Best Answer

In normal Chess rules, the only piece that can be "checked" ... put in check ... is the opposing King.

Technically, the King is never actually "taken", but rather put in checkmate; a state in which it is in check and no legal move to get it out of check exists. The game ends at this point, so there's little point in actually "taking" the King.
