, Tauros went up against [[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]]'s {{p|Venusaur}}. His {{m|Fissure}} and {{m|Take Down}} attacks caused him to become lodged in the now sandy field, and he was helpless when Venusaur, who he had managed to hurl into the air, hit him with {{m|SolarBeam}}. However, this freed him from the sand, and he defeated Venusaur with a very powerful Take Down. He later fought [[Drake's Dragonite]], managing to stand firm and catch Dragonite's {{m|Body Slam}} on his horns; Ash remembered the sand's cushioning effect and used it to his advantage this time. Tauros then slammed Dragonite into the ground, but Dragonite recovered and took down Tauros with a {{M|Thunder}}. His efforts allowed Pikachu to land the final blow and win Ash the tournament.<br />
<br />
Ash's Tauros was returned to its herd in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. A Tauros appeared in ''[[EP145|A Farfetch'd Tale]]'', where it crowded into Ash's screen with {{AP|Kingler}}, {{AP|Snorlax}} and {{AP|Muk}} to wish him luck for his next [[Gym]] battle.<br />
<br />
===Johto===<br />
[[File:Ash and Tauros.png|thumb|left|220px|Ash and Tauros, the Tauros Champions]]<br />
The Tauros was used again in early [[Johto]] during the Pokémon Swap Meet, in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. One of the events was a Tauros-battling competition, which Ash entered after exchanging {{AP|Heracross}} for Tauros. Ash then sprinted into the stadium to challenge [[Fernando]], the undefeated champion with ten straight wins. Ash's Tauros locks horns with Fernando's, and manages to overpower his with a Take Down that threw Fernando's Tauros into the arena wall and knock it out, winning Ash the tournament. Ash then received multiple offers to trade Tauros for an {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Nidoqueen}} and a {{p|Rhyhorn}}, as well as Benny's {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}. However, he explained that he wasn't there to trade; and sent Tauros back to Professor Oak in the next episode, ''[[EP147|The Fire-ing Squad!]]''.<br />
<br />
Ash later used a Tauros in the [[Silver Conference]], in ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]''. He fought {{Gary}}'s {{p|Nidoqueen}}. managing to push through the rocks thrown by {{m|Rock Smash}} and charge with a Horn Attack. Nidoqueen blocked Tauros by catching his horns and then launched a Hyper Beam, easily knocking Tauros out of the match.<br />
<br />
In the special episodes, they made a cameo appearance telling the other Pokémon about [[Cassidy]] and [[Butch]].<br />
<br />
===Kanto Battle Frontier===<br />
[[File:Ash Training Tauros Corphish Pikachu.png|thumb|250px|Ash and Tauros training for the rematch]]<br />
On Ash's return from [[Hoenn]] in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', the Tauros were seen running towards him with his other Pokémon. However, they were so pleased to see him that they got carried away and stampeded off with Ash on their backs, and Ash had to be retrieved by [[Ash's Bayleef|his Bayleef]] before he could be reunited with the other Pokémon. <br />
[[File:Ash Tauros stampede.png|thumb|220px|left|Ash on his stampeding Tauros]]<br />
He used Tauros again in the battle against [[Salon Maiden Anabel]] in ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game!]]'', first against her {{p|Alakazam}}. It went on an offensive charge, but was easily defeated by a combination of {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Psybeam}}. <br />
<br />
After training the next day (and being so spooked by a {{p|Beedrill}}'s {{m|Twineedle}} that it managed to hurl Ash, Anabel, Pikachu and {{AP|Corphish}} flying into a lake), it was used in the rematch in ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm]]''. This time, it was used against {{p|Metagross}}, using Horn Attack to throw Metagross into the air. Metagross' {{m|Hyper Beam}} was countered by {{m|Double Team}}, but the beam slashed through all of the duplicates and hit Tauros. He quickly recovered and struck the recharging Metagross hard. Its final Take Down was countered by {{M|Meteor Mash}}, taking out both Pokémon.<br />

==Personality and characteristics==<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros Dragonite.png|thumb|right|220px|Ash's Tauros demonstrating its strength by hefting the 460lb (210kg) Dragonite on its horns]]<br />
Due to the large number of Tauros, it is impossible to determine any one personality. However, the Tauros seem to share a very enthusiastic personality, and a love of exercise. In terms of battling, despite the very small moveset available during most of their screentime, they are all extremely strong, capable of throwing a Metagross, Dragonite, Tauros and Venusaur into the air from a standing position, using only his neck muscles.<br />

