Miltank (Japanese: ミルタンク Mirutanku) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II. Miltank is Tauros' female counterpart.

Biology

Physiology

Miltank has many similarities in appearance with a dairy cow(specifically the Jersey cow), but is predominantly pink in color, with a black hood, and a creamy underside. Miltank is both bipedal and quadrupedal, depending on their current actions.

Behavior

Most Miltanks prefer to give milk (in its case, breastfeed) to other Pokémon than humans. Their natural maternal instinct makes them one of the most protective Pokémon in terms of being their 'wet nurse'.

Evolution

Miltank does not evolve.

Trivia

  • Miltank's Silver and FireRed Pokédex entries imply that Miltank gives live birth like real-world mammals, despite Pokémon Eggs being introduced in the same generation as the former. This may be the reason why the entry was altered in SoulSilver.
  • Base on Miltank's script when it levels up in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, the nutritiousness of its milk would increase. Despite that, the potency of Milk Drink remains the same in and outside of battle.

Etymology

Miltank's name is the portmanteau of both "milk" and "tank". The "tank" part also greatly alludes to it having a very tank-like Defense stat.
