People never mention Tauros when it comes to forgotten Pokemon.

Isn't it one of the most obscure? It sucks, doesn't evolve into anything and has never gotten any love after gen 1.

Pokemon Go has made me appreciate a lot of forgotten mons like Tauros, Jynx, Drowzee, etc

Because literally no Gen 1 Pokemon are forgettable unless you're an 8 year old who has only ever seen the original Pokemon on Bulbapedia.

No gen 1 pokemon can be considered forgetable just because of the relative number of people that acrually are aware of it's existence.
Even if you were to say "most forgetable gen 1 pokemon" it still wouldn't be Tauros, since Ash had one. Personally I'm thinking Tangela, as it has no evolutions, no unique typing, found later in the game on a route you only use once, really had no strong showing in the anime (maybe Erika used one?).

I honestly enjoy pokemon that have no evolutions. I used to think Electabuzz and Magmar were cool as fuck because they didnt evolve. It was different. Then they fucking RUINED them.

I'm glad Tauros is still pure and doesn't have an evolution that butchers the design like this piece of trash right here >>27787668

>It sucks
The 90% usage in Gen 1 OU says otherwise. Also it's a Gen 1 monster, which leaves it exempt from the forgotten list

I´ve seen people using tauros after he got his hidden hability, anger point, in doubles, you make it Blulk on hp and def. with a choice scarf and then you hit it with a frost breath and that would be gg

Maybe now, but it was one of the top three Pokemon of Gen 1. Give it some respect, even if its time has passed.

>STAB Body Slam
>STAB Hyper Beam (that was physical)

Those were the days.

Wait what? The Safari Zone episode is the one where Ash caught 30 of them right? I remember seeing it on TV back in the day. I'm in Canada though.

Thank god he's always been useful. There must be an inside man at Gamefreak that always makes sure hes good. Slack off was amazing, Regenerator was icing on the cake, and after the Mega im just convinced there's an inside man at Gamefreak who also likes slowbro.

>This controversial episode was banned in almost all countries outside of Japan, largely due the pervasive use of firearms, which are pointed at Ash and Kaiser and fired at Jessie, James, and Meowth. Even though the scenes where Kaiser threatens Ash, Misty and Brock with his guns were intended for comic effect, the American censors still found this too dark for children. Although an English dubbed version of this episode will never be aired, dub voice actors have confirmed that it was made[citation needed]. This suggests that it was the network, and not the producers of the American show itself, who deemed it offensive. Unfortunately for fans, this episode's non-airing created a major plot hole for non-Japanese versions of the show, confusing many viewers on how, when, where, and why Ash caught thirty Tauros, although Professor Oak mentioned it once in Showdown at the Po-ké Corral.

1. It's a great design
2. It was one of the reason to pay for the Safari in the 1G
3. It helped Ash win the Orange League