==In the manga==<br />
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros EToP.png|150px|thumb|Ash's Tauros in the Electric Tale of Pikachu]]<br />
[[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]]'s Tauros was briefly seen in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga during Ash's battle with Drake in chapter ''[[ET18|Pikachu's Plan]]''. It is unknown whether Ash has multiple Tauros in the manga like he has in the anime.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* {{an|Brock}} caught a Tauros at the same time that Ash caught his first Tauros. Because of this, some believe that Brock should own a Tauros, and the writers forgot about it in subsequent episodes. However, he caught it using one of Ash's {{ball|Safari}}s, and therefore it is one of the thirty belonging to Ash.<br />
* Despite them all being captured in green Safari Balls, they all have regular [[Poké Ball]]s when Ash calls them into {{pkmn|battle}}.<br />
* It has never been revealed whether Ash uses the same Tauros whenever one of them is transferred to him or if Professor Oak simply sends him a random one each time. However, it is likely that the one Ash uses is the leader of the herd.<br />
* Ash's Tauros are the only Pokémon belonging to a main character to be caught in a [[banned episodes|banned episode]].<br />
* Ash was offered a {{p|Rhyhorn}} in exchange for his Tauros after winning the Tauros battling competition. Ash had tried to capture a Rhyhorn in the Safari Zone, but a Tauros ran past and was captured instead. Despite this, Ash chooses to keep his Tauros.<br />
* Tauros is Ash's only Pokémon to have used a [[one-hit knockout move]].<br />
* The Tauros are the only Pokémon Ash has caught multiple of.<br />

Hi, can you read the talk page? There wasn't any significant opposition and the discussion was ignored after another user came in to support the information that was added.

I thought the 2nd Movie was Canon (in the same way Mewtwo Strikes Back is).

:I do have the games, but it would be impractical and take hours to document every Pokemon that appears at every battlefield for all three levels of power, especially since in a lot of storylines you can't even access every battlefield, and what appears there each round is random. A simple list of Pokemon isn't plagiarism, if I was copying stuff word for word, yes, but I'm not, it's a list of straight facts that as you said, anyone could get, to call it plagiarism is ridiculous. Advance question then since I asked about on another Admin's talk, would it be "plagiarism" to upload rips of the sprites in the game that spritersresource is hosting?

::::Well that pic could be a lot of moves, Conquest only uses a dozen or so image hitboxes. Among others I'm probably forgetting, that's Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Psybeam, and Dragon Pulse. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 04:22, 31 January 2013 (UTC)<br />
::::Also to clarify, the difference between the main game and conquest effects of moves is that Conquest uses a grid-based movement system, every attack hits over particular tiles. So that pic hits three squares forward, the blue square is the attacking Pokemon, the orange squares are what squares get hit. Water Gun for example hit two squares forward, Petal Dance and Outrage hit the four squares adjacent the attacker, etc. The in-game graphics show a similar graphic to that including colors, just their grid is on an angle.

::::::Sounds good, hadn't thought of that. Move info is fairly simple thankfully, a one-to-five star power rating and additional effect, all moves are the same types as in the main series.<br />

== Re:Conquest ==<br />
<br />
The tiles could be made larger, and there should be a field to list who learns the attack (it can be small though, I doubt that any move is learned by more than five Pokemon at best). How come the Description and Power fields are repeated? All in all though, looks good. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:10, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />

Oh, and to simplify the Power field, moves in Conquest are ranked in power in stars, 1-5. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:11, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
:Yeah, been trying to make the tiles larger, I'll figure out how to do that. Okay, Pokémon that can learn the move will b added, description and power are only like that for the time being. As for the stars, I'm actually for images of the stars so I can use that on the template.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 03:34, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
::Sorry, don't have the sprites for the stars.<br />
<br />
::Something else that can simplify the template, the middle tile on the second row, as shown on my earlier pic, can always be blue. Then the other tiles just need the option to be orange, blue, red, or blank - the game uses orange to denote what tiles are hit, blue to denote the attacker moving as they attack, and red to denote the target will get pushed back to that tile(s) by the attack. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:43, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Okay, cool. Also, how big should the grid be, I currently have it at 5x3.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 03:50, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
:::Oh, I didn't mean the dimensions, 5x3 is perfect. I meant the size of each square, though it occurs to me I should have asked how big they will be because that obviously isn't the intended size ;p [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:55, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
::::Yeah, I meant dimensions. The grid is now bigger. And Pokemon has been added.

