Tauros vs Miltank

This is the first of two threads I'll make before leaving tomorrow. Tauros and Miltank are unofficial counterparts. Sort of reminicent of Nidoking and Nidoqueen or Latias and Latios.

The male is offensively oriented, just like Latios and Nidoking. The female is defensively oriented, just like Latias and Nidoqueen.

They're both based on... well, y'know, the rest should be obvious so I'm just going to skip it and go straight to the questions.

Which do you prefer?

Which is more useful?

Which would win in a battle?

I'm going to choose Tauros here though I do like them both more or less the same. Tauros came first, so I'll choose him solely because of it. Otherwise, I just wouldn't be able to choose.
 
Personally, I like Tarous best, and I belive with it's epic stats it would be the better, Tarous is a great all-round Pokemon, great attack and speed, and above average defences, it falls short a special attacks, which is kind of a pity when you consider it's special movepool, but Anger Point is it's real selling point (no pun intended) if i'm not mistaken, one critical hit does the exact same as belly drum, it maximises attack. I know this one Youtuber, PrinceBoo21, pulled off an awesome stratergy with this, having Tarous out with Vigoroth, which had a razor claw attached, and using fury swipes on Tarous, it was risky, but it works and it can devistate entire teams with the EdgeSlideQuake combo.
 
I'll say I never tried to see if Miltank could know surf. But...

Loving my surfing Tauros since ever. (Except waterfall could be a better water attack choice for it)

More seriously now...
Which do you prefer?
Tauros by design... It's a bull, and gives this idea of Taurus... (which makes me wonder why isn't there a Capricorn pokemon or something)
Which is more useful?
Despite what Tauros can learn and do though, Miltank is the more powerful.
Which would win in a battle?
Miltank. Her defenses are too high for Tauros, and her attacks aren't preciselly weak for Tauros to shrug off. Besides, there's also how in the early game a particular one can obliterate your entire team...

Tauros is not evil like that pink cow. Tauros it is.
 
I like Tauros better. Especially after having lost to that dang Miltank in Goldenrod about 50000 times. Haha.

Miltank would probably win.. friggin things don't die. x.x
 
I like Tauros more but Miltank has the better design. Better as in much better. There is nothing special in Tauros' design.
 
I had a hard time deciding my vote, but I ultimately went with Tauros.

Which do you prefer?

I can't decide. But I'm leaning toward Tauros...

Which is more useful?

Miltank

Which would win in a battle?

Probably Tauros.
 
Which do you prefer?
Tauros, I've used one in RPs and it is currently one of the featured Pokemon in my fanfic.

Which is more useful?
Never really used either in-game much, but from the little experience I had with them I'd say Tauros cause I prefer Pokemon that hit hard.

Which would win in a battle?
Tauros - wide movepool and great powerhouse.
 
Whitney scared me as a child with her evil Miltank, so it is hard not to choose it.

Which do you prefer?

Miltank. it is pretty cute.

Which is more useful?

Miltank has milk drank, which is usable outside of battle, so I guess it.

Which would win in a battle?

Probably Tauros
 
Miltank prevails when it comes to competitive roles. Scrappy makes Seismic Toss an undisputedly reliable set-damage move, and it has Milk Drink and Heal Bell.

Tauros has high Speed, but only decent Attack. Its offensive movepool's also quite nice, when it comes to inflicting damage on whatever. But it has no priority, and no setup outside of Anger Point. And even with that Defense, can it take a critical hit? If it does, it'll just die to priority.

I still prefer Tauros, though.
 
Tauros, mainly because of the 3 tails. I also hated dealing with Whitney's Miltank.
 
This one was a hard choice. I don't have the 'anti-miltank cause of Whitney' viewpoint, since I don't think I've ever lost to her, but I still like Miltank's design. Hardest thing is Tauros looks cool as well, and I have used both of them waay back in the day, but ultimately I went with Tauros. It's the original and I really have no other reason :-/
 
Never really cared for either. I guess Miltank, if only because Whitney used it, giving it a noteworthy appearance. Unless you visited the Safari Zone, you never actually saw Tauros.
 
Miltank is wayyyyyy better than Tauros.
You can't drink milk from Tauros.
Tauros does not have a starring role in an episode in the anime.
Tauros looks so dumb running endlessly with other mindless Tauros.
Tauros' design is boring.
Miltank has t!ts.
 
I say Tauros. It has a much better design, imo. I find Miltank goofy looing and quite ugly.
 
Nothing personal Miltank... But I'm gonna have to go with Tauros on this one. They are both fun pokemon to use, but Tauros easily wins.
