Tauros @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Body Slam
- Throat Chop
- Close Combat
- Rock Slide

The Isle of Armor DLC brought Tauros to RU, a fearsome wallbreaker that boasts a high Attack and Speed stat with vast coverage options. With its ability Sheer Force and Life Orb, Body Slam becomes a terrifying attack that devastates most switch-ins. Throat Chop and Close Combat complement Body Slam by threatening Ghost-types such as Dhelmise and Jellicent and Normal-resistant Pokemon like Rhydon and Silvally-Steel, respectively. Rock Slide rounds out the set by nailing common threats such as Braviary, Charizard, and Centiskorch. However, Tauros is susceptible to being revenge killed by faster threats such as Salazzle and Choice Scarf Passimian, so pair it with Pokemon that check them such as Jellicent and Xatu.