<br />
:::::Cool, it may take me some time (have college projects to do over the next week), but once it's ready I'll get to work. Also, the blue tile default should be one more to the left. <br />
:::::Thanks for your help with this. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 04:03, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Looks good, but how does the "tile" thing work? [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 05:05, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
:Type in a number after ''tile=''. So ''tile=one'' will highlight one tile, ''tile=two'' will highlight two so on so forth.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 05:16, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
::Yeah, that is really not gonna work, not all moves hit straight forward. Flame Burst hits in an X pattern centered two squares forwards, Fire Spin hits in a box pattern in front of the user, Thunderbolt hits three tiles horizontally two squares in front of the user. Like, I could supply you with the different combinations so we could put like "pattern=1" and it shows the one pattern, but otherwise each tile needs to individually be toggable to turn orange. The two in front of the user, like in your test, need the option to turn blue, and the column two in front of the user (fourth columm from the left) needs to be able to turn red. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 05:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
:::I...see...It would be great if you could give me all the combinations, and I'll see what I can do.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 05:34, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
::::Well, turns out my estimate of a dozen attack combinations or so was quite generous, it's twice that. A good half dozen, at least, are moves like Volt Switch or signature moves like Aura Sphere and thus they get custom hit boxes, yay. Here's all of them [http://s443.beta.photobucket.com/user/DrakeClawfang/library/Pokemon%20Conquest 27 in total]. The Dark Blue are for moves where the user moves when attacking, the game indicates the user's current tile with an arrow but I think using light blue for the attacker's initial position will work better for illustrative purposes. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 05:58, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />
:::::Woah, cool. I'll implement those tomorrow, only because I don't want to edit my userspace too much.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 06:05, 1 February 2013 (UTC)<br />

'''Ash's 30 Tauros''' (Japanese: '''サトシの30匹のケンタロス''' ''Satoshi's 30 Kentauros'') were caught during [[Ash Ketchum]]'s travels in the [[Kanto]] region.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
===Kanto===<br />
[[File:Tauros Herd.png|thumb|200px|left|Ash's Tauros stampeding]]<br />
Ash spent some time in the {{safari|Kanto}} in the episode [[EP035]]. He was attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} as many {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} as possible, though all he ended up with were thirty Tauros as they always ran in front of his Safari Balls when he tried to make a catch. At the end of Ash's adventures in the Safari Zone, all thirty Tauros were sent to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory. This episode has never been aired outside of Japan due to the firearms being a plot point. The dub merely mentions in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' that Ash caught the Tauros in the Safari Zone without the captures ever being depicted.<br />
<br />
The Tauros' main characteristic is stampeding. This means that the lab is a good place for them, as there is plenty of space to run around. They have proved useful at the laboratory, stampeding to wake up [[Ash's Snorlax]] in times of crisis. However, the stampeding has caused mishaps. The first time Ash returned to [[Pallet Town]] in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', they stampeded through a fence and sent Team Rocket blasting off. <br />
<br />
Later, they stampeded through the lab, leaving a mess and a large hole in the wall.<br />
<br />
===Orange Islands===<br />
Ash began using Tauros when he needed a replacement for Snorlax for his battle for the Winner's Cup of the [[Orange League]] in ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]'' and ''[[EP112|Enter The Dragonite]]''. He sent the now-sleeping {{AP|Snorlax}} to Oak's for one of his Tauros to see if the "beginner's luck" strategy he had used in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] with {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Muk}} would work again. Tauros seemed shocked but very pleased when Ash chose him.<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros Oak.png|thumb|right|Ash's Tauros, overjoyed at being picked for the Orange Island Championship]]<br />
After an initial failure when hit with {{p|Gengar}}'s {{m|Confuse Ray}}, Tauros went up against [[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]]'s {{p|Venusaur}}. His {{m|Fissure}} and {{m|Take Down}} attacks caused him to become lodged in the now sandy field, and he was helpless when Venusaur, who he had managed to hurl into the air, hit him with {{m|SolarBeam}}. However, this freed him from the sand, and he defeated Venusaur with a very powerful Take Down. He later fought [[Drake's Dragonite]], managing to stand firm and catch Dragonite's {{m|Body Slam}} on his horns; Ash remembered the sand's cushioning effect and used it to his advantage this time. Tauros then slammed Dragonite into the ground, but Dragonite recovered and took down Tauros with a {{M|Thunder}}. His efforts allowed Pikachu to land the final blow and win Ash the tournament.<br />
<br />
Ash's Tauros was returned to its herd in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. A Tauros appeared in ''[[EP145|A Farfetch'd Tale]]'', where it crowded into Ash's screen with {{AP|Kingler}}, {{AP|Snorlax}} and {{AP|Muk}} to wish him luck for his next [[Gym]] battle.<br />
<br />
===Johto===<br />
[[File:Ash and Tauros.png|thumb|left|220px|Ash and Tauros, the Tauros Champions]]<br />
The Tauros was used again in early [[Johto]] during the Pokémon Swap Meet, in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. One of the events was a Tauros-battling competition, which Ash entered after exchanging {{AP|Heracross}} for Tauros. Ash then sprinted into the stadium to challenge [[Fernando]], the undefeated champion with ten straight wins. Ash's Tauros locks horns with Fernando's, and manages to overpower his with a Take Down that threw Fernando's Tauros into the arena wall and knock it out, winning Ash the tournament. Ash then received multiple offers to trade Tauros for an {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Nidoqueen}} and a {{p|Rhyhorn}}, as well as Benny's {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}. However, he explained that he wasn't there to trade; and sent Tauros back to Professor Oak in the next episode, ''[[EP147|The Fire-ing Squad!]]''.<br />
<br />
Ash later used a Tauros in the [[Silver Conference]], in ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]''. He fought {{Gary}}'s {{p|Nidoqueen}}. managing to push through the rocks thrown by {{m|Rock Smash}} and charge with a Horn Attack. Nidoqueen blocked Tauros by catching his horns and then launched a Hyper Beam, easily knocking Tauros out of the match.<br />
<br />
In the special episodes, they made a cameo appearance telling the other Pokémon about [[Cassidy]] and [[Butch]].<br />
<br />
===Kanto Battle Frontier===<br />
[[File:Ash Training Tauros Corphish Pikachu.png|thumb|250px|Ash and Tauros training for the rematch]]<br />
On Ash's return from [[Hoenn]] in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', the Tauros were seen running towards him with his other Pokémon. However, they were so pleased to see him that they got carried away and stampeded off with Ash on their backs, and Ash had to be retrieved by [[Ash's Bayleef|his Bayleef]] before he could be reunited with the other Pokémon. <br />
[[File:Ash Tauros stampede.png|thumb|220px|left|Ash on his stampeding Tauros]]<br />
He used Tauros again in the battle against [[Salon Maiden Anabel]] in ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game!]]'', first against her {{p|Alakazam}}. It went on an offensive charge, but was easily defeated by a combination of {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Psybeam}}. <br />
<br />
After training the next day (and being so spooked by a {{p|Beedrill}}'s {{m|Twineedle}} that it managed to hurl Ash, Anabel, Pikachu and {{AP|Corphish}} flying into a lake), it was used in the rematch in ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm]]''. This time, it was used against {{p|Metagross}}, using Horn Attack to throw Metagross into the air. Metagross' {{m|Hyper Beam}} was countered by {{m|Double Team}}, but the beam slashed through all of the duplicates and hit Tauros. He quickly recovered and struck the recharging Metagross hard. Its final Take Down was countered by {{M|Meteor Mash}}, taking out both Pokémon.<br />

