WHY THE HECK DID YOU CHOICE SPECS THAT!

Ok, I just noticed that it has a freakish movepool for special attacks, and full IVs and Evs and Choice Specs, it could have 294 special attack, not the best, but movepool and speed could fill in for it

That's a lot like Aggron... Aggron learns so many Special moves that would counter his worst enemies: Surf, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Solarbeam, Flamethrower... it's truly a pity Gamefreak gave him such an awesome Special movepool, and a base 60 Special Attack.

I mean, surprise movesets like this and the Tauros could surprise someone, maybe even KO a Skarmory or Forretress... but once that happens, you become way too easily countered.
 
i'm all for giving things with good movepools favorable items, but 40 base sp atk is just too low =/

i'd leave choice specs as an option to at least 60-65 base sp atk. from then on, it's really not worth it and easily avoided/walled.

however, you could go with a mixed life orb tauros (rash nature). blissey comes in and gets a STAB return in the pooper. i see novelty in that.
 
hey, your trying to pull something that people would think is crazy too.
Its just like when i was trying to pull of a Starmie to be a wall.Havn't done much testing on it since i havn't been battling much lately.It has work pretty good in the 3-4 battles that ive had before.;)
What I do is when someone throws in a Salamence(he fears starmie)(or something else that fears Starmie)I would put in Starmie and they will ALWAYS switch out expecting me to attack them.But me knowing that they are thinking im going to attack I dont(but they switch out) and i just use a cosmic power to give me the defensive boost.And I just keep using it and when i need some HP back i just use recover and im back in business.Then i start attacking and recovering when i need to.
Anyways back on topic.This might work but im not really sure it will.Its Sp.Attack can only go up too 196 and even with choice specs i dont think it will still be too high enough to be a real threat(although it will suprise a skarmory).But if you do go ahead and use it for online battling then good luck with that.
But why did the pokemon creators give the normal typed pokes and some other pokes with very low Sp.Attack but with one of the best movepools.
 
Meh, CS = So not worth it. Ice Beam as tech to hit Garchomp or Mence or Fire Blast for Forry and Skarm coupled with Life Orb might pay off, but you should supplement that with Return and Quake to let Tauros do what Tauros does best. =O But yeah, the Nidos are a lot better for this sort of thing. Surf is not worth it on Tauros anyway and you won't fool your opponent twice with this kind of shenaningans. O=
