Sun Its milk is high in calories and packed with nutrients. Therefore, if you drink too much of it, you may wind up with a body like Miltank’s.
Moon Most people raise it for its milk, but it’s quite tough and strong, so it’s also well suited for battle.
Ultra Sun It produces over five gallons of milk a day. The higher the quality of the pastures it lives in, the richer and tastier its milk becomes.
Ultra Moon Its milk is delicious and chock-full of nutrients. However, if you drink too much, it could make your stomach hurt, so be careful.
Sword Miltank produces highly nutritious milk, so it’s been supporting the lives of people and other Pokémon since ancient times.
Shield This Pokémon needs to be milked every day, or else it will fall ill. The flavor of Miltank milk changes with the seasons.