<br />
==Personality and characteristics==<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros Dragonite.png|thumb|right|220px|Ash's Tauros demonstrating its strength by hefting the 460lb (210kg) Dragonite on its horns]]<br />
Due to the large number of Tauros, it is impossible to determine any one personality. However, the Tauros seem to share a very enthusiastic personality, and a love of exercise. In terms of battling, despite the very small moveset available during most of their screentime, they are all extremely strong, capable of throwing a Metagross, Dragonite, Tauros and Venusaur into the air from a standing position, using only his neck muscles.<br />

==In the manga==<br />
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===<br />
[[File:Ash Tauros EToP.png|150px|thumb|Ash's Tauros in the Electric Tale of Pikachu]]<br />
[[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]]'s Tauros was briefly seen in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga during Ash's battle with Drake in chapter ''[[ET18|Pikachu's Plan]]''. It is unknown whether Ash has multiple Tauros in the manga like he has in the anime.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* {{an|Brock}} caught a Tauros at the same time that Ash caught his first Tauros. Because of this, some believe that Brock should own a Tauros, and the writers forgot about it in subsequent episodes. However, he caught it using one of Ash's {{ball|Safari}}s, and therefore it is one of the thirty belonging to Ash.<br />
* Despite them all being captured in green Safari Balls, they all have regular [[Poké Ball]]s when Ash calls them into {{pkmn|battle}}.<br />
* It has never been revealed whether Ash uses the same Tauros whenever one of them is transferred to him or if Professor Oak simply sends him a random one each time. However, it is likely that the one Ash uses is the leader of the herd.<br />
* Ash's Tauros are the only Pokémon belonging to a main character to be caught in a [[banned episodes|banned episode]].<br />
* Ash was offered a {{p|Rhyhorn}} in exchange for his Tauros after winning the Tauros battling competition. Ash had tried to capture a Rhyhorn in the Safari Zone, but a Tauros ran past and was captured instead. Despite this, Ash chooses to keep his Tauros.<br />
* Tauros is Ash's only Pokémon to have used a [[one-hit knockout move]].<br />
* The Tauros are the only Pokémon Ash has caught multiple of.<br />
