Overview |
Miltank are common on farms and ranches, where they are raised for their highly nutritious milk. 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. Their milk has a naturally rich and sweet taste, richer and sweeter when sourced from Miltank raised in rich pastures, and is often made into yogurt for those who cannot consume it naturally. It should be noted that consuming too much Miltank milk in a short period of time can result in an upset stomach. Curiously, when around young kids or Pokémon, Miltank will produce more milk than usual. Farmers use this to their advantage, opening up their farms as petting zoos and encouraging parents to take their kids to visit. Their sturdy bodies make them well-suited for children. Milking a Miltank oddly benefits from a musical background; one must pull on its udders rhythmically to extract milk efficiently. The most common brand of commercial milk is Moomoo Milk, made from the Miltank of MooMoo Farms on Johto Route 39.
