Paldean Tauros has come to Pokémon Go, and unlike previous Tauros, it isn’t a simple regional variant. It's Paldean form has three unique breeds with different typings and exclusive regional availabilities; Aqua, Blaze, and Combat

In this sighting, we'll break down everything there is to know about collecting Paldean Tauros, including tips on filling your Pokédex, locating each breed, and how to take them down in raids.

How to Catch Paldean Tauros in Pokémon Go

Paldean Tauros is available as part of the Stunning Styles event in April 2025, and the only way to catch it is by participating in three-star raids. After defeating it in a raid, you'll have a limited number of Premier Balls to catch it. Try using Razz Berries or Golden Razz Berries to increase your odds. Since three-star raid bosses are easier, it is advisable to give them a shot with other players to increase your chance of success.  In case you do not have local acquaintances to raid with, Remote Raid Passes combined with Poke Genie can be used to join international raids. Because each breed of Paldean Tauros is regionally exclusive, using Remote Raid Passes might be the only way to catch all three unless you plan to travel.

Paldean Tauros Regional Availability

Each breed of Paldean Tauros is tied to a specific part of the world. Here's where each one can be found:

• Aqua Breed – Western Hemisphere
• Blaze Breed – Eastern Hemisphere
• Combat Breed – Iberian Peninsula

Players in Spain and Portugal can potentially access both Aqua and Combat Breeds. Everyone else will need Remote Raid Passes or international travel to complete the set.

Best Movesets for Paldean Tauros

While Paldean Tauros may not shake up the meta, it still deserves a strong moveset if you plan to use it in battles.

Combat Breed

• Fast Move: Double Kick
• Charged Moves: Close Combat and Earthquake

Aqua Breed

• Fast Move: Double Kick
• Charged Moves: Earthquake and Trailblaze

Blaze Breed

• Fast Move: Double Kick
• Charged Moves: Earthquake and Trailblaze

Double Kick is the recommended fast move across all three breeds due to its high energy generation and synergy with Fighting-type charged moves.

Final Tips

Capturing all three regional variations of Paldean Tauros is nearly impossible without traveling internationally, as Remote Raid Passes are practically necessary. Mewtwo and other Psychic-type Pokémon are excellent counters for all breeds, so they are a good choice for Picking them up during the raid. Unlike the Combat Basin, which is exclusive to the Iberian Peninsula and therefore the most difficult to capture, the Aqua and Blaze Breeds are more plentiful around the world. Even if you have the original Kanto Tauros, it’s said that the Paldean form is distinct from it and is an eye-catcher for collectors; therefore, it is definitely worth capturing. In any case, this is a fantastic chance to catch new Pokémon and add a sleek new skin to your collection.
