Miltank

() is a -type Pokémon introduced in Generation II. It is thought to be 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 plump, cream-colored belly/udder with four pink teats. Miltank is both bipedal and quadrupedal, similar to humans.
===Behavior===
Most Miltank prefer to give milk (in its case, breastfeed) to other Pokémon rather than humans. Their natural maternal instinct makes them one of the most protective Pokémon.
===Natural Abilities===
Because Miltank milk contains so many vitamins, nutrients, and minerals (and calories), it is often touted as a “cure-all” drink for the sick. Children are also encouraged to drink Miltank milk with the promise of growing up strong and healthy. Miltank can produce over 5 gallons of milk a day; they must be milked daily so they do not fall ill. Their milk has a naturally rich and sweet taste, and is richer and sweeter when sourced from Miltank raised in rich pastures. It is often made into yogurt for those who cannot consume it naturally. The seasons and weather also affect the flavor of their milk. It should be noted that consuming too much Miltank milk in a short period of time can result in an upset stomach. Miltank needs to be milked regularly or else it will get sick. Milking a Miltank oddly benefits from a musical background; one must pull on its udders rhythmically to extract milk efficiently.
==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.
*Based on Miltank's script when it levels up in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, the nutritiousness of its milk would increase as it gets more powerful. Despite this, the potency of Milk Drink remains the same in and outside of battle.
===Origin===
Miltank is based on dairy cows, primarily Holstein and Jersey cows.
===Etymology===
Miltank's name is the portmanteau of both "milk" and "tank" (both a storage container for liquids, such as milk, and in reference to its stout body and high Defense stat).
